Florida used to be a huge destination for Icelander's looking for sun, a lot of that has changed to EU destinations over the past decade.

My friends and I are the same way now and have reduced all non-mandatory travel to the US. With the horrible exchange rate for Canadians and the added scrutiny and extra questioning at the borders now, there aren't many reasons to go to America. Not to mention the increased racial tensions down south for those of a visible no minority (about half of my group of friends, including myself).
