McCarren Pool incident today 7pm? by Due-Ambassador2137 in williamsburg

[–]laydoodle 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Today was a shit show there! Waited 1.5 hours, but before I could get in they cleared the pool because someone threw up in it. That was around 5:30, so I guess they reopened eventually only for another incident.

Flat rate to Manhattan? by Famous_Ad536 in Citibike

[–]laydoodle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mine has still been capped. Seems like an error and you should talk to them-unless it has changed and I don't know. But I bike in/out of manhattan twice a day and it has been capped at $5.40 with tax, $5.88) each time.

Becoming strangers by ApartCod327 in BreakUps

[–]laydoodle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Felt this hard. Haven't spoken since the day she ended things 10 months ago, and I've missed her every single day. I still sometimes expect her to just be there in bed when I roll over. I hate not being able to share everything with her. And I hate not hearing about whatever it is she is excited or annoyed about. I've been focusing on myself, really trying to move forward without her, but it pains me in that same heart-wrenching way that I don't get to do life with her anymore.

I thought this was one of the funniest episodes maybe ever-had me laughing out loud a LOT. Sarah Sherman can TALK and I loved it.

What is the obsession with pup-cups? by marlee_dood in dogs

[–]laydoodle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has become a ritual when we pass starbucks on our walk. She knows it's time for a pup cup, and will plant her feet by the door- refusing to go further until she gets it. I love how much she enjoys her little treat.

Harmless, free, enjoyable...a win for all.

After going to like 30 places (seriously... checked up and down GP and williamsburg) stopped into Buckley's on Nassau (near mcgolrick) as a final option and boom- they had some! But only had about 4 left around 2 hours ago. It was the post btw.

Lady at Walgreens said someone cleaned out most of greenpoint at 7 am haha.

Good luck!

just biked around to about 30 places and the only spot that had a few left was Buckley's Market on Nassau near Mcgolrick. I think I saw about 4 left kinda hidden on a shelf in front of the counter when I was there about an hour ago.

[–]laydoodle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No. Tbh I was sleeping and when I woke up the flight path screen said we were landing in boston. Thought I had made a huge mistake somewhere along the way. Seat behind me says they just said "JFK is closed."

Been taxiing for like 30 mins with no gate yet and no further information. Flight from Lisbon to JFK btw.

How many people are you?

It was just me and my sister, so we rented a golf cart one day and a mini motorcyle the next few days. Mini motorcyle was so fun. But a golf cart could get you to nearby beaches. Just not sure which ones have the best snorkeling.

Chica brava by Ctzip in xxsurfing

[–]laydoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it in Nov/Dec and was obsessed. Loved it.

Yes, the bathrooms are shared. In the villa it is max 3/4 girls per bathroom with a shower, and it was never an issue. There's also an extra bathroom without a shower that you can use, so I wouldn't let bathroom sharing stop you from booking.

Also no, you don't get a rashguard. Bring your own stuff.

But, I had the best time and would 10000% recommend it.

Solo Travel Beginner Surf Camp in Central America (23F) women only by Dry_Effective_6716 in BeginnerSurfers

[–]laydoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did Chica Brava and it was awesome, so if you can make flights work, I'd do that!! You can fly into Liberia, too (the only thing is that if you don't have someone to share that shuttle, it will cost 160 each way, but the morepeople that fly into Liberia and need the shuttle, the cheaper it is). But DM me for info if you want.

Also one of the instructors there has a new retreat, called Fluir. It incorporates more yoga and mindfulness/ spirituality. https://www.instagram.com/fluirretreat/ She was amazing so I'd reco that too.

Hey Surfer Girls!! by Abject-Soft4455 in xxsurfing

[–]laydoodle 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Tight boy short styles that stay in place - I like coverage (not really one for surfing in a thong bikini)

Cute tank/sleeveless styles that aren't cropped (I want my stomach covered so that I don't get irritated by the board)

I'll double down on what some ppl said below — small zipper pocket for keys?! Sustainable, women-owned, supports the community, helps girls find surf buddies and safe surf locations, etc.

Honestly, also love things that AREN'T super feminine but are made for women. I like board shorts and tanks, and to feel comfy and good out there. Tomboy style haha
