Honestly, it's easier with in-laws, where my wife is more comfortable with me saying "I'm just not feeling this," plus the fact that they are usually smaller, more limited trips. This one is a big event that's pretty hard to plausibly get out of without being a complete ass.

I realize this is very much a "first world problem" kind of gripe, but I'm still gonna gripe somewhere.

I don't relish being stuck on an island for a week with them.
That's setting aside my fears about flying, travel outside the U.S., and my general "not feeling it" right now.
So, basically, it's the kind of thing I'm gonna have to grit my teeth through, and we've got a full year to build up to it.

On the other hand, I have no interest in Caribbean tourist traps. I haven't seen this branch of my family in over a decade because we're really not very close. I am sure at least some of them have politics that will lead to me calling them Nazis.

At the moment, it's a question of scheduling. And financing. Scheduling and financing. And work. Scheduling, financing, and work.
