And good luck getting a refund from a Mexican hotel when you might not be able to get there/back once travel restrictions tighten up with mandatory quarantine provisions.
We are keeping our fingers crossed about further travel restrictions/quarantines right now. By mid June I was originally hopeful things would be winding down, no big deal; starting to look more likely that things will be a lot worse instead. Not much we can do at this point other than wait and see. We’ve got a fair bit already spent on the trip, but won’t be making any more non refundable payments until we have a better sense of whether or not we will still be able to go. I’m trying to keep it all in perspective though, lots of folks are dealing with much worse fears over this than just a few thousand dollars and a fishing trip. Still, it’s stressful.
