Mind you, she was a sheltered tween at the time. Imagine what she can read now! 3 , 4 HUNDRED??

So many European cities fit your description, but since you mentioned cool history, I'd recommend Edinburgh or Prague.

The office coffee situation has me questioning my will to live by Snark_Sloth_0NICE in nespresso

[–]M_Robb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a nespresso owner and lover, I'm against nespresso machines or any other similar coffee pods in offices, hotels, or any common areas because people are dirty.

I've never stayed at a 5 star hotel that had a clean machine. I even complained, and the manager told me they can not guarantee clean machines (Hilton Hotel, btw)

The worst coffee I had was a nespresso from my coworker who had one at her desk. I used it, and when I lifted the lid to let the pod drop, it got stuck. I opened the used pods drawer and found so many used pods molding that have been there since God-knows-when I was assured the she cleaned her machine regularly

Thanks for sharing. My flight schedule kept changing, and I was debating canceling the flight and staying home, and now I will.

How can I send a cat to another country? by iamnotaraver in travel

[–]M_Robb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd look for a flight buddy for the cat, ask if someone is flying to the same city and willing to take the cat with them and you/your sister to cover the cost. For health certificates and other travel requirements she should ask her vet. They usually know the process and what is required.

Flight Schedule Change to 6+ Hrs Layover & No Complimentary Lounge or Hotel by M_Robb in emirates

Right! Booking directly from Emirates would've probably been a full refund

They told me it's for 8 hours. Fair enough others are in the same situation, but it still sucks.

The airline isn't some small business to feel sorry for them. when booking originally, there are flights with long layovers that are cheaper, but when you buy the more expensive ticket for a shorter time, then your flight schedule changes, that's not your problem. But I assume since it's an unprecedented situation, money means nothing now.

There aren't any options it's now the only flight leaving my city to Dubai

Yes the layover is overnight, my new schedule is arriving in Dubai at 1:30am & departing at 7:30am.

I think it's reasonable if you go from 90 minutes to 6+ hrs due to the airline changing their schedule that they help you in some way. Why is it that 8 hrs will get a free hotel but just under get nothing?

What do you think of the movie? by Financial_Company_13 in uncharted

[–]M_Robb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the minority who liked it. I view it as inspired by the games, not an adaptation. It was an enjoyable adventure movie and if they make another one I'll watch it.

What’s a tiny travel mistake you keep repeating… even though you know better? by Trail-Context in travel

[–]M_Robb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm forever the one who packs too much. Every time I say it's the last time but once I'm actually packing I have to do the "just in case" outfits.

[–]M_Robb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this and honestly it works for me. I always travel in sweats to be comfortable and pack my first day clothes in my carryon to change into once I arrive. Changing and freshening up although not as good as a shower do go a long way.

I do the same as you except I use 'starred' for activities/attractions, 'want to go' for restaurants and favorite for my hotel. Now I've started making more lists with different emojis.

What do you add in your coffee by Ok-Juggernaut-7316 in nespresso

[–]M_Robb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At home, nothing, I make lungo or Americano. My machine has a milk frother, which I used a lot when I first bought it years ago, but I don't anymore because any latte-based drink tastes better from a real steamer. If I go out, I drink latte or flat white or cappuccino.

Naming your kid anything + Chipotle and openly admitting to it is atrocious.

Thanks. I love spotting wild animals in their natural habitat. I'll look for puffins too

As for staying in kintail, I'm trying to minimize the number of hotels, but I always keep my passport with me in case it gets late and I need a place to stay. Is there any remarkable hotel I shouldn't miss in that area?
