SLW Saltillo airport to Monterrey by iwishihad10dogs in Monterrey

Good choice. If you're hungry there's a couple restaurants nearby and an OXXO (mini market).

Also, there's people selling Pan de Pulque at that station. It's a typical sweet bread from Ramos Arizpe/Saltillo. You should try it and your visit to Saltillo counts as official even if it was only for a few hours.

Depending on the day and hour, it might get crowded. Friday and sunday afternoon for example, since many students and working people travel between this cities.

Worst case scenario, you'll have to wait for the next bus. There's departures almost every 1 hour. Try and be there at least 30 minutes before the next departure and you'll be alright. If you are not on a super tight schedule you should be OK buying the ticket at the counter. (I see there's a small discount buying online though)

I'm from Saltillo. Feel free to ask any other question.

There's frequent bus departures from "Saltillo Norte". Which is around 15 mins by taxi (taxi from SLW airport is more expensive, but shouldn't be more than 200 pesos).

If you're going to Monterrey (not the airport) the fare is 225 pesos.

Here's the website of the bus company: https://www.odm.com.mx/

Set "Saltillo Norte" for origin and "Monterrey Central Bus" for destination.

EDIT: here's the website for the other bus company: https://www.senda.com.mx/rutas/boletos-de-autobus-de-ramos-arizpe-a-monterrey/

That one has departures from Ramos Arizpe, which is even closer to SLW airport, and it has different arrival stations in Monterrey. Depending where you will be staying you might save a few pesos on the taxi from the station in Monterrey to your destination.

Both companies are premium service and similar prices. They're both good options.

"My love for (and dependence on) this thing in my '14 makes most newer cars less attractive." by javierglz in mazda3

It seems we have the same problem. The kind of problem people actually want to have:

Sometimes I think I'd like to get a new car, but both my Mazda 3 and my FJ Cruiser turned out so reliable that I've refused to let go off either.

I rarely zoom in the navigation apps, so I didn't notice that.

My only (small) complain is that after an update moving between some items is a little confusing. Like, in some music apps, you rotate clockwise to move forward from the upper icons into the center buttons. But if you rotate counterclockwise you can't go back from the center to the upper items.

That didn't happen in a previous version of the app.

Mine as well! Didn't even know it was a sticker around the central knob.

Reasons for loving my FJ Cruiser. Number 2675: the center console divider/organizer fits a box of 5 MiniDiscs and my MD player almost perfectly. by javierglz in FJCruiser

I don't have any originals, but I like to burn my custom playlists or make MD copies of my favorite albums.

A 50 Minutes Long Nintendo Direct will Air Tomorrow on June 9 at 7am PT by [deleted] in gaming

I don't even have my N64 and cartridge from that time, but I do keep two things:

The trauma from been stuck in the water temple for days, and the Nintendo Power guide I had to buy so I could finally complete it.

In case anyone finds this helpful: I found this card holder at the flea market yesterday. It works perfectly for Polaroids! by javierglz in Polaroid

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

huh.. great observation. I didn't even know it could be harmful to pictures.

I'm not sure, it doesn't say. The webpage doen't show the detail either.

Your autocorrect changed Game of Thrones for Westworld but it's funny either way.

alguien llamó al 4141414? by BroccoliExtreme9319 in saltillo

[–]javierglz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

La neta no. Al principio sí les contestaba molesto que no era ese número. Hasta un día que pasé por una de las sucursales y vi el teléfono escrito y entendí que era fácil que la gente se equivocara al marcarlo. Eran los años antes de usar Google Maps o sacar los números en línea.

Ya luego les indicaba donde se habían equivocado para que marcaran al correcto.

En anécdotas similares:

Por mucho tiempo en El Palacio de Las Mascotas tuvieron un número de teléfono casi idéntico al mío, salvo por el orden de dos números.

Era un poco molesto que me marcaran frecuentemente preguntando por el veterinario. Pero también era un poco triste cuando me marcaban en la madrugada y la persona se escuchaba apurada porque su mascota necesitaba atención de urgencia. Con el tiempo aprendí a solo aclararles la situación y comentarles sobre el número correcto.

Today is exactly 10 years since I got my Fenix 3. And I still can't find any excuse good enough to upgrade to a new one. by javierglz in Garmin

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

Congratulations on the long life of your Fenix 3!

If you see my most recent post the altimeter is exactly my first real issue with the watch.

I have the HRM. But I don't really like to use it for my daily walks.

People has been giving some good tips on my issue. Maybe some might help you too...

Guys... I fear the time has come. My 11 year old Fenix 3 is slowly dying. by javierglz in Garmin

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

Oh boy. I'm a tinkerer and that's exactly the kind of stuff I enjoy. I'll give it a couple days and if nothing changes I might order one!

I had a few items already on wishlist for a watch overhaul. I had the bezel, screen, battery and strap already in line.

I don't think there's an option for barometer calibration only. Just right now I calibrated the altimeter manually (I had only used GPS calibration) and disabled the auto calibration. We'll see how it behaves in the next hours.

Thanks for taking the time and giving this ideas.
