Spring 2021 has come and gone, still in Galapagos with limited internet.
See you... Someday.

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

Found my @lonelyplanet guide from a roadtrip a few years ago ready to plan the summer holiday... Turns out the Portugal guide doesn't include not even a small section on the islands. As if they didn't exist 😥
Azores, where are you?

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@lonelyplanet Hi!
Has the publication date been moved for the new France guide?? I was certain it was early may but now it says end of June (which is too late to plan summer travels).
I'm contraught (confused and distraught).

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@lonelyplanet Hi!
Is there anywhere I can the inside (example pages) of the France guide and France road trips guide (any edition).
I'm trying to choose the right one for me. I am in France so I can't find them in shops as the road trips one is nowhere to be found.
Thanks!

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@lonelyplanet Great! I just had a look.
Just wondering, the road trips one: are the "off the beaten track" recommendations (my favourite part in the normal guides) or is it mostly mainstream? Thanks!

@tlmasmad coucou!
Petit problème dans l'émission d'aujourd'hui, manche 2.
Marilyn est décédée en 1963 et non 1962. Il y a la même erreur dans la chanson "cette année là" d'ailleurs.
Juste une petite précision.
A demain pour une nouvelle émission !

@BryantMassey6 @RobertIrwin I still don't get it. What am I missing?

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@duolingo hi Duo
I need help please. I used to have an iPhone and changed to Android. Now I want to cancel Duolingo super and it's telling me to do it on my iOS device but it's no longer working. Can you help??

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@askryanair Hi, I was looking at flights HER-CRL and only found up to 20kg checked luggage. Is there an option for more? I think I have about 24/25kg. Thanks! (And what are the dimensions for the checked luggage? Or can it be across two bags?)

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@duolingo I only have a few hours left before the next friend quest starts. Where has my reward for the last one gone?? Help please!

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@duolingo Hey Duo, I completed my friend quest and pressed "redeem in shop" as usual, but it's nowhere to be found in the shop. How do I get my 30 minutes of double XP? I worked hard this week, I had to do the quest alone. Thanks!

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@duolingo I've finished everything except the timed challenges - are these free in the super version? What about the time top ups? (Because I had a native Spanish speaker try the third star and even they can't finish on time)
Thanks!

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@AnnGarvin_ I'm at Brussels airport. A VERY big airport, mostly for connecting flights. There's not a single water fountain. The one shop that gives out water (eco-friendly zero waste shop) has closed the tap due to Corona.
I'm starting my 30 hour journey with an empty bottle. This is 2023.

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@AirEuropa hola! Tengo un vuelo BRU-MAD-MEX-CAN y la primera parte es con AE después @Aeromexico. Mandaron un correo para hace el check in pero llegando a la página web dice que no se puede hacer? Que hago? Quiero la tarjeta en mi celular y elegir el asiento. Gracias!

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

And with that, it's timed impossibly to make us buy boosters (again). I did some in my own mother tongue for a friend as a test and it's impossible starting a certain level even if you know it all and type fast). It's sad to see you are so desperate to make people pay.

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@duolingo Help, my Duolingo switched back from old to new (2nd time) and I've lost the progress of two weeks! I was 7 sections away from finishing all legendary levels 2.5hrs ago 😩😭

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

And finally, I have to say I've been at it for nearly three years, and since you changed to the new system it feels the must useless. Questions are so mixed up it doesn't feel you're working on a topic. I get the same questions I had 3 units ago!

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

And finally, those rapid reviews are a sad way to make people pay. In 3 years and 200000XP+ I have less than 5% of gems you need to do these. So it's impossible to do unless you pay, and I was always proud to tell everyone it's all completely free

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

@askryanair Ok. Apparently I can't chat to a real person. Thanks.
I had hoped for a little more service from a customer service account😕

[Claire @TheBookClaire]

Agents will be available on @askryanair Mon-Fri 7am to 7pm and Sat-Sun 9am to 6pm.
I've been waiting three days for one of the seven days they're available to come round... 🤔
