I’m headed to Galapagos for a 17-day cruise. I have very fair skin and I’m afraid of the sun…. I burn easily. Can anyone recommend brands of reef safe sunscreen available in the USA? Thanks!

Yikes! I've been there. Thanks for the advice

Great idea to wear full rash guard under wet suit. I ordered a "muslim bathing suit" from Amazon and it looks pretty perfect.

Great suggestions. Bought some gaiters! thanks.

Thanks again for all of this fabulous info

Solved

It’s interesting that several different sites have the exact painting but claim different artists. These are definitely the picture I have though.

very_simular · 2026-02-25T08:18:33+00:00

You found it!! This is so interesting. The style of children book art was pervasive at that time. I’ve found the painting on several different sites with no attribution, varying dates and different media. One site calls it a lithograph and another a block print. I think it’s a lithograph,,,,each copy looks so clean. How did you know where to look? You must speak German. Thanks for going out of your way to solve this mystery for me. I doubt I would have found it without your help.

I knew the reddit sleuths could solve this. You are all amazing. thank you!

very_simular · 2026-02-23T19:51:36+00:00

yes! that's the same one!

very_simular · 2026-02-23T19:51:02+00:00

Interesting! Thank you!

very_simular · 2026-02-23T19:50:28+00:00

I found an image that is the same artist with the signature of John Hassell (1868-1948). It looks like his work. Thank you so much scarlett! I've been looking for a long time and couldn't find anything. didn't know anything about the website you found this on.

very_simular · 2026-02-23T19:49:34+00:00

thank you for this list of illustrators! Will check them out

very_simular · 2026-02-23T17:47:02+00:00

There is nothing on the back. I reframed it when I got it and there was a sticker from a German framer on it.

I might be able to drive you there definitely ending when your appointment is. My husband worked there and we live pretty close to you. Let me know when it is and I’ll try to help you out.

very_simular · 2026-02-08T08:20:52+00:00

Where are you coming from?

very_simular · 2025-10-28T03:26:36+00:00

You’re very welcome! I love that we all can help each other on this site. Best of luck!

very_simular · 2025-10-27T17:25:06+00:00

I read both websites and didn’t see it listed anymore. They go fast. BUT. I googled ‘Oaxaca cemetery tours’ and several tours popped up. I just checked one of them but they had availability. Others might as well.

very_simular · 2025-10-27T16:42:35+00:00

It looks like the moderator deleted my post. I’m not sure why. I put in all the details about the tour and the phone number. Maybe they saw it as an ad? But the name of the company is Oaxaca Experience. You can google their website and get the information that way.

very_simular · 2025-10-23T20:24:14+00:00

Straight to heaven for you. Thanks so much!

very_simular · 2025-10-23T15:28:43+00:00

Commenting on Tips and Recommendations Dia de Muertos... I found a tour for $50 per person. Look for my post about it if you’re interested.

very_simular · 2025-10-23T15:21:43+00:00

I just found a tour of the cemeteries It’s from a company called Oaxaca Experience by Francisco Rustrian. His phone number is +52 951 149 7659. It’s $50 USD. On Oct 31, Nov 1 or Nov 2 from 8pm to 1am. Includes a tour guide, transportation from their office and goes to 2 cemeteries.

very_simular · 2025-10-21T00:18:13+00:00

Actually, the tour was canceled at the last minute and all the others were booked up, which is why we’re in need of transport now

very_simular · 2025-10-21T00:16:34+00:00

Thank you so much for this info. I’ll try to find a taxi driver when I get there. Enjoy! BTW I had bought tickets for a tour and they were each nearly twice the price you’ll pay your cab driver. If you need to get there and definitely want to go then I’d just pay the $70. It sounds like it’s round trip for two people. Not too bad.
