We just arrived on property for our stay at a treehouse. Due to the private entrance with no guard house there is no temperature checks upon entry through the gate with your magic band. We noted signs stating the Covid risks and symptoms. There was also a sign that the walkway to DS is currently closed. The walkway into Saratoga is open however.
We will be going to grand Floridian cafe for dinner our first time dining in since the lockdowns began. We are prepared with masks, wipes and hand sanitizer. I have a gluten allergy so if anyone is interested what the menu looks like PM me and I will send it to you. It was so nice to see the WDW sign when we arrived on property.
Have a wonderful time! And keep us updated!
 
I think you're confused by what I was saying. I wasn't saying that anyone's point of view was less valid than mine. As a matter of fact, I said that the arguments and statistics presented might change the mind of someone who is on the fence, like me. I was pointing out, however, that I see a lot of debating, and those people who are already talking about pushing mask our quarentine mandates or dismissing numbers won't change their minds no matter what you, or anyone has to say, so some of the back and forth I see is fruitless. Irresponsible people are going to go no matter what, and they are the most dangerous ones.
But maybe the "You" at your end of the post wasn't directed at me so much, and the "you" in your statements are those that are hostile and unwilling to accept facts?
Correct. Not directed at you. My apologies for not being more clear
 

I am in a state that is almost opened, we’re at stage 4.5 and in two weeks we hope to be at stage 5. My county and city are currently not requiring masks. I typically don’t wear one, I do social distance, I use hand sanitizer all the time, I have a small business I don’t require masks but we do sanitize with Lysol and wipe down everything after a client leaves the office. My kiddos 4 and 6 go to a daycare that I cannot walk in without a mask. This is my church’s preschool that we are now using as a daycare. I’m on the school board and we have strict rules. Here’s the deal, I think mask wearing is a personal choice. However, If I’m in a place of business or if our mayor or governor requires a mask, I will comply.

We are scheduled to arrive on July 28th. I have ordered face guards for myself and my kids, my daughter has asthma and isn’t doing well With masks. I have one layer and 2 layer masks being made for us right now. I’ve ordered a ton of fun scent hand sanitizer and have stocked up on wipes. I’m renting a car. I’ve also got a large stroller that I will be pushing my very tall kiddos in so they are less likely to be in people’s spaces and others in theirs. We talk everyday about the new rules. I’ve told them over and over again that mommy will take them out of the parks if they don’t comply and that a cast member is the least of their concerns if they don’t follow Disney’s rules. No exceptions. I’ve warned them that we may not even get to go in the parks or at all.
My point is we’re a disney family. We’re blessed. I’ve owned DVC for almost 15 years. They have reaped that benefit. As much as I hate masks, I respect the measures put in place to protect the cast members and guests. I’m sure we’re going to be hot and uncomfortable but I plan on being super careful and I accept the risk. We won’t be able to quarantine for 14 days after we get back, but we will for 6 and I will be wearing a mask in my office and our daycare will be requesting my kids wear a mask for an additional 8 days, and They will have temps taken every 2 hours. I’m ok with all of these measures. What is right for some may not be right for others. I respect everyone and what they feel comfortable with, and I’m not going to feel guilty. I wish everyone going in the next few months a happy, and healthy trip.

May I ask, what state are you in?

Great perspective and preparedness 🙂
 
What they're doing is cancelling & consolidating flights. So instead of Delta having one flight every hour going from ATL to MCO, they have like three total for the day. That's one big reason you're seeing packed flights. :/
At least through September, Delta has reduced capacity on their flights, including blocking the middle seats. They’re also being great about flight changes.

I have 2 questions for you. Does your state require 14 day quarantine upon returning from FLA? Don’t think you said
And is asthma considered an underlying condition that could be complicated by covid?

the lobby at the GF is empty save for a few guests passing through every so often. Sorry I couldn’t figure out how to get it rotated properly.

We saw this creative magnet on a car we parked behind and had to share. The small words above Mickey say “shut down 2020”

I really hope they bring the orchestra/pianist back once the parks open and capacity is a bit more.

I’m in the great state of Indiana 😁. I’m a transplant from Illinois, and I’m slowly becoming a Hoosier after almost 12 years lol. We do not have a 14 day quarantine, that is just me being cautious and respectful of where we will have just visited and the fact that Florida is a current “hotspot”. My daughters asthma is triggered by changes in climate. Here inIndiana we go from 70 degrees to 100 in 2 to three days. It’s a crap shoot on what the weather will be. I’ve already started special breathing treatments to open her lungs to the heat and humidity. I would and have been doing this regardless of the virus. She’s tall And heavier and I will get super dirty looks for pushing her in a stroller but I don’t care at this point. I need to make sure she’s ok breathing. So adding a mask to the equation complicates things. So, I’ve ordered a face guards or all three of us while I’m pushing the stroller and when we park and get ready to ride a ride we will have our masks.
