Easter.....I was watching the first week in Dec to hit a Miami. Have some AA vouchers expiring in Nov and prices in the first week of Dec looking reasonable. Small man asking to go somewhere since he hasn't been on an international flight since before Covid.

December is good time to go. The weather does be like AC outside. You could go all about and feel nice outside. I just come back from Orlando for the August holidays and it was too hot. I was feeling exhausted by early afternoon in that heat.

I would recommend going Orlando tho. CAL have direct flight to MCO (orlando airport). Disneyworld expensive but seaworld/universal/legoland/gatorland does have good deals if you going there for like a week and staying onsite. and everything safe, like idiotproof/childproof safe. and the children does always ask for things to do and it have plenty things for them to do there. if you want a drive check out the Kennedy Space Center which is a good one too. I get a NASA cup for drinking water

I trying to understand how is it better this way . How was the normal timing less beneficisl ?

supposedly students and teachers were getting 'burnt out' with the 15-weeks in Term 1.

He might shift some of the teaching to the 12-week Term 2. If they are doing that, announce the dates now so ppl can schedule vacations or whatever.
