I love to travel, which is why this current pandemic is a little difficult for me to cope with. In the meantime, I have to get used to enjoying the homebody lifestyle, LOL.

I went home (Central America) to visit my parents and in-laws in March and came back a few days before everything shot down, so I am not thinking on any long distance trip right now.  We always go to the beach on the summer and stay for 4 or 5 days, this year we might do a short trip, for a day and back.  Things are not  totally good yet to plan anything more than that, specially with my granddaughter been high risk.

I have two vacations planned, and I will be going...with mask, hand sanitizer, and spray disinfectant in hand.

I love to travel, but for now I am staying home; as of right now I have no plans to fly on plane  this year. I generally take amtrak when going home to visit family but may opt to drive, just waiting a little longer to see how I feel about it. This pandemic has really  changed the way we live and  adopting to a new normal.

Right now I would rather stay at home. The world is not safe any more.  And it has nothing to do with a flu virus. I have been reading online where a lot of people, especially if they have plenty of room, are making their back yard in to a vacation area with basically like a mini park in their own back yard.

    Stay at home for now! I love to travel but it is too much trouble for now.
Checking your temperature at many points, no mask-no entry-no service,
asking you if you are sick when you are not and more. It is just too much hassle!

Hello! :D :)

I mean definitely no long over night travels but a nice trip to the beach or a close party is fine. I really don't think this will be all over next year either. It will definitely takes some time ya. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

I'm not a big traveler, but it would really come down to where I was going. I'm not afraid to go out in public, but really want to avoid the large mass of people.

I did so much traveling in my life, I just need a break. I am glad things are shut down for this year. It gives me an excuse to stay home.

Stay home. It's getting worse out there.

We had travel plans, but cancelled them.  Staying home this year is our plan.

So far still staying home and away from large groups.  I may take a weekend trip before the year is up to celebrate my anniversary.
Title: Re: travel or stay at home
Post by: JaniceSW on July 02, 2020, 12:45:45 pm
I had my first international trip planned for March 31, 2020.  Of course, not only did I cancel, but my tour company cancelled almost exactly while I was making the call to do so.  I had been looking forward to this for almost ten months.  To say I was disappointed is an understatement.  I have been somewhat sad ever since.

However, my daughter, who was going to travel with me, and I are planning another trip with the same tour company.  We have a voucher for 105% of what we originally paid which doesn't expire until Dec. 31, 2021.  The trip just has to be booked by then, not necessarily completed.  My daughter and I have agreed we aren't interested in doing any actual travel before June or July, 2021.  We are going to be looking at our options soon!

We're thinking about renting a cabin & taking a short road trip in August, something simple & not in a heavily populated area that is relatively close by -- to hike & just get away.  Hopefully it works out :)

No this year my mom and I are choosing to stay home and not take a vacation. It's disappointing but just too dangerous in the state we usually travel in.

I've started taking more local trips but have been very conservative with the covid 19.

I don't plan on travelling anywhere until I get vaccinated against the coronavirus. Travelling on public transportation puts you in close contact with others and travelling by car forces you to overnight in places that may carry the virus. It's just too scary to travel.

Oh I am definitely staying at home.  I go to the grocery store once or twice a month during "senior" hour but I don't go anywhere otherwise.  I just feel safer staying at home.

Stay at home when possible.  I too need a vacation badly but I just don't consider it safe yet.

The beach sounds lovely.  Please remember to social distance when possible and mask up whenever others outside your household are near.

I love traveling. I can't wait to go to the beach next month.

I'm hoping they have a vaccine by the end of this year so we can fully reopen next year.

That depends on the state of the Sundance festival for next year but other than that, I'm staying my a** home.

Traveling is on a low priority for most people I know.  People have small gatherings in backyards, but large family reunions have been canceled this year.

As long as I can drive there and stay at one of our Worldmark Condos, I trust their cleaning process. I wear my mask and follow all the social distancing to feel safe, but we enjoyed the beach a couple of times this year already.

Not sure if the time is right for traveling.  Even if the people are wearing a mask, it's still a risk.

Fortunately at 82 the stakes are a lot lower than when you have a long life ahead of you.

I have lost the desire to travel since BC - Before Covid.  Years ago, I had no problem packing up and taking a trip somewhere for a few days or so.

Now I still enjoy day trips with my husband.  We'll pack the bikes and go cycling on the beautiful trails in our area.  Other times we would spend the day at one of the beaches or state parks. 

As of late, however, we have not taken any trips; even for a few hours.  We are talking about going on a bike trip soon though.

Travelling is my most favorite thing to do in life, but I consider it too dangerous to travel now what with COVID-19 being all over the place. I had to cancel two trips this year and won't plan another one until there is a vaccine and I am able to get it.

Can't wait to travel to Vermont and NH this Fall. We pushed the trip forward with Covid in April, but we are going this time. We are driving and have a VRBO so there shouldn't be any problems. A little concerned about getting a hotel on the way up there and on the way back, but hopefully it won't be an issue. I am thankful that our trip to the Canadian Rockies isn't until next year. I would be furious if all this nonsense kept us from going there. ugh.

Better to travel. Everyone is tired of this pandemic, but it seems to be getting back to normal. If you have the opportunity to travel, do it because not everyone has it. When I traveled on cruises, I was stuck there for six months because of covid. But I got lucky and found a sweet thousand-dollar airline check. Expensive but safe at home. You can visit this page (https://www.travelsafe-abroad.com/united-states/st-louis/), because this site has provided me with safe places to travel and travel. It's friendly and accessible. I have been using this source for a long time.

We rented an airBNB and stayed for a few days at South Lake Tahoe.  We felt it was the safest way to go since we could have as much  or little with others as we wanted.  It was our same group who had basically been in a pod for 18 months.  (a relative got sick and we were locked down to care for them before the pandemic got into full swing.)   Did all of our own cooking at the house, stayed in 2 house on the same block, went to the lake and did kayaking and hiking.  Very little contact with any one else.  Got out of town just be fore the earthquake, we did see the big fire that is still burning across the lake in the distance.
