We have a layoff at work for 5 days. We had planned to go to Udaipur or Jaisalmer which we put down because of the cold wave, also things are costly for every tourist place here because of the new year celebrations. The hotel rent is almost double or triple times which is on normal days.
Kids are upset about the same as they were excited to go to these places. We have never visited a desert area and it was the first time we would have explored desert. Even I am upset
Has it happened to you that you might have planned a family tour and has to cancel it for any reason at the last moment.

Yes, it has. Our second time trip to Phuket had to be cancelled because of Covid and lockdown. Recently we planned for few trips but they could not work for some or the other reasons..Kids are quite justified to be upset. You have to convince them that going out in this cold wave in not safe.
Stay warm. Stay indoors.

No, that's never happened to us... probably because we don't make plans to go on vacations. If we decide to go somewhere, it is always spur-of-the-moment for us. We decide we want to go and we pack and leave. Pretty doesn't travel well anymore so we rarely go anywhere.

I'm sorry you needed to cancel your plans.
I'm sure there were many things I canceled at the last minute but I can't think of any right now.
I remember now, we rescheduled our church Christmas party due to the weather. I don't know how I could forget that. Our party is tomorrow night.

That is quite upsetting. Maybe you can plan another during the off peak season.

We were at the airport ready to scan our tickets for our flight to New Zealand for 4 weeks holiday with our accomodation & campervan whatever it was, booked in advanced. We couldn't go that Friday afternon because 1/2 of the family had our passport expired or about to be expired. THAT was a painful time when we had to pay extra extra to get our passports done urgently the next Monday.
