  1. Did some fishing with Tino. This place is changing fast. Big 3 4 story hotels goimg up. I bet blue Tang gets bought soon. The owner is probably 75. I met him and his wife a few trips ago. This is next to the blue Tang
  2. Here. Honestly never seen the BZE airport this crowded. Also Trop made me check my 35l backpack. New policy apperently. Sucks
  3. It would perfect to get the sub and travel credit. Keep until he's done with his trip and then cxl.
  4. Chase Saphire Reserve has a massive 100k SUB. I'd also grab a hotel card or two. Hilton or Marriott. I have the Aspire card. If you stay at Hilton you can really rack up the honors pts. Venture X is a good earnign card but the hotels through their portal are pretty week and I'd had issues booking through their site and a different story when I arrived like. Bookign a king and the hotel had me down for a double. Also half day in Brussels to see the little peeing kid and have a few beers at Delirium Cafe and head to Bruges or Ghent IMO
  5. Headed down on Saturday morning for 4 nights at the Blue Tang. I was supposed to leave on Monday for Roatan but I had some work chaos that I thought would wreck my trip so I cxld it only to find out I dont need to be in office next week. Flights were cheap pre- 4th of July. They triple on the following wknd. Sunday fishing with Tino. Monday Caye Caulker and chill at the Split and then just hang out by the pool. Maybe get a massage on one of those places over the water. Tuesday maybe secret beach/truck stop? Back in time to hit he crab races and win some money. The chicken drop moved somewhere south apparently. Is it even around still? Anything else new? I haven't been since Dec of 2023. I think this is my 8th visit in 10 years Foods. Hit the Caye Mart for eggs, veggies, hot sauce. Cook my own catch. Make ceviche. Blue Tang will set the grill up for me. Hope I get a king mackeral. That is such a great grilling fish. Pupuseria Salvadoreno. Caramba

    London

    I haven't taken currency to a country in a decade and that's at least 20 different countries. ATMs are everywhere these days and I'm including places like Laos, Nicaragua, etc

    London

    London is largely cashless
  9. The first time I went to Tokyo about 8 years ago it seemed like no one spoke English. Last summer was completely different

    2025 Club World Cup

    Just back to the hotel from the PSG match. That sun cooked me and my daughter until the 70th min. The Bota fans were insane. Out here for the girl academy summer showcase so more soccer in my immediate future.
  11. Ok. I've been to Japan 3x. Once as a kid. Once for 3 nights in Tokyo and last summer for 9 days. Is there nothing to see outside of Seoul? Thats why I was focused more on S. Korea.
  12. Bump. S. Korea is next on my country list for a big 10 day trip. I was thinking: 7 nights in S. Korea and then 2 or 3 nights in Osaka on my way back because I love Japan. Looks like the last two weeks of September. Weather should be stellar
  13. Now that I am single again and just got a massive pay increase. I am thinking of going ot S. Korea and then stopping in Osaka for 3 nights with one day going up to Kyoto. Or maybe just do 3 days eating and drinking in Osaka.
  14. Everything around downtown is gentrifying. Pearl. All the area west of the Alamodome. South by Brack. Hell with UTSA adding to the downtown campus thats started too
  15. I'll have no ill will if he does leave. He stuck it out under a terrible owner and was always professional and got his trophy. I hope Frank will find a way to keep him
  16. Anyone want to do a summary of who is coming/going/staying? How does Franks style match with our current roster?

    Roatan

    Normaly I am a boutique hotel kind of traveler when with someone but as a solo I am going with a bigger resort with the hopes there will be some ass to look at it Sounds like I should fish snorket do an ATV ride, hit some decent little restaurants and bars and then sit by the pool and scope the talent while consuming beers

    Roatan

    Bump. Closing out my last Central American country. Honduras specifically Roatan. Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Panama, Nicaragua and Guatemala all checked off. Staying down in West Bay at Infinity Bay. 5 nights. 4.5 days. I will have a rental car. Fishing the first day and doing a snorkeling trip on the 3rd day. I'll have two days to either do nothing and sit by the pool or wander around. I am trying to find an ATV jungle kind of thing but they all require min 2 people and I'm doing this solo. Any foods, tours, dive bars, etc I should hit up?
  19. I'm impartial. I think he should have gotten another year but I also understand 17th even with injuries isn't acceptable
  20. And the cycle begins again.. Sigh
  21. Does anyone have fishing recs for roatan Honduras?
  22. Twitters says Ange has been on holiday and is back in London to discuss his future
  23. Love it. I'll be watching
