Start in Switzerland then go south through Italy.
Car experiences in Italy ahem Ferrari and Lamborghini; see about factory tours or a driving experience.
Fly fishing and day trip or train through the mountains in Switzerland.
Scilla swordfishing would be fun or just hit Naples and do a fishing charter there or the many lakes in Italy.
Mix in things for yourself obviously, but taking him on a couple of things just for him would be fun for everyone.
Plus pizza and pasta everyday.

re: A buddy and his wife just had a newborn. What to get the kid?

I like to get new parents uber eats gift cards. Not having to cook a meal or two when exhausted is nice.
If you live in a smaller town, picking up lunch/cooking and dropping it off is a good option too.

re: Hotels in Paris recommendations please
Posted by Tygra on 12/5/24 at 9:59 am to TigahTeeth
Please don’t do Disney with that short amount of time there. As the other poster said Paris itself is enough for a girl. Here’s a list of things a daughter would enjoy outside of Disney.

We did a tour on a Tuk Tuk and they’re all highly rated. We used it to drop us off at a different destination from the hotel and took an uber back. There’s one where kids under 12 are free.the vehicle can get you super close to attractions and you can get out and take photos and hop back in. It’s like a ride. You’ll see a lot of the city this way without the confines of a bus or exhausting yourself walking.
Now the bateaux on the Seine don’t have the best food but she would love it.
If you want to do a day trip I would do Versailles; most girls would love to see a real palace. Book a tour for it as lines are crazy long.

Maybe you need to drink alcohol. That sounds like the issue but I’m no doctor.

Generally we buy fresh never frozen shrimp often from the shrimper but they are not live like crawfish or lobster.
re: Hotel near MSY with parking and shuttle

Have left car at Hilton and been fine. They offer 7 days free parking for one night stay. Many flight crews stay there so shuttles are frequent.
re: BVI resorts with young kids
Posted by Tygra on 6/2/24 at 1:04 pm to Mr Sausage
I’ve only stayed at a very nice resort one time and it is not a kid friendly place and not on an island he mentioned. IMO he’s being polite by asking where the more kid friendly places would be.
He also said “places to stay” which includes vacation rentals. I don’t know much about those since we are there to sail when we visit.
I have seen many kids vacationing in the BVIs though, but generally on boats. Never really paid attention to it when we were making stops at resorts. We had our 6 and 3 year old niece and nephew on the cat with us and it went really well. We ate at nice restaurants in resorts with them. They didn’t bother anyone and did great on the boat. We also hung out on the beach with them by a couple of different resorts.
Definitely ran into more rude drunk adults than anything but I try not to let anyone else ruin my good time. I’m there for the wind and painkillers.

I attach a bear bell to my pack so I don’t sneak up on one. It has a silencer for when it’s not needed. I’ve brought spray with me in grizzly country, but sometimes it’s so windy I’m not even sure how much it would help, but at least I could try I guess. With small kids I’d likely bring it.

FWIW Marketing is a part of the business college not Manship. I see what you mean though.
Capt Picard really messed this guy up

Used Voyage Charters in the past with great service. They offer captain and chef charters, although we bareboat.

Enjoyed Zaika in Kensington. Kind of on the fancy side. At Dishoom we ordered everything the server suggested. Everything was good.
If it was planned he likely staked out the area previously. I’d look at old ring footage for the last week for a young guy.
Also ask neighbors (not just next door but around the block) to check theirs for the time frame he was stolen and maybe somebody picked up the vehicle he used. You never know it might help narrow it down.
I’m sure you thought of this but just in case you hadn’t.

You had a reservation at which lot?
Did they let you enter the lot?

My only recommendation is to book it as soon as possible. It fills up quickly.
I tried booking it once months in advance on a non holiday week, but there was no availability except for the large places.
