Question for those of you who have been to Guatemala: if you've only got a week to work with, would you recommend sticking to the southern half of the country (Antigua, Lake Atitlan, etc), or does it make sense to fly to Flores for Tikal, and then perhaps head back by bus to Antigua, maybe via Semuc Champey?
Focus of this trip is nature/hiking/ruins. I'm reeeeally tempted to try for Tikal but I'm worried that it simply doesn't make sense with only a week. Maybe it's better done on a future trip to Belize? That being said, I did find a flight that works out quite well with my flight into the country, so I could potentially get to Flores on my first day of travel (it'll just be a very long day).
Edit: Thanks all for the advice! Decided to prioritize the north. Booked a flight to Flores (departs 2.5 hours after I arrive in the country), so it looks like my Guatemala time will be a slow road trip back from Tikal. Won't make Belize this trip but am hoping to return to the area soon!
According to Wikipedia.
She could take him to the court. She had.... concrete evidence
So a pal (f/34) had a second date with a guy that was supposed to be dinner at his flat. Beforehand, she mentions to him our girl code and that she'd get shit from me if she went without at least his second name and address. So she asks for it, and instant radio silence. She says, if that's not OK, they can get dinner at a place nearby. He eventually replies that they can meet up and have a coffee and chat. Alarm bells are ringing and she mentions something along the lines of being downgraded from dinner to coffee because she asked for his address, where she would be going anyway. He thinks it's really weird and insulting that she would ask for this beforehand. She tries to explain that's its just a very basic safety precaution and no judgement on him but at this point his reluctance is giving her alarm bells so they'll just leave it. Best of luck in his future endeavours etc. His retort is that 'someone must have seriously hurt her in the past' and he's not looking for that. He actually warns her how off-putting it is and that she probably shouldn't do it again in the future. She tells him she always asks and no one has ever had a problem with it in the past. She could tell he was gearing up to war and peace in response after that so just deleted and blocked.
Very proud of her but kinda gobsmacked that someone in this day and age could get soo uppity about this. I have literally taken a photo of a guys number plate before getting in his car to go on a date and they have laughed it off. They could be a serial killer or a mad rapist. I've said this to them in my experience most guys get it. This guy did not. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or something like it?
Edit: the plan was to meet her off the train and take her to his place.
I have found that a lot of men and their families (particularly if they are religious) are very insistent on women and step children changing their last names after marriage. In today's world, I feel this is completely unnecessary and robs people of their established identity. Those who wish to can do it, but it's not something that should be forced/expected. It is by NO MEANS a measure of how much someone loves another person and shouldn't be treated as such.
Edit: It seems like people don't understand the post at all. It's not about changing names after marriage being removed as a practice, it's about changing names after marriage not being forced/expected if the woman/child in question doesn't want to. People losing the plot all over.
Edit 2: A lot of people claiming people have a choice, this is reddit. Not reddit USA or reddit UK. Just because your country allows it doesn't mean there's tens upon tens of them that don't.
Edit 3: It's really shocking that the first world minority comprising of maybe 400 million in a population of 8 billion believe that if this is popular among them it's popular opinion. Well I shouldn't really be surprised tho.
Because they are. Of course, Tikal is just Knuckles' ancestor, but Nack, Bark and Bean haven't gotten any game love since the 90s. I didn't know who Tikal was, having played Sonic Adventure 2 Battle before Sonic Adventure DX, but she became one of my favorites due to her design and color and more hedgies than echidnas in the game. Of course people remember her, but it's sad Sonic Team just threw her aside and forgot about her.
And yeah, Nack, Bark and Bean are more prominent in the comics, but I feel they need to return to add to Sonic's rogues gallery. They'd make great rivals that aren't Sonic clone, Eggman or recent edgy rival. I'd also add Silver Sonic and Kiki to that, but maybe an upgraded Kiki that does more than throw bombs.
On a side note: Emerl from Battle and the Babylon Rogues are kinda forgotten as well, same for Silver Sonic from Sonic 2. So is Omochao but I'd prefer Omochao stay forgotten :)
Trying to book a day tour from San-Ignacio to Tikal in the first week of December, but theyβre saying the border restrictions would require us to stay in Guatemala for 3 days before re-entering Belize.
I tried a quick online search, but having a difficult time finding official and updated information on this.
Just trying to plan accordingly, and if anyone has any alternative ideas (if Tikal is off the tables), please let me know :)
Any help would be much appreciated!
Used to go to school with a Bossman, which was pretty cool. And recently there was a boxing match between Wilder vs Fury, which together sounds like something from Clash of the Titans.
The first of which is Stefon Diggs, drafted by Minnesota in the 5th round of the 2015 draft. He quickly proved to be a draft steal for the Vikings, providing a 1-2 punch alongside Adam Thielen and became a franchise legend due to the Minneapolis Miracle. After being traded to Buffalo, he has earned back-to-back Pro Bowls in both years with the Bills.
The second active player is Quandre Diggs, drafted one round after Stefon by the Lions (Surprisingly though, they aren't related). Stuck in the perpetual quagmire of Detroit, in wasn't until he was traded to Seattle that he truly flourished. Providing an excellent replacement after the Earl Thomas flameout. While he hasn't been as good as Thomas was, he's still a very good player that the Seahawks defense sorely needs. He's even carved out a little niche as a ballhawk. Intercepting 13 passes over the past two-and-a-half seasons.
Finally, we have the most recent entry into the Diggs Echelon of Eliteness, Trevon Diggs. Trevon's burst onto the scene in a big way this year. If Quandre Diggs could be considered a ball hawk, than Trevon Diggs is a BALL EAGLE. Dude's brought back interceptions like it's the 80's all over again. Tying the Cowboys franchise record in interceptions and shattering all recent interception trends. Dude's on an absolute tear and you can't help but be impressed
So in summary, while Diggs may be a pretty rare last name for NFL players, the ones that do have that name have a pretty good track record
I asked him why, and he said because the customer is always right.
I hope she takes him to court. She has concrete evidence.
