Where Are We Going Next?

Aloha Everyone,

According to the latest news coming from the European Union (EU) countries, each is desperately trying to attract vaccinated Americans to visit. While we seem to have lots of options, the entry rules could change without any warning. We are therefore exploring other options.

J.J. and I will be wrapping up our Ecuador stay and returning to the USA on 30th of June. The months of June, July and August are the height of the summer travel season. This means prices for airline tickets and hotel accommodations will increase as demands accelerate. J.J. usually begin booking our tickets within 2 months of our travel dates and secures accommodations which maybe canceled without penalties.

One of our friends, Lee from Canada who is an avid traveler, is in the same predicament. We are scheduling a FaceTime with her to compare notes. In an ideal world, the three of us were planning to rendezvous in Israel and perhaps reconnect with each other somewhere in the Greek islands in 2021.

I feel extremely fortunate and grateful that J.J. is recovering to the point where he can make our next travel plans. His research is very thorough. So wherever we will head out, it should be an amazing adventure.

Aloha -- Cathi
