What's the first thing you're doing when the pandemic ends?

I want to find the most crowded places possible. Parties, restaurants, concerts etc. Anywhere there's lots of people.
Also, hugging my friends. I miss that big time.

How about you guys?
 
I’m ready to take a visit to the children’s theater/performing arts center again. My aunt and I started going almost yearly, and now we haven’t been to see a live show in at least a year. There’s also a new center that was supposed to be opening up near me, but they haven’t been able to due to the pandemic. It really sucks, because they had an amazing lineup of shows listed for our area.

I also just want to be able to go out more frequently, whether it be out to restaurants, stores, bookstores, the movie theater, a walk in the park, etc, without having to worry about a mask.
 
Library. I use it for far more reasons than most people, and my being unable to go is doing worse to me than other places I've been barred from.

Though a long camping vacation also sounds good, been talking with someone else about hiking and camping in another country).

Finding a new gym. Though I seem to be doing better than I thought overall, I feel like the one I went to screwed me over. Actually, I'm not sure if I will join another one or not. Maybe I'll take the money I saved from not paying the countless ways they squeezed money out of me and buy my own equipment (as I already have in minor ways, some that I was lucky enough to get at a garage sale that works well).

I have used the library a lot since tje pandemic - all ebooks and audiobooks
The last concert I went to was Greta van Fleet in May of 2019. I would be going back to concerts.
I will go to all the restaurants I used to go to.
Shopping will be a breeze when you can actually go into a store and handle the things you are interested in buying rather than just looking at pictures on a website gallery.
I might do a bit more travelling once more places are open.
 
I was supposed to got to Romania - to Bucharest and then up to Dracula's castle last May half term holiday ... obviously that didn't happen. Flights/ hotels etc allowed rebooking for up to a year later so now I'm supposed to go this May half term - though I'm not holding my breath for being able to go. So - it might not be the very first thing I do - but at some point I would like to make it to Dracula's castle.
 
Visit my elderly father, like @DeepBlueJoy! And like @thrasherpix, go inside a library. That was the shut-down moment that really got my attention, and I rushed up that day and got a huge stack of stuff (which still didn't last). Ours are still open only for outside pick-up.

And like @IndianaSolo221, go to plays. I have dreams of being at plays, but can't find my seat, the actors won't start, etc. Both my regular theaters shut down just before the plays I had particularly wanted to see all season!
 
I'm excited to see my friend, go to the cinema and gyms again 🙂
 
I'm looking forward to going to the hairdressers. Then cinema and lunch with friends. And shopping.

I chopped my own...again. Yes...hairdressers.

I want to go to the damned art galleries...and use the trains. I've spent £170 on Tate membership and I've been twice in 18 months...ditto £70 on a rail card and not used it since November.
 
Go to the cinema and for food. I want to be able to do things on a whim again like just texting a friend ‘fancy going for a wander around the shops?’ And not having to plan everything in advance 😂

I’m not a huge drinker or party girl but because it’s been so long I’m really looking forward to a big blow out night out 😂

Not a party girl myself, but I find the thought of witnesses the first St. Patrick's Day in Dublin after all restrictions are lifted should be a sight worth seeing, surely the biggest street party of the century (at least top 3).
Mid-March last year, my husband and one of our sons had a sday trip to Sweden scheduled for Friday after school, to shop for groceries we don't get here and have dinner together. The day before, the restrictions came. Since then, we haven't crossed that border. When life is finally normal again, I think we will add the rest of the family and some accommodation to that plan and finally get our favourite Swedish groceries.
 
Pandemic? What pandemic? I've been sat at my computer writing stories, I have loads of inspiration for new stories many fail about page twenty though, still they might be fodder for future inspirations. That is the benefit of writing stories of similar subjects = ghosts, witches and vampires.
I go out to buy food, to the doctors and the chemists.
