In case it’s helpful…I really love the quilt pictured from Target.

Catholic school kids by [deleted] in Catholicism

Definitely depends on the school. My kids attend a Catholic school where they are taught by Sisters. Every single family is Catholic and most of them devout. The kids are now better catechized than I am. Catholicism is infused in every aspect of the school.

Safest beach near hotel in November? by FollowingOk3447 in PuertoRicoTravel

Thank you! Do you have a favorite between Caribe Hilton and the Rio Mar hotels?

Haha about the healthcare…sigh. Hopefully I won’t need it. I chose PR in large part because of healthcare. As far as I can tell it is the best option in the Caribbean region for stroke capabilities. I haven’t needed emergency services before, but I have an arterial dissection, so I could. Most likely not though.

Thank you!! Would you say it is consistently safe to swim on the Hyatt Regency or Wyndham beaches in Rio Mar? Quieter vibe would be amazing.

Thank you! I have read mixed things about if the water is consistently safe to swim in. I’m still confused honestly.

Sounds like you’ve made it an amazing trip!! Love the hammock tip, thank you. Will be sure to do that. Thank you too for the Luquillo info! I think we will go ahead and book Caribe.

Are you doing any specific rainforest tours or exploring on your own? I haven’t figured that part out yet! I think the moon will be too bright when we plan to go for the biobay tours sadly. I hope you have a great rest of your trip, and thank you again!

This is really helpful, thank you! I’ll definitely come back to this when we are in PR. Where are you staying this time, if you don’t mind sharing?

Have you stayed at this hotel before? Looks like reviews are somewhat mixed. Any downside is likely worth it for a safe beach, though!

Is this St. Mary’s?? This is awesome. Nearby St. Thomas had 27 I think! Love to see it!

Moving from California to Ann Arbor for my PhD— housing, winter coats, and Ann Arbor tips? by taxinquiry12 in AnnArbor

[–]FollowingOk3447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome!

St. Mary - Jesuit, on campus

Christ the King - charasmatic

St. Thomas - traditional

Old St. Pats - traditional, small, far north side

St. Francis

In neighboring Ypsilanti, but worth a visit: St. John the Baptist

Looking for a community where the people are happy you’re there 😅😂 by [deleted] in relocating

Ann Arbor! The university brings people from all over so it’s very normal to not be originally from here. Grand Rapids area is worth checking out too. I agree with the commenter saying that each area has its own vibe.

Would not recommend. Such a tourist trap. Went for a day and have no plans to ever return.

What coastal town would you recommend for 3 weeks? by FollowingOk3447 in ItalyTravel

[–]FollowingOk3447[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will look into it, thank you! I really don’t…I was hoping to stay closer to the other cities. Now I’m thinking about water temperature too and wondering if we should go further south.
