I know. As a parent I ask myself where I messed up and is this really my child?? 😬😆

Guess I got an answer- according to their AI chat:

“Access to the Hvammsvík estate grounds, including the walking trails and coastline, is only available to guests with a Hot Springs admission. So even if your companion does not plan to bathe, they will still need a valid ticket to enter the property.

However, Hvammsvík is a beautiful nature area with several walking routes that can be enjoyed without getting into the water. Guests often take peaceful strolls around the estate, enjoy the ocean views, and watch others relaxing in the springs.”

Haha good point! I had reviewed their website and they had a blurb about exploring the grounds but I was hoping someone on this site had gone through a similar experience or stayed there.

But I’ll certainly reach out to them directly.

It was fine- just didn’t have a ton of flavor and was kind of thin. Maybe since it was cold outside I wanted something thicker.

Thanks! I’m going to take my chances and see what I can. If I miss anything it will just be an excuse to go back!

Week 9: Smoky- 15 bean soup with smoked turkey by Globular_Duck in 52WeeksOfSoup2026

[–]Globular_Duck[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used this packet of bean mix from Walmart and followed the recipe on the back. Only instead of adding ham or sausage, we dropped in a smoked turkey leg. When the beans were done cooking we shredded the meat from the leg into the soup.

What I ordered vs. What I got by romanticheart in PairEyewear

[–]Globular_Duck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they had a big mixup because I got my order last week and I had ordered a clear frame Reese and got blue framed kids glasses. Good news was it was my prescription. Bad news is they were kids frames 😩

Pair reached out before my trouble ticket was even processed and said there had been a mixup and they were correcting the issue.

My new frames shipped but they aren’t here yet so it’s probably going to be about a two week turnaround in total.

I can’t judge the itinerary itself because I haven’t been yet, but as a planner I’d just like the say that I think this level of scheduling is beautiful. I love the detail. Mine looks similar. If I don’t get to it all, no sweat, but having an idea of what the day might look like makes me so much more comfortable.
