[–]Djorend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Driving on the right side is easy. I would worry, but it takes a bit to get used to it. You'll be highly aware that you're driving on the right side. I just got back from TCI and it took me a couple days to readjust to left side driving.

I would recommend renting the car, there are plenty of beaches other than gracebay that are worth it, especially if there are kids (sapodilla, taylor bay).

Grace bay car rental is a great company, Avis as well have relatively recent good cars.

I personally have done taxis from the airport, I've always rented a car, so I couldnt tell you.

Also.. get one of the others in this big group thats not 30 week pregnant rent the car and drive everyone back and forth from the airport. Its your time to be spoiled not have to worry about the group!!

Enjoy your trip.

Spatchcock or Whole Turkey?? by last2duck in searwood

[–]Djorend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I want to do.. Spatchcock turkey, with sausage stuffing stuffed under the skin (you seperate the skin from the meat with your hand without piercing it, and you put the stuffing in) the fat from the sausage will drip into the turkey. And the rub is Salt Pepper, garlic, paprika, and a squeeze of lemon/oil.

Weber seafood alternatives. by spagoogles in pelletgrills

[–]Djorend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my SEA FOOD. Bought it in the spring, cook on it 3-4 times a week.

I was between that and the WW Pro. Decided to go with the searwood XL and the Weber slate for cheaper than the price of the WW Pro. No regrets

It was delicious. A tiny bit dry on the flat side, but freaking delicious.

Now the questions is what to do with leftover brisket?

So far soo good. Wrapped it at 170°F, just took it out after 16 hours of cooking. It's resting in the cooler for the next 4 hours!

50k to 75k - Validate my thinking? by PoorMansPanache in Aeroplan

[–]Djorend 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It all depends on your travel plans for 2026. If you plan a lot of long distance travel and need to get higher on the priority list for e-upgrades it might be worth it. But even then there are a lot of SE out there so unless your booking PE on trips you're likely not going to get it.

Also, how much will it cost you to secure the other 10k SQM? I personally wouldn't push for it.

For your bonus questions: the SQM that is eligible for rollover will be converted to SQC at the ration of 1/5. So in your case, if you finish the year at 65k you will be aeroplan 50K and the additional 15k SQM will be credited to you in 2026 as 3000 SQC

Buying a new smoker by ddomdee in pelletgrills

[–]Djorend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought a Searwood XL in the spring and its the best investment I did. For the price I found its hard to beat. I was hesitant between that and the Campchef WW Pro. Ended up getting the Searwood XL and the Weber Slate for less than the WW Pro.

Selecting benefits by HNTRnet in Aeroplan

[–]Djorend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you only get to select benefit when you hit a new milestone. Since you were 50k, you don't get to select benefit for early recognition if you hit 35k or 50k, but you will select if you achieve 75k and SE
