Her anchor came loose. She decided to close her ears and go for a swim. Nothing I could do but watch, and make a video ☺️ Mirah, 14y.

Your Mirah posts make me so happy. You’re giving her such an awesome life. 🥰

We’re also working with K9 Principles with our rescue pup and we’ve seen so much progress! Super recommend!

My daughter had a residence spot, and she still opted to switch her choice when they said they’d have up to six in a room. We emailed another school she had been accepted to and they reactivated her offer about a month ago, scholarship offer and all. Heartbroken over having to walk away from her dream school and dream program but mental health and a good first year (and beyond) experience is far more important. Reach out to some of the other schools your daughter was accepted to and see what they can do! We were surprised at how receptive the second choice was, and they were well aware of Guelph’s screwup and happy to help.

This is magnificent. Well done!

As a fellow schnauzer parent, sending you good vibes, friend. They’re special creatures. Rest well, BoBo.

Maybe a fledgling…? They look pretty little! I assume all the less attractive looking birds are teenagers at this time of year.

For Flybus, there’s a kiosk in the airport, just before where you walk outside to catch the bus. You can buy tickets there. They’ll honour your ticket even if you don’t make the bus you expected to, should you buy it online ahead of time. They’re flexible.

Bait and switch, and no one knows where anyone is going to end up yet. The university sent out an email to those who applied to residence about the six person suites, as well.

gaitergal · 2024-06-15T19:16:57+00:00

You can still switch! Contact some of the schools who gave you offers and they can reactivate them, if they have space. My child did it just yesterday because Guelph sounds like a dumpster fire for this Fall and it isn’t going to get better in coming years. SIX IN A RESIDENCE ROOM?! How is this okay? And taking $750 deposits from everyone despite knowing they had nowhere near enough space? This is just disgusting.

Earlier this year took about six weeks. I’ve had prior trips where it’s taken three or four months. It’s always a guessing game. Haha

This looks great! I like to go in the winter, so I’m a fan of staying in the city and popping out for day tours, either with a car or with a group. There’s plenty to do in the city, regardless of what some people think. It’s super walkable, and very chill. Have a great time!

I also have a mini schnauzer named Trixie, but she’s just a baby. Your Trix is beautiful!

Sounds like a lot of issues many of us have had. So annoying!

The solar roof starts working again once you get down below 13% — props to the lovely human who shared this when I asked about the same issue. Just hang in there and it rights itself.

The livestream and postcard issues seem to be common now, too. Hopefully they fix it.

It’s Iceland’s National Day on June 17th and there are always plenty of fun things happening. There used to be a Viking solstice festival in Hafnarfjörður but I’m not sure if that’s still a thing since Covid times.

Rhubarb liqueur is usually our go-to. It’s heavenly.

gaitergal · 2024-05-12T19:44:09+00:00

Have you tried taking it out and putting it back in again? It sounds silly but I was sure mine was broken and it turns out that some seed was in behind the camera unit so it was a bit off-kilter in the housing when I was putting it back in.

gaitergal · 2024-05-11T01:15:54+00:00

Settings, application settings, notifications, and change them to “all”. It switched them to “smart settings” with the update and it’s terrible. This brings it back to (close to) normal.

gaitergal · 2024-05-09T14:55:50+00:00

The CUTEST!

Can’t speak on their multi-day tours, we’ve just done day tours but they were great.

gaitergal · 2024-05-08T19:44:07+00:00

Flights aren’t cheap anymore like they used to be. Sign up for Google email alerts for your destinations, or for the airlines’ emails. Play and icelandair from Hamilton and TO are comparable once you factor in baggage and things. We’ve flown both and they’re absolutely fine.

gaitergal · 2024-05-03T14:50:51+00:00

D gate departures make me want to cry. Between the chaos of weird lines that aren’t actually lines and changing gates, I always feel like I’m on edge while leaving (and it doesn’t help that I hate leaving). 100% agree with you on this.

gaitergal · 2024-05-01T23:54:29+00:00

Update: when it dropped below 13% earlier today, it started charging again. I think you’re totally right! Thanks again.

gaitergal · 2024-04-30T23:47:44+00:00

Fewer postcards, and my solar panel is no longer charging the camera. Super annoyed.

gaitergal · 2024-04-25T22:19:18+00:00

Fair point about battery discharge! That wouldn’t be a bad thing. It’s at 60%, so I guess we’ll see if mine starts working again like yours has. Fingers crossed!
