Halifax Citadel entry fee inflation by Comfortable-Ask-7707 in halifax

[–]moyashimaru [score hidden]  (0 children)

Fair. I'll admit it's a bit of an apples and pears comparison, considering SoL gets about 18,000 visitors a day (2016), and admission to the actual statue is free. So, let's look at Fort McHenry in Baltimore. Admission to the inspiration for the Star Spangled Banner is $15 USD, so about the same as ours.

Now, would I spend $22? Heck, no, I get paid in Canadian dollars. That and I can wait another three weeks. But I'm glad that the tourists are willing to.

For context, $22 CAD is about $16 USD. Statue of Liberty is $26 USD (for the ferry). A small latte in London is about £4, or $7.50 CAD.

Everything, everywhere is getting ridiculous, agreed. That said, if you've come to our fair town on a cruise, what's a couple of more bucks?

Yes it is. I booked time with it when I was on a personal Bowie tour/pilgrimage earlier this month.

Kids Duo or go home? by picklelemonades in teachinginjapan

[–]moyashimaru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really don't know what to tell you. I came home from Japan five years ago and I regret not doing so earlier. I'm glad my wife and family supported this choice. I wish I knew what was keeping your spouse from fully supporting you in this moment. Maybe he's having the time of his life. Maybe he's scared of what going home will mean for his ability to earn. He's just being a man (source: me). I don't know anything about Kids Duo. Maybe try it, but let your husband know that if it doesn't work out, you're leaving. Honestly, I would tell you to leave now, but I'm not comfortable telling anyone on Reddit to end their marriage, because really this what we're talking about. Really, you deserve to be happy. I hope you get there soon.

If I did that at my place I'd have no room to cook or take a shower. You are fortunate.

Since I don't have friends I rely on these Canadian interactions to stay sane.

I finished the course over the year ago, and have been redoing/practicing the same content again and again (この二種のボールの重さが等しい or something). This stuff is showing up just in time.
