hetalia axis & allies (+ canada) xmas headcanons

1.6k words ~ gender neutral headcanons

tw: uhhh christmas obviously. mention of religion and underwear?? uh... i think that's it

a/n: this is my first christmas as a jewish convert so that's been weird. anyway I just wanted something quick, so its mostly a list of gift ideas (:

America

Alfred is SUCH a huge Christmas fan. I mean, canonically he dresses up as Santa, so he goes all out for the entire month of December. He's been working on a huge holiday home display for decades, and it shows.

He plays Santa at his local mall during the weeks leading up to Christmas; and on the night of, he hands out hot cocoa outside his house. It's fun, but it also means he's a little distracted when it comes to you.

What he would get you: Posters of your favourite movies, super comfy pyjamas, expensive figures of characters you like, candy you like but never get for yourself, model planes or Legos for you two to build together, novelty pens, a stupid cowboy costume so you can match <3, those handmade coupons because he 1. Loves you and 2. Forgot about Christmas until yesterday

What he would want: Any video games, Funko Pops, vinyls of music he likes, those big packs of shirts (he is constantly running out of shirts because he rips or irreparably stains them,) Marvel comics, anything with an eagle on it, those mini wacky waving inflatable tube men things, bulk pens and pencils because he also breaks those constantly-

England

Arthur is not big into Christmas and never has been. He'll celebrate with you, but he's not going out when it comes to any aspect. If anything, he finds it a little exhausting getting gifts for everyone

But, he does adore walking around and looking at all the lights. He'll do that a couple times with you in December.

What he would get you: Any novel you’ve mentioned even once, tickets to a concert both of you will enjoy, classy jackets that fit you perfectly, cute keychains, fancy art supplies, fragrances that remind him of you, bags/purses that fit your style, CDs

What he would want: Sewing supplies (thread, new needles, new fabric scissors,) framed photos of the two of you, Doctor Who merch, foreign tea, a book on how to take care of your eyebrows properly (he will not learn otherwise,) slippers, those sarcastic magnets that all millennial women have at least one of, any ridiculous piece of merch with the union jack on it

France

Francis has very mixed feelings about Christmas. On one hand, he hates how consumerist it has become, but on the other hand, nothing makes him happier than seeing the joy the season brings to others.

Plus, he does enjoy giving and receiving presents. The music too? Wonderful. As long as you don't get too stressed out, the holiday should be perfect.

What he would get you: Tons of clothes; stuff that's already your style, and completely new stuff, room decorations (NOT posters,) a reservation at a nice restaurant, bracelets that he made for you, makeup (if you like that kind of thing,) candles that smell like his cologne, CHEESE

What he would want: Fancy fabric, any clothes (he doesn’t care what they are as long as you think they’d look good on him…) paintings or photography, literally ANYTHING creative you’ve made, hair ties (he loses at least 5 a day,) bird stuffed animals, (Basically anything! Francis is not picky)

China

Christmas is a new occurrence for Yao, and he isn't the biggest fan. He'll buy you stuff for it, but he would do that normally. The lights and the music aren't anything special to him either. Basically, he won't celebrate unless you want to.

What he would get you: Elaborate, very expensive jewellery, huge stuff like a car, Chinese cookbooks, traditional clothes that he made specifically to represent you (: luxury handbags (that he got at SUCH a good discount,) tons of weird off-brand merch of your favourite show, probably a nice meal too!

What he would want: Yao is hard to buy for. Soft robes, stuff to help with back pain, face masks, Hello Kitty keychains… reading glasses maybe?

Russia

Although he isn't as excited about Christmas as he is about the New Year, he still loves the holiday. It's a nice excuse to see family, and everyone is just so happy around the season! He's especially excited to celebrate it with you.

He's not the best at giving gifts, but he could be worse. Regardless of whether you like all of it, you're gonna get a lot of stuff.

(Also, he plays Santa for the kids sometimes. It's so cute-)

What he would get you: Random knick-knacks he probably found at a local market, knitted hats and gloves in your favourite colour, a scarf to match his, tickets to go somewhere warm on vacation, stuffed animals! books that made him think of you (usually philosophical or religious novels,) pretty rocks (:

What he would want: SUNFLOWERS! (This works for every occasion,) baked goods, clothes that aren’t 250 years old- new doilies and paintings to decorate his house, pictures of yourself, friendship bracelets, stuffed animals, if you can make a scarf somehow, DO THAT

North Italy

Feliciano cares about Christmas in a more religious way, but he's never mad about getting presents. So, he'll probably spend most of the day in church, but he still did put a lot of effort into getting you stuff you love.

What he would get you: Pajamas & bath robes, shitty romance novels that he wants you to read, weird hand-made knick-knacks, makeup, strange mugs that he found at a thrift store, a painting of you (: probably a pair of his boxers-

What he would want: New paint brushes, novelty pasta shapes, fancy jackets, any art that you’ve made (regardless of quality,) cat stuffed animals, The Ability To Get A Grip, skincare products, shiny garbage (For art purposes, duh,) those handmade coupon things

Germany

Ludwig does not enjoy Christmas particularly. He's terrible at giving gifts but he wants to so desperately that he spends all of winter stressing out about it. Yes, he's excited to see your reaction to his gifts, but at what cost?!

Although he does still like all the decorations at least. Maybe he just likes re-decorating though.

What he would get you: Puzzles you can complete together, soft sweaters, practical stuff you need (like book bags, lens cloths, that kind of thing,) stationery, reservations for private tours at museums you would find interesting, a subscription to whatever silly service you want (:

What he would want: Books about city planning, nerdy card games, a fun lanyard, a new coffee machine, those aroma-therapy diffuser things, household tools like vacuums and stuff (Get him an air fryer. He’s going to be fascinated.) stress balls, pens (He is boring.)

Japan

Kiku really has no particular feelings towards Christmas. If you weren't there, the most he would do was put up a mini tree. He's stressed out by both giving and receiving presents and is only willing to do that kind of thing if you want to.

What he would get you: Electronics, merch of your favourite Sanrio character, books that he thinks you’ll like, stickers, a bento box, comfy sweatpants, cute hairpins, plushies from your favourite media, a bunch of pillows, some obscure Japanese snacks too!

