We have never been "safe" our entire lives, not travelling, not driving your car to work. Our whole life is a risk. But yes, if Florida opened up tomorrow back to its 2019 ways, then I think I would be among many people tripping over themselves booking a vacation just to get away from what we have in Ontario. That was the point of asking, I want to get a gauge on how things are down there from first hand experience.
Good post, and thank you. I agree completely. I live close to Niagara Falls (Canadian side) and I can assure you that is a town even in the best of times that is fully reliant on tourism. With these draconian restrictions such as businesses being closed that means all of the tourist attractions (Haunted Houses, Ripley's, theatres, etc.) are closed and that is a big part of the main strip. I too would love to support the tourism industry as these are our the same people who work in factories, they have families too. But I can't. But if we are going to spend a few thousand dollars for a family vacation I want to make sure it is worth it in Florida as well. I hear that Florida is a lot like, say, Sweden, has been this whole time and it is good to hear some first hand information before going down there.
