on the highway , not long...city driving , never...How long does it take to begin feeling comfortable?
That's the way it is in most of the world. I believe North America is an anomaly in that regard.the urban areas are loaded with traffic circles
Depends upon the city. Clean grids are OK. Sydney was more challenging. London must be the worst. I did not mind the traffic circles. Parking lots can be problematic.on the highway , not long...city driving , never...
Yes. Amusingly, on the way home from LAX in my own car today I once turned on the windshield wiper instead of the turn signal. My first car, 1971 BMW Bavaria, had the turn signal lever on the right.biggest problem for me was, the damn windshield wiper stalk is reversed with the turn signal stalk...
Lonnie lives about 5 miles from LAX. We leave Liz' mother's 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe there and take a $25 Lyft from there instead of $80+ from home.You parked your car at the airport for five weeks?
And I was in my 2010's decade Lange RX100's. We donated both to Afriski at the end of the day. This freed up room for 4 bottles of South African wine in our checked luggage.Liz was in her 2014 Aspen/Jim Lindsey boots

I drove up to the Blue Mountains upon arrival in Sydney. The drive back to our hotel at Manly Beach was tough. I was sticking my head out the open window to stay awake.I don’t recommend driving 750km solo towards Hotham from Sydney on your first day
Rome is "right side" for me but was still nuts. But ski country in Italy is like other places. I like the Italian autostrada for higher speed flow of traffic than the other alpine countries.But Milan and Turin with their crazy drivers would be the toughest ‘wrong side of the road’ driving for me.
For a 600 vertical ski area with only one real run located forever away from home, I suspect I would never bring boots in my luggage and just rent whatever terrible stuff they had on hand. For bringing back more than planned, I would just buy some sort of bag on the spot for cheap...And I was in my 2010's decade Lange RX100's. We donated both to Afriski at the end of the day.
The extra bag might be cheap but the excess charge for checking it on the way home won't be. We anticipated that the ski boots neither one of us would use again would be replaced by wine. With the T-bar not running I was glad to be in my own boots for the unplanned hiking.I would just buy some sort of bag on the spot for cheap...
