Default Anyone else planning travel after their Covid vaccination?

.
.
Tomorrow we will both have our second Moderna vaccination. Done. We have planned and booked air to go visit the 'kids & grandkids' - Our 4 kids & 8 G-kids. In June<>July, to L.A. then to Seattle, then to St Louis, then to Exeter N.H. Decided that after a full year of yada-stuff and limited travel - we're DONE with that. Even though none of our kids or g-kids will no doubt not get the vaccine by then - so be it. We'll all be just fine.

We also have a credit with Royal Carribean and will book a cruise, probably for early 2022 - if they open cruises THIS year, we want to wait.

Anyone else planning travel after getting vaccinated?
..................................

Also in the News today (not that it had ANY bearing on our decision...>

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released guidelines Monday designed to ease restrictions for Americans who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

The agency’s guidance state those who have received a full course of COVID-19 vaccine may get together with other fully vaccinated individuals in small groups inside their homes without masks or physical distancing. They can also visit with unvaccinated people from one other household who are at low risk for severe disease.

The guidelines also say fully vaccinated people don’t need to quarantine or take a COVID-19 test if they’ve been exposed, unless they’re symptomatic. However, they should still monitor for symptoms for 14 days even if they're not in quarantine.

“You can visit your grandparents if you’ve been vaccinated and they have been, too,” CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said in a White House briefing Monday. “If grandparents have been vaccinated, they can visit their daughter and her family even if they have not been vaccinated, so long as the daughter and her family are not at risk for severe disease.”

I had my second shot on February 19 and my husband got his yesterday. I officially declare March 21 to be Forget Fauci Day. It’s time to get on with our lives. I’ll mask and social distance when necessary but it’s time to see family whether or not they are vaccinated. I don’t have forever to wait for the whole world to be given the vaccine.

Considering a road trip out west someplace when it gets warmer just not sure about staying in hotels right now.

We do have a cruise booked in December and will see if they will allow cruising than.

Not much change, we were with grands all last year until October. Never been on a cruise. No plans for much travel, everyone coming here, cause it’s still really cold where they live. One vaccinated, other half, will not be.

We never stopped traveling. We went to Mexico in September, been to MA every two months, Biloxi/New Orleans for 4 nights and just got back from Las Vegas for 6 nights.
We havent been vaccinated yet. Well, hubby has had one shot.
We mask where we must.
That being said, i wouldnt cruise for free. I hated it the one and only time we went on one. Looking to spend 3 weeks in Curacao in the summer.

No. Still risky even after fully vaccinated. Pfizer and and Moderna vaccines have 95% efficacy. Behave like you’re one of the 5% failure group.

Why would anyone listen to what the CDC says. They are not a government agency and they are in the business of pumping out vaccines. They are basically a warehouse. But people
Keep buying into this smoke and mirrors