What he would want: Miku figures, posters, video games, manga, general nerdy stuff, history novels (he likes to correct them,) blackout curtains, cute face masks, a Polaroid camera, a guide on socialization (Seriously.) a knit scarf, if you can knit (:

South Italy

Romano desperately wants to care about Jesus more than getting gifts. He's a devout catholic, g*ddamnit! But... he does just really love eating baked goods and getting gifts more than anything. Getting together with family, the music, the lights, he just ADORES the holiday.

What he would get you: Blankets and pillows, your favourite snacks, clothes that are a little more revealing- cruise tickets (if going on wouldn’t be hell for you,) a journal where he wrote down all of the things he loves about you (completely honestly,) religious items, fancy perfumes

What he would want: Paintings from local artists, post-its (so he can finally remember SOMETHING,) anything with the Italian flag on it, stupid bumper stickers, pictures of the other nations that you’ve written insults on, fancy patterned scarves and fabric

Prussia

Like Alfred, Gilbert loves Christmas in a very childish way. He embraces that side of himself during the holidays and he'd love it if you joined him in that. He constantly insists on going out to see the lights, and he just can't get enough of Christmas movies. Even the bad ones (He's a Hallmark girlie.)

What he would get you: A vintage music box, hair dye, DVDs of your favourite movies (just to have,) stationery, random snacks he picked up from a gas station an hour ago, weirdly sentimental jewellery? Vintage journals, pictures of himself

What he would want: Coupons (???) goofy temporary tattoos, metal CDs, tea (he’s weirdly embarrassed about liking tea and doesn’t buy it for himself?) vintage maps that he can frame and hang up, probably like, WD40? DC comics, novelty trophies, Pokemon cards, video games

Canada

More than anything, Matthew loves winter. So, therefore, he loves Christmas! Seeing you smile when you open your gifts, he looks forward to it all season. It seems like the only time of year when everyone else is either as miserable or as happy as he is, so it's his favourite holiday.

Cuddling up in front of the fireplace with hot cocoa, watching some old Christmas movie, its all he wants.

What he would get you: Comfy hoodies, comfy slippers too, hot cocoa packs, big stuff like a new PC or fridge or smth- decorations for your room, face masks, fidget toys, novelty Canadian keychains, figures of your favourite characters, festive sweets (like candy-canes and stuff.)

What he would want: Anything with a maple leaf (yes, he wants MORE of that,) boring stuff like socks, wood-working tools or like a new snow shovel, fairy lights, DVDs (because he still uses them? Why.) a new phone case, gift cards (HES BORING,) pre-packaged crafts, lotion and cologne that smells like pine

merry christmas if you celebrate! this'll probably be the last full thing I post until 2024, so thanks to all you readers for sticking around this year (: you have no idea how much it means to me. i love yall. and to all a good night or whatever santa said

J/H 3-23: Backstage Pass

This was a tricky one to re-write; the changes to "Trials of Michael Kelso" really start to factor in here, and that will lead into the season finale, but those changes meant that Hyde - a very guarded character - had to express certain things without saying them. It was a fun needle to thread, and I hope it worked out.

FF.Net AO3

---

SHOW TITLE INT. RADIO STATION - DAY WFPP control room, early afternoon. The ON AIR light over the booth door is on. DONNA is in the booth, unable to stop grinning like a dork as she reads off the FARM REPORT. DONNA: And in pork belly news, prices have risen to nearly 54 cents per pound. Mmm-hmm, bacon! ERIC enters the control room, waving when he sees Donna. She waves back. DONNA (cont’d): And I’ll be back at 3, 4, and 5 o’ clock with more updates. Until then, keep on farmin’! The ON AIR light shuts off. Donna exits the booth and crosses to a frowning Eric. DONNA (cont’d): Hey. ERIC: Donna, you’re doing the rest of the farm reports? I thought we were going to the movies. DONNA: Well, Janice called in sick, so... She shrugs as she trails off and goes to work sorting records. Eric’s frown deepens. ERIC: Okay, Donna, look. I think we need to talk. I think this job is really cutting into your Eric time. Donna stops and looks at Eric, half-amused, half-annoyed. DONNA: My “Eric time?” ERIC: And I’m very concerned about your diminishing Eric time, because it directly affects me, you know. (beat) Um, I’m Eric. The door opens, and MAX enters, tickets in hand. He crosses to Donna. MAX: Hey, thanks for staying late again, Donna. You know, you might just turn this into a full-time gig. ERIC: Hey, I’m her full-time gig. Max gives him an appraising look. MAX: Yeah. (to Donna) Here’s those tickets. Enjoy the show. He hands Donna the tickets and exits. ERIC: Tickets? DONNA: Yeah. I know I’ve been working a lot lately and I wanted to make it up to you, so I got Max to hook us up with Ted Nugent tickets for everybody. ERIC: The Motor City Madman? No way! Donna presents him with the tickets, and he takes them in awe. ERIC (cont’d): Oh, my disappointment is melting into a mixture of excitement and guilt. DONNA: Great. That’s what I was going for. She gives him a quick kiss, then gets back to work.

