Alright, you gorgeous gang — I know healthcare isn’t exactly the stuff of holiday dreams. You’re thinking Mickey Mouse, poolside cocktails, and maybe a cheeky outlet spree… not medical bills and insurance jargon. But trust me, this is one of those “better safe than skint” situations. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ☀️ Healthcare in the USA? It’s not like the NHS. It’s more like walking into a posh restaurant and realising the tap water costs extra. So here’s my no-faff, straight-talking guide — the kind I’d give my best mate over a brew before they jet off. πŸ’Ό Travel Insurance – Don’t Be Daft, Get It Right, let’s not mess about.

Four massive parks, a gazillion rides, dining reservations that vanish faster than your patience, and something called Lightning Lanes that sound like they belong in Mario Kart. But don’t panic.
