You guys should definitely keep your pre-trip reports going!
Hi Carole!
We made the decision to cancel as well ( in June). We were so looking forward to our trip. Oh well........ perhaps we can’t visit Universal in the new year. I love reading your pre-trip reports so........ keep them coming!!!! I‘m going back to some of your “ oldie but goodie” trip reports and re-reading them. Such a “fun” read.
Stay safe,
Brenda

I'm bummed you have to postpone your September trip but completely understand seeing how bad Florida is getting... We're sorta in the same boat... We're supposed to be there Mid-October but haven't canceled yet...
And yes, please continue this PTR!!! For some of us (meaning me) it's our only contact with the outside world!!! Like Kyle I've been working from home since Mid-March and we're being told it'll be Mid-January before we're back in the office...
We are going forward with our trip at the end of the month. We are driving, not flying, and staying in a rental house. I think that will minimize a good bit of exposure risk. I'll be sure to let everyone know what it's like there!
Andrea, that is fabulous!!!
Being in a rental home and driving certainly gives you much more choices and options with this!!! Yes, you can isolate when you feel like it.......
I`m glad to hear you haven`t cancelled and feel comfortable enough to go......and I think if you do feel comfortable, no need to cancel.
Oh you have to update us with what it`s like......I know more than a few of us will look forward to hearing how much fun you`ll have!!! And first hand opinions on everything. By all accounts the parks are doing a grand job at coping with all of this.....
And it`s so good to hear of someone who hasn`t cancelled today, that is some happy news!!!!
Thanks, Carole! Of course, I'm a little bit nervous about travel, but our area is a Covid hotspot right now anyway, so it's probably not that much different. We are going to mask up and wash up and socially distance our butts off! I'm happy to report about it when we get back and answer any questions. We will only be going to SeaWorld, Aquatica, and Busch Gardens, so I won't be able to address anything at Universal.
Well we never get tired of food, drinks or the smiling faces of Kyle, Carole and Tom so bring it on Carole..
It could be like the movie "The Neverending Story (trip report)"
@schumigirl haven't been on for a while, still loving your pre trip report of an unknown date. We finally decided to cancel Disney for multiple reasons. Briefly entertained UO, but didn’t want the family to not love UO due to masks and distancing. So we made the decision to enjoy a beach vacation! At a beach I wouldn’t have ever known of if not for you! We have a condo booked at New Smyrna! I’m a little excited. Hopefully we can tour Kennedy Space Center. If I can figure out how to post a picture I’ll post our view. They have a rocket launch scheduled the week we are there, can’t wait.
Thank you for keeping this thread going. I agree the folks that post are so kind and encouraging.
that’s the spirtso we contacted Virgin and changed our September flights to an open ticket. Virgin have made this process really easy, and as soon as our dates are released for next September we`ll get that trip booked up!!!
Yep, that’s the best way to tap out on a vacation.And strangely, once that was done, we both felt a tremendous relief.......the decision was made and it was our decision. Sure, the flight ban might still be extended and that was always a risk, but seeing how things are in Florida made the final decision for us.
You’ve come up with some classics lolalso need to change the title......again........ I may give it a temporary one meantime........that`ll work!!!!
hate that it’s happened so much it’s become the new normal. That said, there is a whole world of difference/logistics coming from another country.Don`t cancel untill you really have to. Who knows what it`ll be like then. If it`s worse then at least it`ll be an easy decision, but it could be a whole lot better. Fingers crossed....I`ve heard enough of folks having to cancel trips.
The boards do focus on the parks, always nice to read when people explore outside the bubble(s).It`s funy, a lot of the PM`s I get asking about things after I write about them in the trip reports are commonly about from places outside the parks.....and NSB got a lot of questions when we had gone there.......KSC too
that’s the spirt

So good to see you Minnie!!!!
lol....an unknown date is also a good name to fit into a title.....
I can understand you cancelling Disney. And I agree about UO maybe not being the best time to experience it. But.......sounds like a fabulous trip you have planned now!!!!
LOVE New Smyrna Beach.......and being close to see KSC will be wonderful and to time it for a launch will be amazing for sure. KSC has been one of our most favourite places to visit outside the parks, truly phenomenal place to spend a couple of days.

I`m so happy to hear you are going there .....it is so beautiful. Many say the Gulf is nicer, and it might be, I like both coasts to be honest, but NSB just wowed us a lot.
Please....please....please....please.....this could go on a while......lol......come back and tell us all about it......I do hope you have the most amazing time!!!! I am so excited for you.......when do you go??
Yep, will definitely keep this one going.......and glad you`re here too.......
We arrive Sunday! Definitely planning JBs fish amp and KSC. Trying to not make too many plans and just wake up and see what we feel like doing. However, still checking out restaurant reviews and leaving room for a trip to Disney Springs or Citywalk if the family wants to take a lil road trip.
I thought of you and Tom immediately when I heard the news today about Horror Nights being canceled. I suppose it makes your September cancellation a little easier to be at peace about.☺