MAIN CREDITS BUMPER INT. FORMAN BASEMENT - DAY The next day. Eric and Donna sit on the couch, Eric’s arm around Donna’s shoulders. “Cat Scratch Fever” by TED NUGENT plays on the radio. HYDE comes down the stairs and takes a seat in his chair. HYDE: Hey. DONNA: Hey. Ready for the Nuge tonight? HYDE: Oh, yeah. A night of business and pleasure. He cackles as he opens up a magazine. DONNA: What’s the business? HYDE: Check it out: me and Fez, we’re gonna sell counterfeit T-shirts after the show. I figure with the original concert T’s going for 15 dollars, we sell ours for ten and turn a 50-dollar investment into 250 bucks. DONNA: How entrepreneurial of you. ERIC: You and Fez, huh? So you’re taking a break from corrupting cheerleaders to revisit the old standby of exploiting foreign exchange students? HYDE: Hey, I get Jackie mixed up in anything that involves clothing, next thing you know I’m out my last cent smuggling discount Jordache in from Madison. He turns slightly away, overly interested in his magazine. Eric and Donna share a look. ERIC: (to Hyde) Seriously, man. What’s going on with you and Jackie? HYDE: (warning) I keep telling everyone, nothing. ERIC: And yet you keep doing not-nothing. (adopts stern, “fatherly” voice) “Come, come, my wayward orphan – confess your feelings.” Hyde flips his magazine down in frustration. HYDE: Fine. You wanna know what’s going on? (beat) You know that episode of Wild Kingdom where the pilot fish hangs around the school of sharks? We can’t get rid of the pilot fish, so someone’s gotta show her how to be badass. Eric scoffs and Donna chuckles. DONNA: Well, if the shark had any other ideas, he might want to make a move, or else the pilot fish might just go back to the big, dumb Kelso fish. HYDE: (scoffs) Yeah, right. He goes back to his magazine. DONNA: Really, Hyde, I think he and Jackie are gonna get back together. HYDE: Trust me, that door’s closed. There’s no way Jackie’s going out with Kelso again. CUT TO: INT. CAR - DAY The inside of a Lincoln, parked in a random lot. KELSO sits in the driver’s seat, and JACKIE in the passenger’s seat. “Fins” by Jimmy Buffett plays on the car radio. KELSO: I want you to go out with me again. JACKIE: What? KELSO: Look, I know we were gonna stick to being just friends, but it’s been going so well that I think we should give us another try as a couple. Jackie looks skeptical. Undeterred, Kelso leans a little closer. KELSO (cont’d): We can start slow. Try one date, see how it goes. And it’ll be full of all the romantic magic you love. And I know magic. He waves his hands around, turning the flailing into the thumb removal magic trick. JACKIE: (giggling) Michael, I don’t know. KELSO: Come on, Jackie. Just one date. Please? He gives her a big puppy-dog face. JACKIE: (laughs) All right, Michael. You win. So, where are we going on our second first date? KELSO: The Ted Nugent concert. JACKIE: Michael, we’re all going to the Ted Nugent concert. KELSO: Hey, a date with all our friends there! Now how’s that for magic? He beams at Jackie, who shakes her head and smiles. CUT TO: INT. FORMAN KITCHEN - EVENING Later that day. With the kids out at the show, it’s poker night with the Pinciottis. RED, MIDGE, KITTY, and BOB all sit around the kitchen table with cards and drinks. BOB: You know – (points to Midge) Our anniversary’s coming up. Eighteen years. I can still remember the first time I saw Midgie. She was the tallest girl in chemistry class. MIDGE: And Bob was the shortest boy. But what he lacked in height, he made up for in shortness. The Pinciottis beam at each other. Red turns away to hide his eye roll. KITTY: Red, do you remember when we first met? RED: Like it was yesterday. He leans back, and we cut to: INT. DANCE HALL – NIGHT FLASHBACK. A USO dance is underway, with great swing music and plenty of punch. A YOUNG RED stands near the punch bowl with a few army officers and navy sailors, spiking the punch with rum. RED (v.o.): It was 1952 at a USO dance. Me and my buddies were blowing off steam. And suddenly, I saw her. Red looks up from the punch and sees a YOUNG KITTY, bathed in flattering light, across the dance floor. RED (v.o.): She was the most beautiful girl in the joint. A MARINE gets between them as he leers over Kitty. MARINE: Hiya, dame. Wanna shake a leg? KITTY: No, thanks. She turns away, but the marine spins her back around by the arm. MARINE: It wasn’t a question. KITTY: I think it was, mister. Red come up behind them and taps the marine on the shoulder. RED: (to army man) Mind if I cut in? MARINE: It’s none of your business, bell-bottom. He shoves Red back. RED: I think you could use a little punch, leatherneck. He slugs the marine good, taking him to the floor. Red stands tall and proud. His teeth actually shine in his smile. Kitty scowls at him, and when she talks, it’s the voice of PRESENT-DAY KITTY coming out. KITTY: Oh, you’re in big trouble, Red Forman. RED: Huh? CUT TO: INT. FORMAN KITCHEN – EVENING The flashback’s come crashing down. Kitty glares at Red across the table. KITTY: I said, you’re in big trouble, Red Forman. You’re thinking of some other girl. That’s not how we met at all! Red frowns in thought. RED: Oh. (beat) Oh! He looks over at his wife. She is one unhappy lady. RED (cont’d): Uh-oh. They continue to lock eyes across the table, while the Pinciottis try to be inconspicuous. CUT TO: INT. AUDITORIUM – NIGHT Minutes before the concert, a packed house. The gang take up an entire row of seats in the balcony: Hyde, FEZ, Donna, Eric, Jackie, and Kelso. Fez has a large cardboard box balanced in his lap. FEZ: (to Donna and Eric) Hey, you guys want to see our counterfeit T-shirts? He reaches into the box and lifts up a black T-shirt with “Tad Nugent” written across the top. Fez smiles, but Hyde stirs; it’s the first time he’s seen the shirts. HYDE: Fez, it’s Ted Nugent. FEZ: Uh-huh. Tad Nugent. HYDE: No, man. I’m saying “Ted.” FEZ: I’m saying “Tad” too. HYDE: No, you’re not. It says “Tad.” FEZ: I know it says “Tad.” I’m the one who put it on there. I don’t know why we’re fighting. What’s the problem here? HYDE: Because the shirt says “Tad!” FEZ: Exactly! HYDE: But the “A” should be an “E.” FEZ: Well, that’s not how you spell “Tad.” HYDE: