OK, Im onboard, sick and tired with all the Covid crap and I'm more than ready for a distraction, We had a big trip planned for this week, actually the past 2 weeks as our 3 daughters are graduating High School this year. The depressed atmosphere at our house had been getting steadily more intense since early Feb as reality set in we weren't even leaving the province, let alone going to Disney. Now, as they are all planning to continue their education next fall a new reality has risen its ugly head. As all 3 are going on to different schools, none have the same spring break.
Now this may sound like a cunnumdrum for a family vacation, it does present an interesting opportunity for their mother and I, one we wont be sharing with the girls.,...... We're going by ourselves, ALL ALONE, in late Feb of next year. To be honest Im actually quite excited, we haven't been away for anything longer than 4 days since our son was born in '99. Admittedly we will miss the constant chatter their enthusiasm and willing partners to go on rides that someone may want to sit out, What we or at least I (who does the majority of the planning) wont miss is first the cost, 3 less tickets, 1 less room and 3 less rather carniverous mouths to feed, yeah that's going to hurt. If you believe that girls don't eat haven't met all 5'7, 110lbs of our technically oldest daughter. the planning alone should be a breeze, provided Covid has been laid to rest, the logistics behind one simple dinning reservation is astronomical. The only only commonality these three share other than they same womb for 35 weeks is a love of ice cream as such the only mutually agreeable place to eat is Ghiradelli's, So lets all trudeau is telling us the truth, we have a vaccine in place, it gets into peoples arms in time to end this mess and the border finally re-opens before we celebrate another anniversary of 2 weeks to flatten the curve. 2022 may just be the year! If anyone has any suggestions for a NO KIDS trip, let us know, we are open to any suggestions
