Gym's Essential Traveling Tips:
It is important to inform the reader, that in these uncertain times of Covid, that there are a few new traveling principles that one should adhere to, so that your trip goes smoothly. They are as follows::
1. Always remain calm;
2. Get Vaccinated as many times as you can;
3. Get a PCR test as often as your nose and throat will allow; and
3. Don't lose your iPhone!
Gym feels sorry for anti-vaxxers, they haven't been able to travel, at all!
And then there are people with no cell phones, forget about it!
In this age of down-loading QR codes, you can't even get a sundowner without downloading the QR code for the cocktail list. Some places even use an e-key to open your hotel room. For god sakes, what is the world coming to?
Having said all that, it is important that we also regale the benefits of the new e-society:
1. You can access your local newspaper and get real time news from home when your are 12 time zones away and your wife is talking in her sleep beside you in your Heavenly Bed;
2. You can trade stock like the baby in the E-trade commercial without phoning a broker and incurring long distance charges;
3. You can download the last bit of bank data you need to complete your tax return and even file the darn thing electronically;
4. You can try to take underwater pictures of parrotfish with your iPhone in a special dive bag and darn-it they work; and finally,
5. You can WhatsApp your new granddaughter and see her smiling face in real time from thousands of miles away.
Just a few rants from Gym....
