@Stray Glad you had a great time. I've only traveled in the country since the pandemic, but am going to the Quebec Christmas Market in December. We can't hide forever.
Have a happy birthday today!!

@Stray I follow an American who lives in Italy and she often comments on how seriously the Italians are about Covid. She rolls her eyes at some of the stories out of the US (although, to be fair, those stories are a bit biased.) I hadn't heard much about Croatia. I was pretty sure they opened early to Americans, so I appreciate your commentary about their safety measures.
Happy you had a great time. It must have been incredible being there with slightly less crowds (although cruise ships have been back for a while and they bring in the tourists). I too just got back from a week in Kauai and am planning an overseas trip in November that, like you, will require many tests while there. Although I didn't need to get tested (as I'm fully vaccinated), I still got a PCR before I got on the plane to Hawaii because I think that's what a responsible traveler should do (but I don't get up in arms if others don't).
How crowded were your flights? I personally had three seats to myself both up and back from Kauai (don't laugh - I took Southwest!) although my flight to Vegas was packed.

@StrayThanks for the info. I didn't know about the vaccine expiration dates. I'm getting close to that. number. I had my second shot of Moderna on Feb 9. Can't get my booster until Moderna is approved. Good to know.

I love to travel more than hubby. We have been to Europe twice and thank the lord we went when we did. I would go back but he said he saw enough.
Spent 2 weeks in July (before all the craziness started again) in the Adirondacks but that is the extent of our travels during COVID. Wanted to go to Maine or MA this Sept/Oct but we decided against it. We are 68 and 74, fully vaccinated and basically healthy but still are hesitant. We spend LOTS of time with our 2 grandkids who are just 3 and 5 so we need to be extra careful...Hopefully next year!

Thank you for the helpful information. I will be traveling to Greece in April, so I will make sure to see what the requirements are to travel to their country, I was concerned when you wrote that you can't be more than 270 days past your last vaccination. I know it's a different country but you never know what the rules will be. I am fully vaccinated and will make sure to jump through whatever hoops are required so that I may enjoy my vacation.

Just returned from Europe and I plan to travel internationally at least once a year. Life is short.
