Luckily my cousin has set a start and end time and it doesn't last too long. It will also be fun to meet with extended family again (my father's cousins and his aunt and uncle's, who are only a couple of years older than them).
There was also talk about organizing a gathering for just the cousins, but after January's drama I don't think anyone will want to organize it. If it does happen I've already decided I'm not going. I'm not blaming my uncle's children for his behaviour. Apparently his oldest daughter can't do the same and I do blame her for her behaviour towards me and I'm not going through that again. I won't vomit out a tirade like her on the WhatsApp group, but will contact the cousin organizing it privately and explain why I'm not going. Depending who the organizer it it will be a short or a more extensive explanation.

Good for you, but I still don't think you owe anyone any explanation. You don't go, period. The heck with them. That's my $.02. But I know, I do, family is...complicated.
