I'm going to attempt a mega multi-quote
Fist of all HAPPY 2021, although it still feels like 2020 a bit
Update, I have gotten both Covid vaccine doses, and I DID go to Coronado in for Food and Wine with hubby. The resort was beautiful and empty since it just reopened. The parks were pretty busy, a CM put it best "we are at 35% capacity (I think that's what it was when I was there...) but this time of year that is our normal capacity. So it's like a regular day. Because of lines we didn't do any rides, and we weren't comfortable going on anything indoors. We almost did the Land, and I chickened out. I know they clean the rides often, but I didn't witness it so I stayed outside and we toured a very busy world showcase and had drinks and food.
I was booked to return in March to CR, and then refurb....so it's June at the Riveria with hubby for Flower and Garden. We aren't doing a summer trip, maybe fall for Universal Halloween Horror Nights.
I feel you! These changes are not even our doing! It's crazy! I hope you get to go this year...I really hope we all get to safely travel soon

I've heard Universal is really doing well with protocols! Team members dispense sanitizer before getting on rides which is fabulous! As for Covid, there is still an awful lot of really sick Covid patients including critically ill children...so it might mean 2022 for vacation BUT I've got June booked so far....fingers crossed@pas130 wow that’s a great rate for CSR! I’ve never stayed there. so tempting isn’t it! But you have to do what’s best for you, I think I read you had the virus? Scary. Glad you got thru it. I hope a safe vaccine comes out soon.
I know, it’s pretty scary traveling now. And I’ve been waffling for months. I had this trip booked for quite awhile. Well before Covid. Sigh. It’s hard to know what to do. Easier now that I’m retired and although quarantine right before Christmas will be inconvenient I don't have the work worry.
We love HRH too. Our last stay there was great. We had pool view and could see the parks, Rip Rocket etc. Was really nice at night with all the lights. And can’t beat the short walk to the parks. Hope the pool gate will be open!
Changing my mind again so figured I'd update...so far the progression since May 2020 has been POFQ for May 2020 then switched to CSR (May 2020-cancelled), GDT (August 2020-cancelled), AOA (May 2021 - likely to cancel) and now...May 2022 here we come Swan, well that is once booking opens...

We have CBR booked for last Aug, had to change to Aug 2021, now in all probability I’ll have to reschedule again for Aug 2022. Maybe thinking of switching to an EPcot resort. I’ve always wondered about Swan/Dolphin but the daily resort fee put me off, and not many balconies. I loved B.C./YC.
And now that in 2022 no more DME....it won’t matter as much.
I love both BWV and WL, and May and August! I love Spring BUT pool time is where it's at. I can't wait to hear all about your trip!Originally Sept 2020 WL moved to Sept 2021 CR but now have two back up dates May 2021 BWV or Aug 2021 WL . Only going once - just not sure which one it will be !?!?!
