We had tickets to Indonesia for summer vacation, but the airlines canceled 75% of their schedule. Then they added a mandatory quarantine for everyone, so we just canceled the trip. We are settling for a 16 day JW Marriott resort staycation
Light years ahead of Maggiano's and their boring offerings!
We did Thailand during the pendmic and pre-vaccine (Dec 2020 - February 2021) and went through a 15-day quarantine but it was worth it as Thailand was empty and without the Chinese, sex-tourists, and South-Asian zero-sum tour groups! It was worth it, our best trip to Thailand ever even though we spent $7K to get there (including the 15 days full board quarantine for 4 people)!
This late lunch occurred after a 2+ hours city walking tour where we walked from the Spanish steps to St. Peter's. Was very proud of ecery one for not complaining about walking in the hot sun and treated them to this nice lunch!
