Are You Travelling Again?

Categories
Lifestyle

My family and I went to Jamaica in February for a much needed vacation. We planned this vacation over a year ago. Given the COVID concerns at the time we planned the trip, and our knowledge when we were planning that there would be a grandchild travelling with us, keeping the family COVID safe was a huge consideration. And, so, we wound up renting a private home for all of us to stay in, which also had access to a private beach club.

 

The entire family loved the trip, most of our children even commented that it was one of the best we have taken together. In looking back, I am trying to determine what made it so special for them. Was it the nature of the accommodations, which were beautiful, or was it the time together? I believe it was a combination of both. In addition, I strongly believe that my family just needed to finally take some time to get away together, enjoy one another, and just relax.

 

 

 Have you begun travelling again?  Where are you going?

I never really stopped completely other than for the first 6 months of the Pandemic. The crazy thing is, now that we moved, we find traveling either not as necessary (except for my work) or just not able to. My wife who recently changed jobs, now has to accrue vacation time again. Such is nature of things. Thankfully we got to visit Fred in Key West for a quick weekend before she started that job.

I have been to see the kids in CA and GA. Your trip sounds wonderful and it seems like that is the type of vacation many are opting for - a home away from home and away from crowds. And you made memories which is key.

Been traveling throughout the Pandemic. Adjustments to improve safety is that I have only traveled domestically and have been staying at timeshares instead of hotels to avoid elevators and crowds.

Like Dan, we traveled all the way through except for the first six months. Mom and dad in Florida, kids all over, visiting friends. Never had a problem, felt safe in the planes (they keep telling us all the air is cleaned and recirculated every two minutes or something like that. Lol). And like you say Rona, being together with family is the most important thing. sounds like you had a lovely vacation! Special memories…
