I know it isn't in Orlando yet but 250 miles isn't that far. I mentioned it to my wife as more of a "we might want to start paying attention to this" kind of a thing. I am sure she thinks I am trying to get out of the trip though.
Don't get me wrong: if I was in your situation, I would think twice also. I suspect in November the risk would be minimal, but if it's an avoidable risk, avoid it. Especially when you're talking about a life.

Yeah. We will see how the rest of the fall goes.

I was more thinking we just go somewhere that Zika is not yet...like Colorado in September.

or you can do that too. I had plans to go to CO in Sept a few years ago. Then all the flooding in Boulder happened the week prior.
 
I didn't run this morning because I'm supposed to do six miles and I'm avoiding it. Haven't run since last Tuesday. Convinced myself yeah sure I'll run after work. Was just outside to take a phone call and I'm already regretting this. It's too humid.
 
Having thoughts about going to Orlando this fall. My brother might not be going leaving me with no one to go on the fun adult rides (everyone else going will be in the too young or too older category).

If we bug out you can always hang out with my inlaws and I will sell you my park hopper passes.

Maybe I misunderstand what Zika is, but I thought it was only a major concern with little kids and super old people? Isn't it kind of like West Nile where yes, anyone CAN get it, but your chances as a healthy (meaning no autoimmune disorders) adult aren't incredibly slim?

it can make for babies with tiny heads and under developed brains, in a percentage of the pregnancies, if you get it before or during a pregnancy.

I mean, unless Rulzzz is not telling us something, I'm assuming he has no plans on getting pregnant, so I'm guessing he's safe.

Rulzzz wasn't worried about Zika - he was talking about his brother backing out, so everyone in his travel group is too old or too young to go on the rides he wants to go on.
Wxman is the one think about another little Wx.

And you tell me that I confuse easily. smh... ;)

I'm just proud of you for figuring out how to reply with a quote, Auntie.
