RodrigueGabriel Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Unlikely. They will start a re-building project that will take almost as long as the original one, due to lack of the proper building skills and debates over funding. Salma Hayek's husband just pledged $113m to a rebuild, with more likely to come from other places. At least they'll be arguing over how to spend the money instead of how to get it.

Peppinio Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 back from Mykonos. it was a blast. the most fun vacation we've ever had. on the was back from Mykonos to Athens, Aegean airline lost one of our bags. now im not sure I will ever get it back. they didn't actually lose it, they just decided not to load bunch of bags on the airplane at Mykonos. Guess they didn't feel like it. Now only God knows where the bag is I love Greece and even buying property in Athens this summer but I've never been to Mykonos but heard only nice things about this place. Where did you stay and what is worth a visit there? Maybe will go this July for 5 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crete on the other hand was beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the best gourmet restaurant i had. The rest of them sucked. Other than boiled crawfish, food was not all that great. Jazz was great, of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Thanks! We are flying up so we won't have a car. Oshawa looks like my best bet though. I'll let you know if I have any questions! Was at least hoping the marlies would have a game but they swept their first round series so no hockey in Toronto while I’m there. Oh well Blue jays game and HHOF will have to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Heaven Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 going to Iceland for a weekend in July on my wife's birthday. I hear its otherworldly. 3 full days in total. Should be enough. Enjoy!!! Its amazingly.......expensive.....One of the best trips I took, however I went in winter, probably much different than in July Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Summer would be best, for sure. We suffered from bad weather when we went. I'd give my spiel, but Blue is much cooler than I, so I will defer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatrosss Posted June 13, 2019 Author Share Posted June 13, 2019 Yes i heard it is very expensive there because nothing grows there, everything is brought over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Heaven Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Since its for your wife's birthday you'll have to do The Blue Lagoon, do some sort of tour, can explore Reyjkavik in one day. Unfortunately I didnt really experience any nightlife there b/c we weren't there on a weekend but I hear its crazy.....now that is where Dunny will come in. Blue Lagoon when you arrive, explore Reyjkavik Do a full day tour Do maybe a day tour/experience nightlife https://guidetoiceland.is/ We used this site to book a tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 We got utterly destroyed on $16 beers and then stood at Baejarins hot dog stand for two hours just hysterical at how awful the hotdogs were. When anybody got angry with our behaviour we just said we were Americans. The Saturday night we had a wedding, so weren't in Reykjavik. Where are you staying, Simon?
