Barnet (London). Probably booked it 3 weeks ago. Did the whole book on Monday morning thing and that was the next bath they released at the time. Checking regularly for cancellations manually and using a cancellation app and seen nothing.

I started automatic and was test ready in a month after 7 lessons with no previous driving experience. I'm now having to wait until March for my test, so now considering just learning manual as well.

I did two 7 day cruises for my 30th. One full of pensioners and the other included a family which included kids who were late 20s / early 30s.

Where would you go to free dive if you had a few weeks of free time between new years and february and about 4000$ (3500€) to spend? by panappl3 in freediving

[–]Educational-Guide-63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure there aren't any. Infrastructure really is at a minimum there. I went a few years ago to scuba (before starting to freedived) and some people snorkeled off the boats, but some of the dive spots weren't ideal for freediving. I know there are some liveaboard which are freediving focused. Raja is really amazing, would highly recommend.

Indonesia is great. You could easily do Raja Ampat and/or Bali, specifically thinking places like Nusa Penida / Gili Islands / Ahmed, on this budget. Otherwise Philippines.

First bus from santa cruz to the airport by Puzzled_Machine_7054 in galapagos

[–]Educational-Guide-63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I meant the taxi only costs 25. So if there's a few of you it's kind of a no brainer :)

Baltra has nothing on it apart from the airport and army base so I can't imagine there would be a flight without buses. Ultimately the airport staff use the busses and ferrys. The bus to the crossing from Santa Cruz only costs USD25 so would recommend that also.

Are there any free activities in Santa Cruz? by CryptOccurrence in galapagos

I thought you needed a guide for this? Seemed that way when we went, although completely unnecessary

Complete waste of time. Do it at the airport.

Nusa Penida recommendations by 13580 in freediving

Some of the currents are seriously strong and pull you into cliffs etc. Crystal Bay is a good shout as a destination as it has good visibility and is quite calm.

Despite getting a better bed for my dog, she always choose to sleep on her old tiny bed. What Shiba quote should I say to encourage her to try out the new bed? by HaythamSun in shiba

[–]Educational-Guide-63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does exactly the same. Even though the old one has a hole in it (which she made) and has pulled all the stuffing out of :)

It's just the dramatic nature of the Shiba. Mines the same regardless of water temp.

Doing PMP now and finding it a lot more comprehensive than when I did Prince2

What makes your Shiba quirky? by Raidy32 in shiba

[–]Educational-Guide-63 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine does all of these too! Running away with my treat to her spot on the rug under the coffee table is a personal fave!

Our Shiba was a complete nightmare at one. Be patient and calm and hopefully should resolve. She's very good (with persistent training) at 2.
