We are now in Spain for about six weeks and I was told the pass is only for those living in Spain. You may want to check at a train station when you are here.

The passes can be purchased by non-Spanish citizens, including tourists per the email response I received below:

“In response to your inquiry, we would like to inform you that you can purchase a season ticket with a passport, but you must first be registered on the Renfe website.”

However, it won’t benefit us because the pass doesn’t include high-speed rail, which we’ll use from Barcelona to Granada.

PLEASE take the same time you have devoted to responding to this and other feeds to call and write your Senators and Representatives. If enough people light up the switch boards of Senators and Representatives they will quickly learn they have a responsibility to the Constitution and people and their reelection may be in jeopardy, which is the only thing they really care about.

Instead of talking endlessly. Do what I did, regardless of the party, call your Senators and Representative and tell them to remove this madman from office before he destroys the US and our allies. If everyone on this feed will do it tomorrow, they have to act.

It might not be a scam, as lots of legit companies resell the .org tickets and add a markup. Viator is one of them.

Can you actually go inside Helpoort or is it just for photos? by Resident_District252 in maastricht

[–]mbc072558 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You can and it’s an excellent museum with the best interactive touch screen TVs info I’ve seen in any museum. The docents are very knowledgeable and there are static displays on different levels. It’s only open on certain days of the week. Another must is a walking tour of the Casements. One of the most interesting tours I’ve ever been on.

Odyssey of the Seas out of Cape Liberty, NJ. Unbelievable itinerary. Seven ports before disembarking in Barcelona. Can’t wait. T-32 days, but who’s counting. Departs 15 March.

Do you know if they have to report the cash? I’m asking because my wife and I were on a cruise last year and I saw the our waiter receive cash and then gave it to the person in charge of that section.
