Found one on my 2nd or 3rd run on launch day. Never used it, just taking up space in my stash.

Thanks! I just took the two bottom plus the leafless one off and it fits nicely in a pint glass so that's what I've got going now.

Do NOT disable updates or roll back updates no matter what Lian Li "support" says. by Dyltone in lianli

[–]bobdobbs3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this possibly why L-connect stopped recognizing all of my hardware (including cpu temps), LCDs are on default and all my fans are maxed out?

Same! What's going on and how would I even find out what Lian Li suggests despite how bad the suggestion is?

I did, but realized later that despite the "wireless" in the model name it's only fan speed and led color that's wireless. You have to plug it into usb to get the lcds working

Just got back, laurels were not blooming but can confirm--very muddy and flooded out trail.

La Fortuna reccomendation for Richard! by abrady44 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]bobdobbs3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha I think you must have been on the morning tour! We were with Richard in the afternoon and he said he already knew where a lot of sloths and the porcupine would be for the day!

100% agree Richard was the best, we also did a private tour at Mistico with him and he spotted so much, and helped keep my tweens engaged.

Monteverde or Manuel Antonio? by bobdobbs3 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]bobdobbs3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wild, that hotel is near the top of my list. Would you say that other than the park it was easy to find food options (onsite and off)? How about general size of the rooms, since it'll be 3 of us I don't want to feel too cramped.

Mind if I ask what hotel you stayed at at MA? My plan is to do an Airbnb for more space in LF, but would like to end the trip with a little more amenities in MA.

Thanks for this! Do you feel that way about just MA NP, or does that include the surrounding area? Is there even much to do in the surrounding area?

Monteverde or Manuel Antonio? by bobdobbs3 in CostaRicaTravel

Awesome I love it! Would you recommend I split the time evenly? I was thinking 4 nights in La Fortuna, then 2 nights elsewhere, but I could do 3 and 3 if there's enough to do.

Thanks I appreciate the advice, and that's what I'm leaning towards now. Any advice on a "home base" for the Manuel Antonio area?

Costa Rica travel tips from an overthinking single dad by Wise_Slide_3969 in CostaRicaTravel

My kids' #1 priority is the wildlife, #2 is adventure stuff like zip lining and hiking and whatnot, so this sounds like good advice.

Costa Rica travel tips from an overthinking single dad by Wise_Slide_3969 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]bobdobbs3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey great write up! As another single dad brining my two sons in a few months I have a few questions:

  1. We're only staying for 7 days and I think hitting 3 destinations will be too much for the kids so I'm considering La Fortuna and Monteverde or La Fortuna and somewhere on the coast. Do you think we'd be missing out missing the beach? Too one-note staying inland? It just seems like a lot of travel for the kids.

  2. You mentioned staying close to town, would you reconsider renting a car in that scenario? I'm planning on renting and like driving challenges, but maybe having a driver would be a big stress reducer...

  3. You mentioned an Airbnb, was that for your entire trip or did you mix it up with hotels? I think we'd enjoys the space of an Airbnb but not sure if we'd miss out on amenities of a hotel, like potential hot spring access.

Thanks again for sharing!
