    I got some made by my suitcase brand (Monos). Expensive like $80, but they are designed to fit the suitcase perfectly

    We'll be staying in Kihei (Maui). Anyone been/stayed there? It's a free timeshare stay, so we're going with that.

    Going to Florida, a few nights in Crystal River, St Petersburg. A week up in the panhandle. Still have a few days to fill.

    Kihei is nice, it's more of an area than a town though. Renting bikes or e bikes and cruising up and down it is a blast. Lahaina is the cute beach town we pictured when we booked, I would recommend checking out Lahaina for the day at least once. Also the fun of Maui for us was driving around to all beaches and finding ones that had almost no people or some of the self guided snorkel spots.

    Nice! That's what I was hoping for. Thanks for the great tips! I love the e bikes idea! I see there's a Safeway nearby. We have a full kitchen and will probably be mostly eating in.

    The panhandle is absolutely the friendliest place I've ever visited. Such warm, sincerely welcoming people in every interaction I have had. My brother-in-law lives there and we've spent some time there. We'll be scouting some areas for vacation property this trip. Haven't been much farther south than Panama City, and I would expect there's a lot of cartel crime the farther south you go.

    Politics aren’t everything.

    it has nothing to do with politics. Weird ass people, too humid and too many bugs. I’ve been there a couple times. Strange vibe

    I’ve had a few friends move there and they really love it, but I imagine it varies depending on area.

    I’ll admit though, when you hear stories about people on bath salts eating other people’s faces off or quadruple homicides being committed over a rock paper scissors match, Florida is the first place that pops into your mind.

    Friggin' New York transplants. We're trying here.

    Seriously, though. Florida is still the South.
