Cite: “afternoon tickets […] with admission from 02.00 p.m. at the box office on site. The admission however depends on the flow of visitors, ie. emergence from the site. Waiting times for the afternoon tickets can not be excluded.”

So I pay 10 Euros and maybe never get in?

Looks like a last straw or something… :man_shrugging:

Just booked a holiday to Mauritius in September :slightly_smiling_face: :beach_umbrella:

Nope! Wanted somewhere to just plop down and completely chill out. Seems to fit the bill!

With Ryanair? :thinking:

Haha, I don’t think they go there :wink:

(But these *beep*holes with their *beeping* planes are everywhere. And yes, I have several bad experiences with them.)

Yeah, we had a dreadful experience with them too. Utter w*nkers. I’d never use them again.

So you´ll be away for your b-day?

Have a nice one, you deserve it! :hugs:

Yeah, depart on 9th arriving on 10th, so only just.

Thanks :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m struggling to decide how offline to be when I go.

Pros:

  • It would probably do me good to go off the grid, in general
  • I won’t get caught up in any deep discussions / become an annoying holiday partner!

Cons:

  • I might want to post pics or share funny stuff like last time
  • It’s a chilled hol, but sometimes the forum is part of my chill time!
  • I’ll come back with ten days’ worth of forum posts to catch up on

I think that last one might be the deal breaker…

How about a bit of both? :smiley:

During the day, take the time to just enjoy the experience, without feeling the need to document it online as you go. In the evening, if you don’t have plans and you’re chilling at the hotel, you can tell us then about all the nice things you’ve been up to!

Now I am struggling to decide between me granting you your well deserved off-time and the thought of not hearing from you for so long. :crying_cat_face:

I always enjoy being completely offline when on vacation. I often find myself reading old news once I’m back, only to find that indeed I did not miss anything.
