.The Presidio of Monterey's Hobson Recreation Center extended its normal operating hours throughout the annual 24-hour block leave shuttle bus program departure period Dec. 18 and 19. The Presidio Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation (FMWR) provided refreshments for service members and a place to relax, call home and rest comfortably while waiting for their buses to depart to their flights at San Francisco and San Jose airports. Due to the volume of Presidio service members that depart for block leave every year in December FMWR uses an online ticketing and scheduling for participants to plan and book their shuttle destinations and travel times. A check-in and information desk was set up at the departure site to assist and ensure service members made a smooth connection to their flights. The program is coordinated and run by the Presidio Outdoor Recreation & Leisure Travel Services, but the entire administrative staff of the Presidio FMWR works the 24-hour departure period to ensure participants make it home for the holidays. In January FMWR "reverses" the program so that service members returning to the Presidio are bussed back from the airports safely and affordably.

Edinburgh International Climbing Arena is an adventure sports facility located in Ratho, on the outskirts of Edinburgh, Scotland. When it opened, it was the largest indoor climbing arena in the world.[1] The centre opened in 2003, but in 2005 the company running it went into receivership, and the centre was temporarily closed. In 2007 the centre reopened under a new owner, Edinburgh Leisure, a not-for-profit company part-funded by City of Edinburgh Council. Since then, visitor numbers to the centre have grown and parts that were not complete, like the office suites, have been completed.
The centre offers the world's largest indoor climbing arena, bouldering facilities, the Scottish National Judo Academy, and an aerial assault course. The centre was originally going to host a scuba diving tank, but this facility was delayed and later scrapped when the centre went into administration. The centre also has a gym that is specifically aimed at climbers with large amounts of strength and cardio equipment.
Coaching and training with an instructor is available, as well as courses including indoor movement skills, indoor lead climbing, and a few less standard climbing course such as sea stack and ridge climbing. Instructor training can lead to awards and qualifications upon completion. The centre runs off-site courses in outdoor climbing, skiing, hillwalking and water sports.
The climbing centre is located just to the west of the village of Ratho, and beside the M9 motorway, around 8 miles (13 km) from central Edinburgh. The centre is located in the former Ratho Quarry, which closed in 1905. The location was chosen because of the shape of the quarry, which allowed a roof to be placed over a section of it. Outside, the rest of the grounds were landscaped, and traditional climbing is available on the rock face of the quarry. Its location close to Edinburgh, around a 20 minute drive, meant a large potential customer base. The proximity of Edinburgh Airport means that climbers from all over Europe can visit the centre for a weekend. The airport is around a 20 minute walk from the facility, and a shuttlebus service operates between the two.
The climbing centre over the years has suffered a number a setbacks and problems with the construction and design of the facility. When the company that owned it back in 2005 went under, the roof was in dire need of repair. When it rained water would come through the roof and right down into the main arena. Climbers complained that the wall was constantly wet and wondered why a simpler design was not put forward that would have been more practical. This water also collected under the floor that was made out of locally sourced rock. Around the edge of the arena where the floor met with the bare rock water was visible just an inch under the floor level. Since the takeover by Edinburgh Leisure the roof problem has been mostly fixed and some repairs around the outside of the roof have been carried out.
Complaints about the temperature of the centre have also been raised a number of times. The main arena is not heated because of its size and therefore in winter temperatures can drop to almost 0°C inside. This made it very hard for climbers to get warmed up before performing a stressful activity. Since the takeover the arena is still not heated but there are small heaters placed around the floor where people can warm up between climbs.

Rear American Apparel ad. Bus heading south on Western Ave making its way back to the yard in Paramount.
Just travelled 3674 miles in 8 hours, ate some disgusting airplane food, waited over an hour for my shuttlebus, that went all over Manhattan before dropping me off at my hostel! All after about an hours sleep the night before.
I'm shattered. But I'm in New York City :D

Nasa liblib na lugar ito at hindi mo aakalaing may nakatagong vintage bus sa lugar na kinalalagyan niya dahil halos puro puno at bukid lang ang madadaanan. Makikita sa tabi niya kung gaano kakitid 'yung daan, hindi na kasya ang sasakyan kapag salubungan. Sayang ito dahil napabayaan na. Wala na 'yung mga upuan at ibang gamit sa loob, basag na rin 'yung mga salamin. Mukhang naghihintay na lang ubusin ng kalawang.
