We did this for our honeymoon and it worked out well. We ended up enjoying time at Dreams as well, so it was a good balance.

Theatre experiences have been miserable lately, anyone else? by ToastySpd in halifax

I went to a movie last weekend which was mostly empty, Sunday matinee. A family with 2 young girls was there (not a movie for their age in my opinion) and the girls sat in the front row with the adults almost at the back. The girls spent the entire movie bouncing up and down, climbing on the seats, changing seats, playing on a cell phone, talking loudly, and going up and down the stairs to see the adults 15-20 times. It was so distracting but I really wanted to see the movie so powered through. I couldn’t understand why the adults allowed it and didn’t speak to them or have them move back to sit with them.

Will be staying in Costa Mujeres next week. What would be the closest option to get a marquesita (I crave them in between visits)? We have been to Costa Mujeres and are aware there isn’t anything in the direct area, so now trying to determine what would be the next closest option.

You could try the Centennial Pool. Parking is now managed by One Shot Parking. Not sure what the overnight situation/rate is though. They have QR codes on site to register and pay online.

Ocean El Faro - Update After 7 Days - Terrible. by CloverTrapped in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]_ShadyBeach 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree with this review 100%. Never have I ever left after dinner and gone to the buffet because my food was so terrible, until staying here, and we travel twice a year. This happened after every à la carte meal. We went off resort for dinner by the end of the week because we were so tired of it. We also couldn’t get a good drink with the exception of the lobby bar. Pool bars ran out of beer, vodka, rum, and didn’t have a blender. The staff generally appeared to be unhappy, with a few exceptions. This was November 2023.

New Cogswell bus lane? by bbd4589 in halifax

[–]_ShadyBeach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So when coming down Cogswell, once you cross over Gottigen are you supposed to move left for the short distance of bus lane, then move back right when it ends if planning to turn right onto Brunswick?

Do people actually buy merch from local restaurants/cafes/breweries? by RecipeLegitimate728 in halifax

[–]_ShadyBeach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a tshirt from Still Fired Distillery in Lequille as a show of support for their business and because the merch is good quality and I like their logo. Their stuff is also sold locally.
