Make your own decisions depending on your medical situation. You can chat about everything aviation at a social, six-foot-distance, or from whatever distance you choose, masked or not. But, wandering the flight line, perhaps at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, sounds reasonable to me. Personally, I wouldn’t attend a concert where people are packed together, shoulder to shoulder, yelling and singing. If you’re fully vaccinated, it’s reasonably safe to attend outdoor gatherings. Fuel up your airplane after dining and spend some time, and money, at an airport-based aviation museum. Splurge on pie, order something extra to go. Most airport restaurants are now fully open-so fly out for that $100 hamburger every chance you get. Even with their best efforts, their income was reduced significantly. In my local flying area, most airport restaurants were closed during the 2020 summer flying season and open for socially distanced, outdoor dining in 2021. That’s the best thing you can do- distributing your money to those workers who have suffered through this health and financial crisis. When you fly in to visit one of our national parks, you’ll rent a car for touring, book a campsite or hotel room, and shop in the camp store or dine at the park restaurants. Each park’s operations are continually being adjusted by the National Park Service, so research the park you want to visit in advance to understand which facilities are available. Most are now open, but visitors are encouraged to wear face masks and maintain physical distance as much as possible. National park sites that are primarily museums or historic buildings were closed. For the past two summers, many parks were open to drive in, park, and hike, but most of the facilities-the visitor centers, shops, dining, and lodging-remained closed. American travelers, like me, can help make up for the drop in international visitors, making this an opportune time to visit one of our many U.S.
People from all nations of the world have had their lives disrupted by the loss of jobs, income, and family, and it’s likely that tourism from overseas will be greatly reduced for quite a while. I’m sure the staff who work in those lodges, restaurants, and souvenir shops are hurting for income after two limited tourist seasons. While we were visiting there was a mobile I Love Aruba sign parked along the trail – ideal for a photo op.I’m not one to shout, “America First!” but perhaps after this crisis, your next travel destination should be somewhere within the United States? I was planning a trip to Sicily, and even though it may be safe to travel there by the end of the year, I think I’ll head to Yosemite National Park in California instead. The trail along the Northwestern end of the island in Malmok is not just a great running trail, but it is also used for horseback riding, segway tours and sunset strolls. And each evening we were treated to a beautiful sunset right out our front door.
However, once you move beyond that unpleasantry, you soon forget all about it as you are warmed by the sun and constant Caribbean breeze.Įach morning we started the day with a really lovely walk/run along the beach and water. North of Oranjestad and the high rise hotel district, Malmok is a great, quieter section of the island.īe advised that we learned that flights arriving on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday have to endure the long and inefficient customs process at Queen Beatrix International Airport.
This Christmas our island of choice was Aruba, and our home for the week was a very nice vacation home on the beach in Malmok. Several years ago we decided to try a warm, tropical location for our Christmas celebration, and we really enjoyed it.
