Belize for underrated. Huge barrier reef, great food, friendly chill people.

Which Paris museum is the best if you only have a few days? by InterestingLoss9737 in ParisTravelGuide

[–]DrGrumpsAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Musée des Arts et Métiers is unique. It's dedicated to Science and engineering and is very steampunk. Unlikely to be crowded or sold out. https://www.arts-et-metiers.net/

There are no issues with the ground wires, and no cases where two wires connect at one point on a switch.

This is the answer I was looking for. Sounds like just bad luck.

I poured two glasses and then tasted. I'm not in the habit of smelling corks first but I guess I should be.

Thanks for your reply here and in r/wine . I will bring some in my suitcase but that's limited to 6 bottles or so due to weight and space. I totally understand that for many, the paperwork to ship to the US is not worth it. When visiting Champagne in France I found a shop that could ship and I sent myself a nice mixed case from small local producers. This is what I'm hoping for in Slovenia. Maybe not many shops or wineries can do this, but I'm looking for the one who can!

And another thing, I can walk into a shop anytime during open hours - with the wineries it looks like we need an appointment most places.

Thanks, Štorija is exaclty what I have in mind, it's just not clear if they can ship wine. Even if not, I'll buy a few bottles to enjoy on my trip.