No. That’s how you spell “Ted.” It finally clicks. Fez gains a million-mile stare as he slowly replaces the shirt in the box. FEZ: Oh... But there’s no time to dwell on that. The lights dim and the crowd – including the gang – rise to their feet and erupt into cheers as the concert begins. BUMPER INT. FORMAN LIVING ROOM - NIGHT Red sits on the couch, deep in thought. Unfortunately, Bob and Midge are sat right next to him, staring and interrupting those thoughts. RED: You know, it’s hard enough trying to remember this without you two staring at me. BOB: Hey, I could hypnotize you. MIDGE: I know! You could retrace your steps. What did you have for breakfast? Red is spared having to answer that by Kitty’s march through the living room, an empty wine glass in hand. Red stands. RED: Oh, hi, Kitty. Uh... you know, (laughs) I was just thinking about how much I love you - KITTY: So you remember yet? RED: Yes! (beat) No. Kitty sets he glass down and puts her hands on her hips. KITTY: It was November 17, 1953, at a USO dance. I remember because it was the most important moment of my life! RED: (beat) Really, Kitty? Because in November 1953, I was in Korea. (sits) So I’m pretty sure that you were talking to someone else. Kitty tries gamely to maintain surety. KITTY: Are you sure? Maybe – maybe you came home for the weekend. Red fixes her with a hard stare. RED: Not from Korea. KITTY: Oh, great. Now, neither one of us knows how we met. Well, you better get your thinking cap on, mister! She retrieves her wine glass and disappears into the kitchen as Red lets out a long sigh. BUMPER INT. AUDITORIUM – NIGHT We rejoin the concert just as it ends and spares the accountants any licensing concerns. Everyone is still on their feet, making noise. EMCEE (v.o.) Thank you, Wisconsin! Good night! In a long pan, the gang all applaud and (ad-lib) remark on the incredible show they’ve just seen. We end on Jackie and Kelso turning in toward each other. JACKIE: God, Michael, this was the most magical night! KELSO: You know, during the concert, I rewrote some of Ted Nugent’s songs with your name in it. Okay, which one do you like better: “Cat Scratch Jackie” or “Jackie Scratch Fever?” JACKIE: I love them both! They both laugh with joy and hurry up the aisle, hand in hand. Hyde looks after them. His shades can’t hide his shock. Fez waves a hand in front of Hyde’s eyes. FEZ: Hyde? Hello? We have crap to sell? He elbows his way past Hyde and heads up on the other end of the row. Hyde follows slowly, as if in a trance. Donna and Eric remain by the seats, taking in the ambience. ERIC: What do you wanna do now? DONNA: Uh... oh! We can go around back and watch the tour buses from behind the chain-link fence. ERIC: Great idea! They start to exit, but Max comes down the aisle and joins them in their row. He has a backstage pass around his neck. MAX: Hiya, kids. Enjoy the show? ERIC: Are you kidding? I’m deaf! Max smiles and nods. ERIC: You can say that again, Max! Max sits down. MAX: Well, you know, I’m starting to come down... I mean, I’m getting tired. (to Donna) Uh, why don’t you take this? He removes his backstage pass and hands it to Donna. She and Eric look at it as if it were the Holy Grail (or something.) DONNA: Oh, my God... a backstage pass... ERIC: Oh, yeah! (beat) Oh, too bad there’s only one, huh? DONNA: I’ll be back in five minutes, I swear. ERIC: You’re going? DONNA: Well, don’t you want me to? ERIC: (beat) Of course I do! That’s why I said, “oh, you’re going! Yay!” DONNA: You’re the best! She gives him a kiss and rushes off. ERIC: (to Donna’s wake) Yeah, that’s... (to Max) Yeah, that’s good. That’s nice for her. MAX: You’ll never see her again. That’s how I lost my first wife. Damn you, Donny Osmond! He shakes his head violently as Eric looks down at the stage, troubled. FADE TO BLACK COMMERCIAL BUMPER EXT. AUDITORIUM - NIGHT Just outside the exit. The concert may be over, but people aren’t in a hurry to leave. At the base of the stairs, Hyde and Fez try to hawk their counterfeit merchandise. Shockingly, no one’s going for the “Tad” T’s. Fez is at least giving it the ol’ college try; Hyde seems distracted. FEZ: T-shirts! Get your crappy, misspelled T-shirts! Can’t enjoy the after-party without your crappy, misspelled T-shirts! HYDE: (to Fez) I rue the day I took you under my wing, my foreign friend. I should’ve gone with Jackie on this. Fez looks over at Hyde and pouts. FEZ: Oh, yes... Jackie, who kicked Fort Anderson’s ass. Jackie, so good at graffiti. Jackie, with the bobby pins for picking locks. Well, I am not your perfect student Jackie, Hyde! She is getting back together with Kelso, so you will have to settle for me! He stomps his foot and turns away. Behind his shades, Hyde rolls his eyes. HYDE: They’re not back together, all right? Jackie’s learned enough now that she’s not gonna go back to a buffoon like Kelso. Speak of the devil: Kelso and Jackie come up behind Hyde, happy as clams. At least, they are until Jackie notices a puddle of vomit in front of them. JACKIE: Eww! Michael, someone blew chunks. Without missing a beat, Kelso takes the Tad T from Fez, spreads it out over the vomit, and offers his arm to Jackie. KELSO: May I escort you across the vomit, my lady? Jackie smiles and links arms with him. JACKIE: Why thank you, good sir. Heads held high, they walk across the T-shirt and proceed on their way. Hyde glares after them. Fez turns to Hyde, rather smug. FEZ: So... the buffoon makes his move. And she will go back to him. And then who will you have? No one – but Fez. He retrieves another T-shirt from the box and holds it up for passersby to see. FEZ: Todd Nugent! Get your Todd Nugent T-shirts! HYDE: Fez? He beckons Fez closer, and Fez leans in. HYDE (cont’d): IT’S TED! TWO POLICEMEN appear behind Fez. POLICEMAN: Is there a problem here? Hyde and Fez look at the cops, look at each other, and break for it, leaving the T-shirts behind. The cops take off after them. CUT TO: INT. BACKSTAGE – NIGHT The life of a rock star. TED NUGENT and his band kick back after their show, a bevy of beautiful women hanging on each of them. Amps and guitars rest against the walls and furniture. Into this den of cool steps Donna, jaw hanging open. Ted