I'm dreaming of a COVID-free Christmas

To the lyrics of I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas:

I'm dreaming of a COVID-free Christmas

Just like the ones I used to know

Where the planes are floatin' and families gatherin'

To be together in the snow

I'm dreaming of a COVID-free Christmas

With every Christmas text I write

May your days be merry and bright

And may all your Christmases be mask-free

That's a little fun I had when I came up with the title for this post. But seriously, this is my first Christmas on Jeju because the risk of COVID infection was so high that I couldn't take the plane. My dad's not happy either, because we're spending Christmas separately.

Still, I'm counting on the day that this will all be a story we remember in the distant past.
