weeks: icon stamps or stickers?

So in my very Type-A way, I’m already planning ahead for next year’s Hobonichi…

I plan to get another Weeks, and really like to use icons to represent various activities (eg work, gym, dentist/doctor, etc). I’m currently using micro icon stickers, but the clear sticker material adds depth to the paper, so I’m finding that the pages get “uneven” week to week because the stickers are building up in the same spots.

In looking ahead to next year, I’m split between swapping to stamps or staying with stickers and I have 2 potential ideas:

  1. Stamps would obviously keep the pages flat- but I’m not sure where I could find micro stamps that would allow me to fit 3-4 stamps per day in the Weeks? I’ve heard of the Beverly Planner ones, but can’t tell how it sizes up on the Hobonichi grids.

  2. Alternatively, I know coffeemonsterzco sells washi icons- do these add thickness to the pages like any other sticker would? It wouldn’t be the ideal micro size, but it would be an option for keeping with stickers.

If anyone has insight or suggestions, I greatly appreciate it! I’m hoping that, whatever my plan is, I can buy it now so I can test it in my current year to make sure I like the layout/look/feel.

(I’m also including a picture of some of my recent layouts for reference of my current icons)

Apologies if this is a repeat post! I saw some similar questions here but am super Type A and was hoping for anyone with a more specific answer for my cruise port😅

I am curious as to what the process is for selecting a boarding time / knowing when to board?

I’m sailing out of Copenhagen this July and have all my Ocean Ready documents uploaded and will have my Medallion with me (shipped to my home).
I saw that some ports have the option to book boarding times, but that will not roll out in Copenhagen until after my cruise (it is literally starting with the cruise after ours).

My family & I would like to do some sightseeing in Copenhagen the morning we embark, and one of the activities requires booking timed entry, but we obviously don’t want to book and pay for anything without knowing what boarding might look like. We’re also the type of people that want to be on the ship as early as possible to begin settling in and taking advantage of food, shopping, etc.

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated!

Hope I’m putting this in the correct sub, but I am scheduled to fly from Edinburgh, Scotland to Los Angeles (LAX) in early August with a layover at PHL with American.

My original flight had a 6 hour layover to give plenty of time for customs, snacks, and just not having to rush. This week, American changed my flight and now, my flight from Edinburgh is scheduled to land at PHL at 1:55pm, and the next flight to LAX departs at 3:35pm.

Is this enough time?

Prior travel experience tells me no way. We will definitely have some checked bags, and 1:55-3:35 is barely the minimum time the airlines tell you to check in for regular flights. And I assume leaving to get our bags and go through customs means we would need to go back through TSA, too?

I do plan to call the airline Monday and speak with them about a later flight (because there are some available just on a different plane configuration), but wanted some insight first, especially from someone who is more familiar with PHL and maybe even layovers through there from international to domestic.

(Also, if it matters, the flight was booked via Alaska Airlines with miles, so Alaska may be the first airline we call)
