Me! I got back from Bangkok recently, before the riots and protests started, thank God! I’d hated to have been holed up in my hotel room waiting to be airlifted out of the city if it got really ugly. But now, after looking at the various political situations, I think its time for a time out holiday again.
And this time, maybe its time to venture further afield to maybe Florida where my newly married friend is living. I did call her to ask if they were hit by Gustav, but she said they were fine so I’m glad. That said, I would love to visit her some day, if not soon, then in the near future. She’s asked me to live with her but since she’s going to have a baby soon, I don’t think that’s quite a good idea for me as well as for her!
I’d probably go with vacation rentals. I read that florida vacation rentals are quite easy to find online. Staying in a rental house or apartment would give me greater flexibility to do what I want, go where I want and in general, feel less obliged to people.
Someone in the office who has just returned told me that he saved money staying at orlando vacations rentals instead of in a hotel. With a family of 6 I can imagine so! He’d have needed 3 hotel rooms instead of just one apartment. Anyway, I’ll monitor the situation here and see what happens. Maybe it’ll be time to fly away soon!