notices her first. TED: Hey, who ordered the redhead? Two of the band raise their hands. DONNA: (to Ted) Oh, my God, you’re looking at me. (to the band) Ted Nugent is looking at me. (to Ted) Stop looking at me! I’m Donna. I am, like, your biggest fan. She offers her hand, and Ted takes it. TED: Hi, Donna. Meet the other groupies. (pointing each one out) This is Blonde Girl, the other Blonde Girl, Tall Girl, and the Tall Blonde Girl. DONNA: Well, actually, I’m not a groupie. I mean, I love you, but I work at a rock radio station – WFPP, “The Sound!” I do the farm report. It’s like, a huge day for pork bellies. (beat) You don’t care. Sorry. Ted stands and crosses to Donna. TED: Oh, you work for a radio station? You wanna do an interview or somethin’? DONNA: Oh, my God. An interview would be amazing. Do you have, um, a piece of paper and one of those, uh... TED: Pens. DONNA: Pens. Exactly! One of the band hands Donna a notepad and pen. DONNA: You are the best. (to Ted) Okay, first question... um... uh... oh, my God, why are you so great? BUMPER INT. AUDITORIUM - NIGHT Eric and Max are still up in the balcony, both sitting, Max still coming down. A JANITOR stands impatiently to their left with a mop and bucket. ERIC: It’s not just tonight, you know. Yeah, she’s been blowing me off more and more. And she thinks I’ll take it, but I won’t. Uh-uh. MAX: Yeah, that’s how it starts. You say you won’t take it; you say you’ll be firm. And then the Mormon smoothie comes to town... A haunted look comes to Max’s eye, enough to give Eric a chill. The janitor, on the other hand, is unfazed. JANITOR: Can you two lift your feet please? Somewhat grudgingly, Eric lifts his feet. Max doesn’t; he’s so lost in memories and his trip, he probably didn’t hear. Eric manages, awkwardly, to pull Max’s legs up as the janitor passes through. CUT TO: INT. BACKSTAGE - NIGHT Some time later. Donna has taken Ted’s chair, while the Nuge plays a section of “Strangehold” on his guitar. As he finishes, Donna leaps up, applauding. When she realizes she’s the only one reacting, she’s flummoxed. DONNA: What is wrong with you people? Come on! That was great! What, are you on dope? They all stare back her with glazed expressions. DONNA: Oh. (to Ted) Well, I better go. My boyfriend’s waiting. Thank you so much for the interview, Ted. They shake hands again. TED: You’re very welcome. You wanna stick around? I’ll let you touch the guitar. DONNA: Really? All right! (beat) Wait, you mean your guitar guitar, right? TED: Yeah. DONNA: All right! She reaches out and strokes his guitar. CUT TO: EXT. AUDITORIUM - NIGHT Far down the auditorium wall, with restroom doors. Hyde, coming down from a full run, ducks behind a tree and leans back against the wall to catch his breath. Jackie and Kelso stroll up the sidewalk, their arms still linked. Jackie has a small bag of popcorn. They don’t see Hyde, but he sees them. JACKIE: Michael, I have to say, this really has been a magically romantic day. They look at each other and smile. As they reach the restroom doors, Kelso stops. He takes his arm back, holds up a finger for “one sec,” and steps inside. Jackie sighs contentedly and looks out at the night. Hyde steps out from behind the tree. Jackie yelps and jumps back, her popcorn flying everywhere. She sees it’s Hyde and relaxes, though she still clutches at her chest. JACKIE: Steven, you scared me. HYDE: (points to restroom) What’s going on with you and Kelso? JACKIE: Oh. Well... She giggles. Coyly, she steps in toward Steven. JACKIE (cont’d): Steven, should I give Michael a second chance? I mean, Donna says “no,” and I didn’t think I wanted to be more than friends, but he really has changed. He’s so different. And we’re different together. I felt that tonight. She chuckles to herself and kicks at the sidewalk. JACKIE (cont’d): I dunno. What do you think? Hyde regards her coolly. HYDE: If that’s your call, make the play. Jackie beams and starts to pace with joy. HYDE (cont’d): Yeah, I mean, you made the same call after he burned your house, and that worked out, right? Jackie stops pacing, looks to Hyde, confused. HYDE (cont’d): Oh, and when he first got his van, and you thought that was a step toward maturity, then he used it for nailin’ Laurie. Real good call there. JACKIE: What are you saying? HYDE: Oh, are you not getting it? Maybe it’d help if I waved around some pom-poms and used a cheer with all one-syllable words. Jackie takes a step back; it’s been a long time since she’s seen Hyde like this. JACKIE: Steven, you’re being rude. HYDE: Sorry. It’s my nature to be rude to stupid crap. JACKIE: (hurt) Steven! HYDE: What, I’m wrong? When Kelso burns you over and over, tells you he’s changed, and because he kisses your ass and buys you crap, you fall for it every time? He gives her a chance to retort; she can’t. HYDE (cont’d): I had you figured right in the first place, but I thought maybe you weren’t that square and shallow, so I gave you a shot. Turns out you haven’t learned a thing from me. He starts to walk away. JACKIE: Steven, what are you talking about? What was I supposed to learn? Hyde stops and whirls around. HYDE: To think! Maybe then you’d see life ain’t one of your Nancy Drew, Disney World, unicorn fantasies. That second chances are for losers who can’t figure out that people don’t change, and if they screw you once, they screw you every time. He advances on her as he raves. Jackie doesn’t back up. JACKIE: That’s not true! People do change! You’ve changed! At least, I thought you had, from when you were such a jerk when we first met. But I know Michael has, because I have thought about this, a lot, and I didn’t just believe that things were different this time. And by the way, Steven? I’m the one who was “screwed” and hurt and betrayed. What would a scruffy orphan know about that? Hyde’s face doesn’t change, but Jackie knows immediately she’s gone too far. Finally, she takes a step back, her hands over her mouth. JACKIE (cont’d): Steven, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean - HYDE: (cold) You wanna know what I think? I think you can marry that moron for all I care. Next time you get burned, find someone else to cry to. He walks away. Jackie doesn’t follow