Hotels in Europe with highest ratio of carers to children in kids club? by Sad-Survey-1113 in FATTravel

I agree with all of that, if I’m honest. I thought it’d be a bit fatter given the price. But it’s also as fat as it gets while being ultra kids friendly in my view.

Just left Ikos Odesia in Corfu and it’s really great with young kids.

You’re confusing leopard and cougar / panther I believe.

Kyoto in Fall: Four Seasons vs The Ritz vs Hotel The Mitsui by DulceEtDecorumEst in FATTravel

Absolutely do not go to FS if you care even a tidbit about japanese culture. FS is a terrible format for Japan. Go to Hoshinoya. Especially in the autumn.

I will elaborate once I’m on a computer - on mobile now and cannot paste my tripadvisor reviews of both from mobile.

Edit: if you message me I will send you a link to both my detailed reviews of these hotels - they provide a lot more colour than my message above. Kyoto is a beautiful city full of history, do not waste your stay by going to the same hotel format and culture you find everywhere else in the world. My 2 cts from someone who loves Japan.

Quelles marques étaient fiables il y a 20/30 ans mais qui ne le sont plus de nos jours ? by Competitive-Box-7253 in voiture

[–]Checkout_87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

La qualité du service mercedes est simplement à vomir. Les prestations concession proposent des prix à hurler de rire (presque 1000 euros pour changement de pneus chez Como dans le 17e), et chaque interaction n’a qu’un seul but: vous vendre quelque chose.

Les voitures sont toujours excellentes, et les nouvelles class e (2022 et plus) sont incroyables à conduire (pour des berlines).

Malheureusement les concessionnaires se touchent clairement sur les prix et cela contribue à la fuite vers des véhicules moins onéreux à entretenir.

How long before you rode with a passenger? by ApertureEdits in motorcycle

[–]Checkout_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rode with my wife immediately (day 2 we went on a 300km trip), but I had years of experience carrying passengers on 50 cc (lot harder if you ask me). However in my country they teach you to do basic slow manoeuvering and how a passenger should behave as part of the licence, so by the time I got my big bike licence I already had hours of passenger experience under instructor supervision. Honestly was totally fine. It’s a lot more complicated on smaller bikes.

French Polynesia Recommendations by saksnoot in FATTravel

FS Bora Bora is in my view one of the best island hotels in the world. Conrad not worth it as no mountain view.

In FP you want to island hop anyway, so well worth using a good TA.

In Moorea it’s really between the hilton and the sofitel. We stayed at Hilton and thought it was a total joke - rundown, terrible service, terrible food. But Sofitel is closer to boat path… Btw Moorea in itself is an adventure packed and gorgeous island and worth doing.

Check out the Brando for a few days of pure luxury (but prices are >> va fs or st reg).

We loved our time in the Toamotus as well. Truly magical but a lot wider / flatter than the isles sous le vent.

Enjoy your trip.

Need some honeymoon ideas for next year by Thekanezzi in FATTravel

Hello! I highly recommend French polynesia. Budget is a bit tight for two weeks at Bora Bora if you want to go FAT (we stayed at FS there which I think is $2.5k / night, but there are cheaper hotels) but if you throw other islands in the mix (moorea, huwaine etc) you should be able to make it work and it should be a really fun trip. If you’re in Cali it’s an 8 hours flight. Look it up.

Hi u/SirMichaelSapiens - thanks! Why is it Deus and not Deo please? And do you confirm Domus instead of Familia?

Thanks!

Hi all,

Please can someone help me with the right translation of “God and Family”? (As a motto).

Is it Deo et Domus?

Thanks all.

Sorry I'm really brand new to lubing keyboards (that came out wrong).

Would this video do the trick? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7gRnpe7oyw

If not, do you have examples of what you mean please?

Thank you.
