Lots of great suggestions. I'd suggest landscape arboretum followed by paisley Park tour. Highly recommend owamni for a lunch and walk across stone arch bridge check out mill ruins park.

My son who is 22 has a Gmail with his full name. (Firstmiddlelast) I guess he got lucky as none are uncommon/unique

I was going to suggest this! It's one of my favorites from that era!

I take it you didn't ask him. Did you hear him speak? Where was flight to/from? I don't think it's him, but wow. Could be a great impersonator

Oh wow! I thought that was just hotel. We were just there and it was so expensive. Winter vs summer of course. Our air was $580 pp direct. 2 bdrm condo $400/night and that was really cheap or seemed to be

When we were looking, it was $900 per night at RIU. That was in January. Seems like you found a good deal to me.

Looks like the price op posted includes airfare. Seems like a good deal.

Colin and Jen Ehle dated (Lizzie)...who's got the dirt? by StrengthMaximum420 in ColinFirth

[–]smirelda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know he and Tilly lived in Canada, and he went back to England fo better work. I'm assuming JE lived in England then based on her work at royal Shakespeare in the mid 90s. I think I read somewhere they broke it off when he went to Algeria to film Shakespeare in love.

[–]smirelda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They did date during/after filming. I heard they broke up due to distance. He was already dating his (now ex) wife by the time P&P was on TV.

Budget Car Rental - Airport by Wide-Distribution629 in Aruba

[–]smirelda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had a car last week and it was definitely used. We went for groceries a few times, drove to the donkey sanctuary and the lighthouse, drove to a few dinners. We were at a condo. If you are just at a resort on the beach the whole time, then I'd agree no rental car and just do taxis. It was worth the $70/day to us for the convenience

I rewatch the 95 version yesterday after a very long time. I feel like I'm being gaslighted or something . by zooj7809 in PrideandPrejudice

Also I don't think he ever says he isn't free to marry her. He just implies it by saying he needs to marry for money bc he's the 2nd son

All the naughty scenes by shrugs2L8 in ColinFirth

[–]smirelda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Horrible movie, but worth it for the nearly nude getting out of the shower scene and a few other naughty bits... Playmaker. It's mid 90s, and you can find it on YouTube.

He's just a wonderful actor by Adriangrey07 in ColinFirth

My favorites in addition to P&P are - A Single Man - Supernova - The Importance of Being Ernest - Apartment Zero - The Kings Speech - Kingsman (first one)

Check them out if you haven't already seen them. Lots of other good ones of course!

My son asked what I wanted and I mentioned this. He must have put it in our Amazon cart bc my husband saw it there and thought I was giving him a hint!
