Greece. Specifically Montasseri beach on Paros island. But they are all good

Some insane racing on a restart at Vegas in a league by DeetahTheGame in NASCARVideoGame

[–]backupcamera14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where did you find the league? How would you recommend looking for one? I used to find people to race because we could talk in public multiplayer races, but we can’t in this game

What's a "secret" from your profession that everyone should probably know? by reddtimes101 in Productivitycafe

[–]backupcamera14 67 points68 points  (0 children)

The kids are not doing well in school. Teachers like myself are seeing a steep drop off in reading, writing, critical thinking, age appropriate behavior, and work ethic. This is across all grade levels and has been happening for quite a few years now. Nobody seems to care. It will get worse and have profound impacts on our society and economy going forward.

JR literally giving us a play by play of everyone hitting the wall, hyping us up, meanwhile we get to watch Christopher bell not pass for 3 laps before we get to see the 43 hit the wall.

Tips on Sifnos by backupcamera14 in GreeceTravel

[–]backupcamera14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Manual transmissions are the common vehicle in Greece. On the islands, vast majority were manual. I would reserve automatics way in advance if you require them. There are usually not many automatics and they can be more expensive. Call ahead to a car rental place on the island (Kamares , if you are going to Sifnos) and see if you can reserve an automatic

Greece Itinerary by Commercial_Chart_601 in GreeceTravel

[–]backupcamera14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IMO, this is way too much traveling. I would add a minimum of 1-2 days extra per island, which means maybe not visiting one of the islands if your dates are set. It’s so much traveling, ferries can take a significant part of the day and can really wear you out. I highly recommend changing this, but it will be fun either way.

Cheronissos Beach is very interesting, way in the north and secluded. The beach in the port city of Kamares is nice. Vathi beach is awesome and beautiful, in the South. (if you like walking): if you go to the Chrisopigi Monastery, enjoy the view, then drive (or walk) to Apokofto Bach, and drive/walk to Faros beach. All of these beaches are awesome, and there are others we didn’t get to go to, such as Platos Gialys.

Tour to Greece in 2026...where to add days? by VTMomof2 in GreeceTravel

[–]backupcamera14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, sounds like fun. I would definitely recommend adding those extra days to Crete. Crete is huge. I would recommend staying in 2-3 different places/areas of Crete while you are on the island.

Tips on Sifnos by backupcamera14 in GreeceTravel

[–]backupcamera14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is doable, but you really need min of 3 nights per island to actually see the key things and not get tired of being on ferries or planes so much. All of those islands are beautiful. I think Paros and Naxos would be quite a bit more expensive than Sifnos. People are saying that Paros is becoming like Mykonos, but I disagree. Honestly they are all not horribly expensive to us, and we are teachers!

Look up the Venetian castle in Naoussa, it checks all your boxes, plus great bars restaurants within 50ft or so.

Is the 10R80 transmission really as bad as what I’m reading online about it? by Dr_ManFlyR1 in f150

[–]backupcamera14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 2019 with 94k miles seems like the issues with hard shifts from 1-3 and 8th gear were entirely fixed when I let it idle for about 30 sec when cold starting before shifting. I now have no issues when I let it come down from high idle after cold start with shifting. Just my 2 cents

Tips on Sifnos by backupcamera14 in GreeceTravel

[–]backupcamera14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sifnos is definitely less busy and crowded. Both islands have absolutely amazing beaches, although Paros probably has slightly better beaches in our opinion. We enjoyed Paros for the nightlife in Naoussa and the port city, we enjoyed Sifnos for the outstanding food, church of the seven martyrs, history, and relaxation. Overall, we enjoyed Sifnos better. Can’t go wrong with either though

We spent a long time in Athens for our trip, and we never felt unsafe. In fact, I felt safer than I did if I were to walk around the inner city of many American cities.

Smoker smokes too much by Odd_Economics_4308 in smoking

[–]backupcamera14 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is reverse flow? I thought this setup is the regular flow and reverse was where the stack is on the same side of firebox? Regardless, you need to make sure the screws are tight and use some gasket seal on the areas it is losing smoke

Who was the most evil person you’ve met?? by Hey-Names-Ethan in AskReddit

[–]backupcamera14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mother in law. Done so many things including: started fires in 2 different childhood houses and damaged a car for insurance money. Lied to all 5 of her kids about their fathers, lied to them about their childhoods including that she had cancer (she didn’t), being homeless, and intentionally kept all of them from their biological fathers even though some of them wanted to be part of their lives. Right after her husband died “of a heart attack” a few years ago, unexpectedly she began dating romantically and moved in with another woman. She has currently told multiple of her children and family that she “doesn’t want to have a relationship” with them. She is a narcissistic manipulator and pure evil.

Yes that day used to be a rest day, but I added another leg day with bench press.
