It’s Dubrovnik, Croatia

I think they should promote the delivery service but not ban the bags. Seems too heavy handed.

The clash between Dubrovnik’s picturesque cobblestones and the constant rumble of suitcase wheels has become too much for the locals. These historic streets amplify every bump and rattle, turning what should be a peaceful stroll into a noisy nuisance. To address this, Dubrovnik has decided to ban rolling suitcases within the city limits.

Starting November 2023, tourists will need to carry their luggage or

Nothing new Dalmatians, finding a way to squeeze turists.

they could have made night time ordinance, or pass the “fee” to yearly taxation for apartment owners as well, as they earn from that same noise.

old city are narrow streets with stairs, so no cars, beside probably city utilities vehicle on main plaza from time to time.

If the cars are already absent, then that’s fine. If there are still cars about, seems the rolling luggage isn’t the biggest nuisance by a couple orders of magnitude.

Old city is pedestrian zone, so only vehicles with special permit are allowed.

Click, click. Click, click. Don’t blame them.

Oisteink,

They’re lucky to live in a time where horses and donkeys are rare sights. And wagons with steel-brimmed wheels

It sounds like you are focused on the Pacific Coast and western North America. If the East is also a choice, I love the White Mountains in New Hampshire. The mountains are small in stature compared to the Rockies, but they have beautiful views and challenging hikes. There are also outdoor touristy things as well.

Pack an extra fancy outfit in your carryon, in case the airline loses your checked bag.

Wear a heavy coat instead of packing it.

Bring a travel pillow.

Pack travel sized toiletries.

I hope that during the trial period they’re taking lots of measurements of different factors to see whether or not this might be a good idea. It’s better than just doing it and praying it will help.

Letstakealook, in I worked on cruises for 3 years. Here are 6 things I'd never do on board.

I wouldn’t go on a cruise. Not only are they horrific for the environment and plagued by slave labor, your crammed on crowded can in the middle of the ocean with a bunch of unsanitary morons and assholes. What exactly is the appeal here?

GONADS125,

You also lose your native rights/laws in international waters. The security operating on the cruise ship might hold/be bound by starkly different ethical/lawful beliefs than you are accustomed to.

Tl;dr

  1. Pay for upgrades in the main dining room.
  2. Buy the drink package.
  3. Touch shared contact surfaces with my fingers.
  4. Wear my room key around my neck.
  5. Misname the ship.
  6. Plan my port-day itinerary so tight that I may not make it back to the ship on time

That’s some heavy “not worth the reading time” stuff
