Airline Tickets, What to do?

Sounds better then the places I go to when I traveled to Brazil.

I didn't care for Rio but you probably stayed at much nicer places then I did and you were there for fun.

 

Rio is a bit gritty, but I think its probably the most beautiful natural city on the planet. For sure I wouldn't stay in Sao Paulo or in Rio near the airport. Not sure where you stay.

 

This man knows whats good.

Brazil has a lot of cases but its pretty damn open for what it is.
A few months ago my friend was telling me bars were closed for dine in, but open for take out. It just happened they had tables outside and their online ordering was down, so you had to pay in person. Meaning you sit outside, drink, eat, and pay when leaving....

 

Guam? And from there you can hop around to a few different out of the way islands and do some incredible diving.

 

Thanks, I hope I eventually get the chance to take you up on that. Yeah, this was (originally) a big "milestone" vacation for us, and riding around on a bike was a big part of that. But, like our IOM trips, it was partly a scouting operation for coming back on our own later. In fact, we were staying an extra week on our own after the bike tour.

Hawaii was off of the radar, but might look into that. I'm in Florida, and while I know it's not Hawaii, the terms "beach" and "warm" are not all that unfamiliar to me. "Snowmobile" however...

Miami is about as far as the airport is from me, so doesn't really work.

 

Never thought of Guam, but it looks like they are still closed to visitors...

Yeah that's what my intel is saying, as well. Seems like mask-wearing is pretty lax, too. People are wearing them, but often down around the chin. Everything appears to be open.

 

Don't know if you've been to Hawaii, but it really is paradise. Pricey, though.

 

Turkey can be pretty awesome too.

 

@motion , I didn't tell you about a croissant (well, a couple) I had about a week ago. No words. That shit would get you in an airplane just to eat breakfast.

 

Niiiiiiice... they are an art form. Damnit, 14 months since I've been in Europe.

 

Alaska, even over Hawaii!

Beautiful!

 

Vietnam is lovely all around. Unspoiled, lovely people, friendly, safe, great food. Really hard to beat. My dream is to fly my 2 sons and my father in law to Saigon, buy 4 beater motorbikes and ride them to Hanoi.

 

Just noticed this. So Ireland (not NI) are not under the same "lockdown" state as the UK? I'll have a look at that.

Update... Nevermind... https://www.dublinlive.ie/news/health/ireland-lockdown-2021-full-list-19504696

 

Oh hell no! Only place I would not even fly into and change planes in.

Tried robbing me in the f@ckin' Hotel instead of at least waiting until I went outside!

 

Damn! Never had a problem there, although they tried to kidnap my wife. I want to ride my motorbike across the country.

 

It's where I started ordering my Heineken with no glass and I'll open it myself at the table/ seat. It's a habit that I still stick with.

 

Yeah, that's a minor in convenience.

 

Yeah, you stinky cheese eaters can really do up baked goods.

and your smokes are awesome.

I'm hungry now.

 

Having know people that have done that, it's better to go north to south.

All the south to north people are dumping their bikes in Hanoi, so picking one up is cheap and easy