him, not even with her eyes. She just stares ahead at the ground, trying not to cry. Kelso comes out of the bathroom, all smiles. He moseys up behind Jackie and puts a hand on her shoulder. KELSO: Hey there. So, the concession stand’s still open, and I think they were selling cherry slurpees. Jackie looks up at him, eyes shining with tears. She pulls away from his hold and stomps off. Kelso’s jaw drops. KELSO (cont’d): Okay, we’ll get watermelon! That doesn’t bring her back. Kelso throws up his hands and runs after her. Further up the sidewalk, Hyde stands alone. He rips his sunglasses off, clenching them tight in his fist as he kicks at the auditorium wall. The policemen come up the way Jackie and Kelso left, each of them holding Fez by an arm between them. Fez is handcuffed. FEZ: (to Hyde) “Sell some T-shirts,” you said. “No risk,” you said. I’m going to jail, you son of a bitch! They all pass by. Hyde looks after Jackie and Kelso briefly, then pops his shades back on and goes after Fez. CUT TO: INT. FORMAN LIVING ROOM – NIGHT The Pinciottis have gone. Kitty sits on the couch, flipping through an old photo album. Red enters from the kitchen with two small drinks. KITTY: (not looking up) Oh, Red, it’s killing me that I can’t remember. RED: Huh? Oh, yeah, yeah, me too. (sits next to her) But I’ll tell you one thing I remember: I remember that you loved Manhattans. He hands her one of the drinks. KITTY: Oh, that’s right. That’s what I used to drink. (laughs) Oh, I haven’t had a Manhattan in twenty years. She and Red clink glasses and have a sip. It’s a GOOD Manhattan. KITTY (cont’d): Oh, boy, that takes me back. Oh. Oh... The lightbulb goes off in her head. We cut to: INT. DANCE HALL – NIGHT FLASHBACK. Young Kitty is sat at a table with A FRIEND, a row of glasses in front of her. She downs one Manhattan and accepts another from the WAITER. KITTY: (to waiter) Keep ‘em coming. (to friend) Oh, my. I’m as loose as a goose. (laughs) Back by the punch bowl, young Red and HIS FRIEND stand with shot glasses in hand. RED: Okay, let’s do it. They clink glasses, down their shots, set the glasses down, and drop their pants. On their boxers are written the words “HELLO LADIES.” Kitty, her back to them, doesn’t see the mooning. She stands up as well as she can, all giggles. KITTY: Upsy-daisy. I need to use the ladies’ - She turns to head for the restroom but collides with Red’s ass and falls down on hers. It doesn’t damper her mood any; she falls into a fresh round of laughter. Red turns to look at her, hiking his pants back up as he does so. RED: You all right? KITTY: I bumped into your butt and fell down! (laughs) RED: Sorry. My pants were... He helps her to her feet, and they look at each other – really look at each other. Red’s grip turns into a handshake. RED (cont’d): I’m Red Forman. KITTY: How do you do, Red Forman? I’m Kitty Sigurdson. CUT TO: INT. FORMAN LIVING ROOM – NIGHT The present. Neither Red nor Kitty can believe it. RED: You bumped into my butt and fell down? And that’s how we met? KITTY: I’m afraid so. RED: (beat) Well, what do you say, if the kids ever ask, we go with the “I punched out a marine” story. KITTY: And I wasn’t drinking, I was reading to the blind. RED: Sounds good. They clink glasses, take a sip, and look at the album. CUT TO: EXT. PARKING LOT – NIGHT The auditorium lot. The concert crowds have finally dispersed; the Vista Cruiser is alone in the lot. Eric sits on the front of the car, listening to the radio through the cracked windows. Donna comes around the corner. She races to Eric when she sees him, and he slides off the car. DONNA: Oh, my God, Eric, I have so much to tell you! I actually met Ted Nugent, and I got an interview, and I know I said I’d be right back, but – it was so exciting! ERIC: Oh, yeah. My night too. I met the janitor, and I got to hear your boss talk about the sexual magnetism of Donny Osmond. Rock n’ roll! His tone isn’t lost on Donna. DONNA: Eric, you’re mad at me for going backstage to meet Ted Nugent? ERIC: No, no. I’m mad at you because you ditched me. DONNA: I didn’t ditch you. This was Ted Nugent! This was a huge opportunity for me. So, come Monday, I don’t have to just talk about the farm report. I can talk about the interview, like an interviewer. ERIC: Well, you know what, Donna? All I can say is that my mom never would have bailed on my dad like that. DONNA: Yeah, I know. But they’re married. ERIC: (beat) Okay. Okay, forget it. Let’s just forget it. You’re sorry – everything’s fine. DONNA: I never said I was sorry. ERIC: But... you are, right? DONNA: I shouldn’t have to be. Eric has no reply. He’s spared having to make one by Hyde and Fez coming around the corner, Hyde’s arm around Fez’s shoulders. FEZ: I am free! At last, I am free! They were going to charge me with selling counterfeit merchandise, but Hyde convinced them that since Ted Nugent was misspelled, it wasn’t really counterfeit, it was just stupid. My ignorance of American youth culture finally pays off. Hyde notices Donna’s pass. HYDE: Donna, man, did you get to meet the Nuge? DONNA: Yeah, it was awesome! I was right there with him! The Nuge! The flash of excitement vanishes when Donna turns back to Eric. DONNA (cont’d): So can we go now? Jackie and Kelso come up from the other direction. Jackie has her arms folded and her head down, and Kelso is completely lost. KELSO: Well, damn, Jackie, just tell me where the magic went! They stop when they see the rest of the gang. Jackie glares at Hyde, who glares back. Eric and Donna stare each other down. Fez and Kelso shift uncomfortably. The driver’s side back door opens on the Vista Cruiser. Max sticks his head out. He’s still not fully down. MAX: Hey, kids? I can’t find my car. He looks up at them pleadingly. They all start to look in different directions for his car. FADE TO BLACK CREDITS EXT. AUDITORIUM - NIGHT Just outside the exit. The box of Tad Nugent T-shirts is right where Hyde and Fez left it. Ted Nugent himself walks up the sidewalk, dressed down from the show. He spies the box and takes a look inside. He holds one of the shirts up to his chest; it seems like a good fit. Ted shrugs, tosses the shirt over his shoulder, picks up the box, and carries on. END.

