can’t decide where to go for a relaxing getaway
So here’s the deal: I’m trying to plan a little escape for me and my husband at the end of May, but honestly, I’m stuck. We’re in South Florida, and we’ve already hit all the usual weekend spots—think Naples, the Keys, Orlando, you name it. But now, every place I look up either has scary crime stories, is packed with tourists, or just feels like a total tourist trap. I want somewhere pretty, but not overrun, and definitely not sketchy.
To make things trickier, I’m feeling super anxious about flying lately. All these news stories about plane issues and staff shortages have me on edge. I just want a peaceful break, but I’m tired of feeling like there’s nowhere left that’s both safe and enjoyable. Right now, I’m eyeing New Orleans and the Florida Panhandle, but even those have mixed reviews—some folks say they’re amazing, others warn about crowds or crime.
Has anyone actually been to NOLA or the Panhandle recently? Did you feel safe? Was it worth it, or did you wish you’d stayed home? Or is there some hidden gem I’m missing that’s not a total zoo? I’d love to hear your real experiences, not just the glossy travel ads. Help a tired couple out!
