Is It Worth It?


 

 IF, and that is a really big if, I get to where I'm going, it probably will be worth it.


But right now, with all the Covid testing required, what country requires what, where to get the tests, etc.,  I am at the farthest extent of my tether.   Just to throw a half dozen monkey wrenches into the mess, I had a vaccine booster Tuesday and spent the next 35 hours in bed with lots of joint pain, a general malaise,  and a big swelling on my arm.

Technology has passed me by and that makes everything much more difficult.   Even recorded telephone answering devices drive me bonkers.   Talking to a real person at the other end of the line is next to impossible.

Add to that, applying online for visas is a nightmare the first, second and third times you try.   I did finally get the visas so now everything depends on the Covid test results and whether I get them with the allotted time frame.

 

So, with all this whining and sniveling, I leave you with these because it reduces my stress level an iota to look at them.
