I’m just trying to live/laugh/love my way into my 30s via a vacation with my husband & friends. We initially were planning 2 weeks in SEA but quickly realized only a week long trip would work for the group & I’m not interested in a 20+ hr flight for one week. Here are the details:

1. Flying from DC or Charlotte
2. Sufferer of the big SAD so I’d prefer sunny and warmer weather
3. Not interested in Mexico or Jamaica (we’ve been to both previously)
4. Open to resorts, cruising, etc. We’re pretty much up for anything.
5. I don’t care what’s involved as long as there’s SOME form of water to indulge in some days (ocean, lake, river, pool)

A mix of relaxing, exploring, & experiences is all I want. I’m thankful for any & all suggestions.

ETA: Budget is under $7k (including travel/stay/shopping/tickets/etc)

I’ve only been skating off and on as an adult for the last two-ish years (and when I say off and on I mean for a couple week/months straight then life gets busy so I don’t skate for awhile then repeat this pattern every couple months). Always outside, mostly rougher terrain. I’m looking to cruise long distance on a trail or somewhere similar. I rarely have super smooth cement/pavement/etc to work with.

I’ve read MANYYYY posts on this sub about this exact setup but it’s 50/50 of whether people say it’s fine & works like a charm or if it’s a biter situation and they don’t fit. Does anyone have this current setup: stock boot/bearings with atom pulse wheels? If yes, does it work straight outta the box or did you have to mod it somehow? Did you saw off the screws? Add washers? What worked for you? TIA!!!!

For the love of all things good & tasty, someone PLEASE point me in the direction of where to find the best meatball sub in Lyh. I don’t know what has taken over me but I think I’ll actually die if I don’t eat one soon