belle I swear this is insane. I’m from uruguay and of course we can’t access to pre sale because we can’t sign up with the bank being foreigners. everything is just a mess I hope we all get tickets

IT IS. IT IS UNFAIR. I’m so mad! I have so many friends from Uruguay and Argentina that wont be attending because they cant afford the full price and even if they’re students they dont get the student discount. This is THE ONLY LatAm concert and every LatAm fan should be considered. They should have at least partner up w an international bank. We WILL get tickets! We will, we have to. Good luck babe 💖💖💖 And please tell me if you need help w the t4f website

How to enter a ticket lottery via Yahoo

Hi! This is pretty much the same as the fanclub lottery but the first steps are a different. Also a reminder, all lottery tickets are given out at random, you cannot choose your seat.

Requirements: Japanese address and phone number

View a similar tutorial here for entering a fanclub lottery.

Step 1. Go to the special website and select your desired dates.

When you reach the main lottery page you will see this. Scroll down and make your choices for concerts you want to go to.

The dates will be listed in chronological order. For CBX, I want to go to Yokohama Arena on 5/13. Now once you select that you will see a list of seat options.

全席指定: All seats

ステージサイド: Stage side

立見: Standing

btw if you are wondering what “stage side” is, it’s basically a seat on the side of the stage. View of the stage and/or screens may be obstructed. Here is a photo of what a stage side seat may look like. These seats are typically undesirable because you can’t properly watch the performance although sometimes these seats are sold at a discount. For CBX however, it seems there is no discount.

So once you selected your desired date/seat for your 1st day, you will see a section that looks like this. 第２希望 mens “second choice” and you can then select another date you want. Click 選択する to open up the same drop-down menu with all the concerts.

Here you can select a different date you would like tickets for.

Once you have made all your selections, press 次へ to continue.

Step 2. Register with your YAHOO Japan ID.

Click on the yellow button to login with your Yahoo Japan ID. If you do not have a Yahoo Japan ID you can make one using this tutorial.

You will be redirected to the Yahoo website where you will need to input your Yahoo Japan ID. Do that and press 次へ. Then input your password and press 次へ once again.

When you see this terms and conditions page, press 同意してはじめる to accept and continue.

You will then be asked to make a Yahoo ticket account. Press the red button to continue.

You will see this page. Input the email address you want to use, this can be your Yahoo Japan email or any other email. You will need to be able to access this email to claim your tickets! Once that is done, check the box under it to accept the terms and conditions and then press the red button to continue.

Check your email for an email from Yahoo tickets and click the link which will bring you to the next page.

Now you will need to input some personal data.

氏名: Name, you can write this in English. Make sure to write family name first so if your name is Baekhyun Byun write it as Byun Baekhyun.

氏名フリガナ: Name in Katakana. Write your name using Japanese katakana. If you don’t know how to do this, ask a friend or use a katakana generator online.

電話番号 or 携帯電話番号: Phone number/Cell phone number. Input your number here.

性別: Sex. 男性 is man and 女性 is woman.

生年月日; Birthday. Year, Month, Day, select from the drop down menus.

郵便番号: Postal Code/ZIP Code. Put in your ZIP code and press 住所検索 and it’ll automatically fill in your prefecture, ward, and perhaps your town.

If you hit the blue button up above you should only need to fill out the bottom two sections of this. 番地 is your house number so maybe it will be 1-23-4 or 23-5 and then the field under that is for your apartment/building number. so maybe it’s “Apartment Place Room #222″.

Next create a password for your account and type it once and then a second time for confirmation. Then input the captcha.

And lastly you will come to a confirmation page. If everything looks good you can press the red button that says “登録する”.

Step 3. Going back to the main page. So head back to the main lottery page. I KNOW WE NEED TO DO THIS ALL OVER AGAIN.

Anyway you know the deal, select the concerts you want to go to, pretty much repeat step 1.

Once you login with your Yahoo ID you will be able to proceed to the payment page!

First you will need to select a ticket pickup method. For CBX’s lottery you can only pick up at “セブンイレブン (7/11)” or “ファミリーマート (Family Mart)”. These are Japanese convenience stores and you must be in Japan to pick up your tickets. You can pick up your tickets 2 weeks before the concert, they willl not be mailed to you so you must go and pick them up. You can pick them up any time 2 weeks before the concert.

Next is the payment method. for this concert you can pay via Japanese credit card, Japanese convenience store, or Japanese atm. There are no options for payments overseas, foreign credit card will not work. For foreigners who do not have a Japanese credit card or bank account, you can use “コンビニ (convenience store)” payment. It is the middle option so select that.

Remember, you need to pay at a Japanese convenience store. Don’t worry though, you can ask a friend or family member to make the payment for you if you send them the payment number.

Once that is done, scroll to the bottom and it 次へ to continue.

You will then be asked “How many concerts did you apply for?” So for me i only applied to go 1 day so I wrote “1″, but if you applied for more type in whatever number you applied for. Remember this is the amount of concerts, NOT tickets. So if you applied for 3 tickets on day 1 and 4 tickets on day 2, you are only applying for 2 days so write 2!

You will see a confirmation page so make sure all the information is correct. If it looks good enter the captcha and then click the red button to finish your application.

DONE! Now just wait for results!

Getting results

Once you have entered the lottery you will get the results about 2 weeks later. Make sure to check the dates for the “当落確認・支払期間 (Results and payment period)”. This period will typically be very short, as little as 2 days!

Losing If you lose you will receive an email like this:

残念ながらチケットのご用意ができませんでした。

Unfortunately we cannot issue you tickets at this time.

Look for the words “残念ながら (unfortunately)” or “ご用意ができませんでした (cannot issue/could not issue)”. This means that you have failed the lottery and cannot purchase the tickets. You do not have to do anything else.

Winning If you win you will receive an email like this:

ご当選となりましたのでお知らせいたします。

We are here to tell you that you have been selected as a winner.

After this you can scroll down until you see the words “支払方法 (payment method)”. This is where the information for how you will pay will be displayed. Remember you chose this method when you entered the lottery. If you chose to pay by 7/11 you will have a “払込票番号 (payment transfer number)”. Or if there is another way you chose to pay information will be shown there.

Congrats if you won!

Budget in Istanbul

Overall, to set a budget for a trip to a city you could consider the basic necessities like accomadation, transportation, water, average meals, and of course -THE MUST- beer/cocktails. Of course all of these things could vary depending on the level of luxury you want.

