Saturday Smiles: Looking Forward to Traveling Again!

Good morning Alexandra. While we can't wait, we will still be more selective than in the past. Enjoy your day!

Alexandra-Susan Sontag's resonates with me. I am tentatively planning a trip all the way up the east coast to Vermont and Maine next year. I know you and Ron will be happy to be traveling again as well. Happy Saturday.

Can't wait to travel again too. Had to cancel a trip to Skandanavia this summer. Hoipe to go next year. New Zealand is calling too, but until we get a handle on the virus we sit and wait.

Alexandra, I know of some that have already taken a mini-vacation. but it's not in our plans yet.

Hello Alexandra and Ron - I like each of the quotes as well as the sentiment you expressed in your post.  This one "hit me" today:

"I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list."

~ Susan Sontag

Everywhere resonates with me too. Sean and Becky and the boys said the jet was not crowded and they had a very nice, but long, flight to Hawaii.  They staying at their Uncles's house and swimming in the pool everyday and the boys are doing school via computer. I believe their 14 day quarantine is nearly satisfied - then they move to another property they rented and will then be out in the ocean surfing again. 

I think that the travel industry is going to explode after all of this covid fear passes, there are so many that are anxious to travel.

The travel bug disease is one I am happily afflicted with.  Went to Maui in January and then just small trips to San Diego to see mom. I am thinking a cruise in '22!

Hello A and Ron and thanks for sharing the quotes with us in the rain today.  Traveling is fun but be safe.

I like your quote selections.

We have missed all of the day trips that have been typical for us during our retirement years.

Hi Ron and Alexandra- I know how excited you both are to be able to travel again. I loved all of the quotes. 

I have two trips scheduled for 2021 that I had to postpone in the dismal year of 2020. I do want to get traveling again too Ron and Alexandra Seigel 

Hi Ron and Alexandra,  We look forward to traveling again as well.  Thanks for the quotes - they are great, I especially like the one from Mark Twain. 

Hey Alexandra & Ron loved all the quotes but had to mention:

"Go at least once a year to a place you've never been before."

~ Dalai Lama

I guess the Dailai Lama does not live in California:)) and has not heard of our shutdown:)) 

Morning Alexandra.

Getting the "This site is under heavy load" again this morning.  While I haven't seen everything I've wanted to, I'm owrking on it

We keep talking about trips we would like to take - nice to dream but it would be better to do!

Ahhhh the travel bug!  We got it bad this summer and it felt so good to just go - on a whim.  We didn't go very far but it was enough to explore and enjoy things we had never seen before.

"I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list."

Even small jaunts refresh you, Ron and Alexandra Seigel ... hoping that much-needed getaways are once again a possibility for more soon.

I believe Mr Newsom is contemplating to have a State wide SHUT DOWN again. At least up where we are.  Many people are RUSHING to get a SHORT HAIR CUT as they are likely to be the first place to close.

My neighbor is a 401K pension manager for winearies. Apparantly he has Salinas produce account as well.  Told me he wore two N95 masks with finger cots and gloves. Ample spray can of virus killers.  I wish him the best.
