Go to the hospitality options on the Liverpool website (linked below). Choose your match and then see what is available. For non-season ticket holders this is probably the best way to get them. They are very strict on reselling tickets over there so there isn’t a good Stubhub type source.
I’ve had a family member do a hospitality package at Liverpool and had a good experience. I joined a lottery for a single game Chelsea ticket 10ish years ago and was able to get that as well (through Chelsea by paying a small club fee to gain access).

I’d put them up somewhere in Midtown as it’s convenient to a lot of the cooler/younger parts of Atlanta while being only a 20 minute walk to the stadium. Prices for hotels aren’t too expensive thanks to UGA being in the game.

Currently live in Atlanta. If I was you who seems to be looking for a condo, I would live near the Beltline. Hop on there with your dog - plenty of bars, food, etc. Highlands, Midtown, Inman Park, Reynoldstown, Cabbagetown, etc.

So she was upset that Lesbians were shown in a movie? Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but they also exist in the real world.

CFB Hall of Fame and World of Coke are right around the corner from eachother. Should be right up a 14yr olds alley.

Yeah we stayed in Komiza a night and Vis a night as our captain was from there. The blue cave was definitely worth it and was a 10ish minute speed boat ride from Komiza. We thought it was definitely a really cool part of our trip - not sure how much of a detour it would be for y’all (especially if y’all are passing by Hvar).
I believe they have options from other islands as well. We left out of Trogir as well - but returned there at the end (didn’t make it down to Dubrovnik).

re: The BEST movie theater experience you had growing up. (THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE)

The Phantom Menace opening day (was 9yrs old). My dad took me to a 6am showing and then checked me into school late. I had grown up watching the OT on repeat so this was an awesome experience seeing Star Wars in a theater.
Now I make sure to take my dad opening night/day to see any of the new Star Wars movies since the start of the sequels to return the favor.

Yes. Got back from a 7 day catamaran trip a month or so ago. Sail to different islands and anchor - then dinghy into the island or just stay at a marina.
We went through Brac, Hvar, and Vis while over there. (Got the boat out of Split/Trogir)
Drove up to Plitvice- extremely cool and worth the trip as it’s a very unique park.

Clermont Hotel. Cool rooms. Rooftop bar. Location right by Ponce City Market and the beltline.

I believe it was Enterprise who bought National and Alamo. Still privately and family owned.
Enterprise for off-airport and customer service.
National for corporate traveling.
Alamo for price competitive family rentals.

There’s a guy on Twitter named Matt Swider or something close to that. Follow him, and turn on alerts for his tweets. He tweets out when stores release stock and you can follow the link to try and buy one. Took me 2 weeks of following him to land one.

I believe it’s privately held so the government can’t dictate it yet.
re: <$50k Midsize Family SUV

Mazda CX-9. Drives well, has a ton of great features, looks good inside and out, and you can load it out and be at $40k.
Maintenance should be very reasonable as well. I believe Mazda won 2021 Brand of the Year for Consumer Reports as well.

Screen time isn’t really necessary at all for a baby. It the grand scheme of things, it can actually delay development with speech/language/attention span. I would recommend waiting until the kid is a bit older, possibly at least 1 or ideally 2. But to each their own.
My 3 year old loves Bluey, Chico Bon Bon, and The Cat in the Hat series.

If you have a Costco membership, you can login to the Costco site and book a reservation for Enterprise (and I’ll assume others) that gets you a pretty good deal.

Funnily enough had a trip planned for Spring Break there. Ended up canceling it last week and will be heading to the beach instead.
I’ll have to get back there another time.

I did the same thing. Worked the local sort during college in the evenings. They gave a small scholarship per semester as well, and some nice spending money working 20ish hours per week.
I liked everyone I worked with and had no problems at all.

I honestly don’t think that supply is being controlled. I work for a manufacturer and I think it comes down to short sighted decision making when the pandemic hit. Everyone hit the panic button, decreased production and capacity, and then months later realized oh shite even running at 100% we can’t keep up.

Yep used it, but was also looking for some more anecdotal information if anyone has been there more recently with COVID possibly affecting a lot of restaurants being open, tours, etc.

Making an impromptu trip this weekend to Asheville with a pregnant wife and toddler. Looking for any tips on what to do, what might be open, etc?
