Staycation

 

I get it.

I feel it too.

We’ve all been so confined for so long that we jumped at the first chance to actually go somewhere else and see some place different.

But I’m wondering how many of us are re-thinking vacation travel after this long weekend.

Huge crowds at the airport.

Surly seatmates on flights as airlines wedge us into ever-smaller seats no matter where we’re going.

Hours of bumper-to-bumper traffic on highways and roads.

Hidden fees and charges on our hotel bills.

Sharks biting people, in Hawaii, in Florida, in New Jersey.

Deadly rip tides drowning people all along the eastern coast.

Killer algae blooms in the ocean so you’re left to cook on a crowded beach without the ability to take a dip and cool off.

That’s why I think this ad is brilliant:

Especially the part about your dog.
