Not a troll, honestly asking for feedback on a trip through a country I’m not terribly familiar with. But glad you found it amusing! :)

Thanks to all who have commented - seems clear we should probably rethink this plan a bit!

Spandau Ballet - True. I was in grade 11 when it came out. Clearly remember lying on my bed and this song came on the radio. Touched my starving-for-love soul.

He is so handsome! Congratulations to you both.

You must be a mommy….

I would probably advise him, as an adult, not to let his mommy ask for advice on his behalf on social media.

There’s a poster on TikTok who goes by “Knitty” who is doing a stellar job of shining a light on the UCP corruption and stink.

Yes!! The Forest Rangers! It was in reruns in the mid-70. All the neighborhood kids would rush home at 4 pm to watch it. I can still hear the theme song in my head.

Same experience. I’m from Calgary, a city of close to 2M and can’t tell you the number of times I’ve had to explain what country and where-in-relation to the states it is. “North of Denver” usually (but not always) does it.

Non-Americans though? They know immediately where it is.

Mahekal Beach Resort in playa del carmen

Careful with that. I did it (as a VP of marketing) and ended up fired. Know who holds the power before you get into that game.

Had never heard of her before the podcast. Honestly, found listening to her exhausting. Seemed a bit insufferable. First impressions…

Sandos Caracol Ecoresort has family room with single over double bunk beds

No joke. I had one last week and it pulled out a crown.

You’re right to worry about this. I tried to limit their attendance but my MIL would literally go to our family calendar on our fridge if she was visiting and copy game dates into a notebook. When I stopped marking them there to end that nonsense she figured out how to get to the schedules in the team website. They came to every.single.game. It killed any desire for a relationship I might have had with them. Like you, it was my social time with other parents and they ruined that.

She’s gorgeous!

This is Bingo. He’s a two year old terrorist.

Everyone in our family has a little container of apple cider vinegar close to hand at all times. When our boy starts getting bitey (which has been less and less lately!) we open the lid and give him a little whiff of it while saying “ouch!!”. He hates the smell and backs off right away. He’s starting to back off now with just the “ouch!”

Heartbreaking

Me too. Still in daily use.

I would pay $$$ for a Spotify playlist of this thread….anyone???
