Haven't been to the USA since 2016. Was just starting to warm up to the idea. Yeah... no longer.

We miss Vegas shows. Cirque du Soleil apparently has a really good one there.

Vegas sucks. It's just too over the top now, with the big ultra conglomerate casino concentration, and all the big elitist shit like F1. It's not the Vegas of yesteryear.

I'm supposed to go for a work event later this month, but I'm shirking it off. I'm not spending a dime or expelling carbon dioxide there. I don't really do well in foreign environments that are full of people threatening mine.

Add us to the list.

Mom's got a bit of a best-before date for travel. She wants to see hanuama bay again. She can't do 4 years.

We may crack.

Me and Florida. Dad wants to go there don't know if he'd make 4 years. Might have to just do it.

Cuba is orders of magnitude more affordable.

Sucks because Seattle is such a nice day trip from Vancouver by train or car. I have stopped planning trips to the US but I have one more weekend trip to SF booked from months ago, still debating whether to cancel.
