We took the grandson to Disney for a week over Christmas break. Probably not the brightest, but a week before Christmas, omicron wasn’t yet such a huge thing. We’re vaccinated and boosted, wore good masks, didn’t eat in restaurants (had a place with a kitchen), and seem to have come through it healthy. Truthfully, I’m more leery of my local stores where most of the red neck customers and half the employees aren’t masked correctly.