Generally, eating out and drinking in İstanbul is not the cheapest. But considering you are here with a foreign currency, and that the Euro is almost 3TL, and the dollar is above 2TL, you might start throwing your money around like Rihanna.

Lets go over some prices to give you a general idea:

*Water: 0.50-1.50TL at supermarkets , 3TL-5TL at restaurants

*Beer: around 4TL at supermarkets, 8-15TL at restaurants

*Coffee: around 8TL at Starbucks, and most cafes and restaurants

*Average meal: Kebabs anywhere from 10TL to 30TL, a good steak (filet, rib eye etc) 40-60TL

*Wine: 20-30TL by glass, 100-3492384234TL by bottle

*Cigarettes: 6-10TL a pack

Is there a City Pass?

There is a Museum Pass, which will allow you free entrance to most historical sights at the Old Town area. There are 2 options for the museum pass:

*3 Day Pass- 85 TL

*5 Day Pass –115 TL. (This pass will give you free entrance to additional sights)

You can purchase this card online or at the following sale points: Hagia Sophia, İstanbul Mosaic Museum, Topkapı Palace Museum, İstanbul Arcehological Museum, Chora Museum, Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts. There are also other advantages and discounts the museum pass will give you.

What are the best areas to stay?

Tourists mostly prefer to stay in the Old City because most of the main historical sights are within this area. But we would personally suggest for you to stay in Taksim area. Now you might think “why would I stay in the middle of where the clashes and action is happening?”. Because it is still the heart of the city, and the liveliest place in İstanbul.

There are lots of restaurants, cafes, shopping, bars and clubs, thus one of the most fun areas to stay in İstanbul. There are several hotels/hostels in this area that are in different price ranges. Keep in mind, if a nice sea view is one of your specifications while finding accomodation, there are hotels here which have sea view.

While looking up hotels, you might come across familiar names like the Sheraton which might deceive you because they could be outside of the city center area, and more in the finance/business areas (Such as Levent and Maslak) . Make sure to look at a map and figure out which location you would like to be closest to.

What are some useful websites to look at before coming to Istanbul?

www.tripadvisor.com (I don’t think I need to explain this one)

http://www.istanbul-ulasim.com.tr/en (For detailed information on the public transportation)

http://www.istanbulmodern.org/en (It is a contemporary art museum, you can check this website for current exhibitions. Hint hint: it also has a very nice cafe/restaurant with an amazing bosphorus view)

http://www.muzekart.com/en/museum-pass (for information on the museum pass)

http://www.biletix.com (Turkish version of ticket master, check for current events,concerts and festival before your arrival)

Planning your short weekend trip from delhi to jaipur??

I will be putting together all the information needed to plan that spontaneous trip to jaipur with friends, family and loved ones.

When to visit jaipur

Although the beauty of the place is not going to change in any season, avoid travelling during summer, if you would not like to return like a baked pie.

(Admiring beauty with taking care of your own is a must) so unsurprisingly the best season to visit Jaipur is during the winter months, from early November through to February and this is the height of the tourist season. As most places require exploring palaces and outdoor structures, winter is the season i’ll suggest.

PS: Choice is yours, don’t forget i warned you about the heat.

Places to visit

There’s a lot of beautiful things to see in jaipur. Every place mentioned below has its own history and royalness.

Hawa Mahal

Jantar Mantar

Jal Mahal

Albert Hall

Amer Palace

Sisod. Rani Ka Bagh

Vidhadhar Bagh

Nahargarh

Patrika Gate

Chowki Dhani

You can get a combined ticket for all the places from hawa mahal counter. This ticket will be valid for 2 days (9am to 6pm).

HAWA MAHAL

Jaipur’s most-distinctive landmark, the Hawa Mahal is an extraordinary pink-painted, delicately honeycombed hive that rises a dizzying five storeys. It was constructed in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh to enable ladies of the royal household to watch the life and processions of the city. The top offers stunning views over Jantar Mantar and the City Palace in one direction and over Sireh Deori Bazaar in the other.

There’s a small museum (open Saturday to Thursday), with miniature paintings and some rich relics, such as ceremonial armour, which help evoke the royal past.Claustrophobes should be aware that the narrow corridors can sometimes get extremely cramped and crowded inside the Hawa Mahal.Entrance is from the back of the complex. To get here, return to the intersection on your left as you face the Hawa Mahal, turn right and then take the first right again through an archway. Shopkeepers can show you another way – past their shops!

Jantar Mantar

Best time to visit Jantar Mantar: The best time of the day to visit Jantar Mantar in Jaipur is noon. During mid-day, the Sun is vertically above and it is easy to understand the process of interpretation of the readings of each instrument.

Jantar Mantar Jaipur timings: Jantar Mantar in Jaipur remains open from 9:00 am to 4: 30 pm, on all seven days of the week. Generally, one can see the whole of Jantar Mantar in 30 to 45 minutes of time.

Jaipur’s cultural beauty is well expressed in architecture and art forms. One of the best ways to enjoy the culture is museum. The best of all museums is Albert Hall Museum. This museum provides exclusive collection of artifacts, objects and other art forms.

History of Albert Hall Museum

The building of Albert Hall Museum was built in 1876 as a concert hall. The museum gets its name from the Victoria and Albert Museum of London, because of the similarity of architecture. The foundation for the building started in 1876, when Prince of Wales visited Jaipur. When the building was constructed, the royals and government did not have any idea about usage of the building. It was initially used as Town Hall in 1880. Later, the King of Jaipur, Maharaja Sawai Madho Singh II suggested to use it as a museum for Industrial Arts. Later, the hall was used for displaying masterpieces of local artisans.

In 1881, the museum was at its prime beauty and people from across the country visited this museum to buy or enjoy handicrafts, artwork and other masterpieces. However, the building was under construction until 1887. Later, the museum started to showcase artifacts and ancient artworks along with budding artist’s masterpieces.

Amer Palace

Nostalgic Amber Fort, near Jaipur in Rajasthan, is one of the most well-known and most-visited forts in India. Not surprisingly, it features prominently on the list of Jaipur’s top attractions. Here’s what you need to know to plan your trip.

History

Amber was once the capital of princely Jaipur state, and the fort the residence of its Rajput rulers. Maharaja Man Singh I, who led Mughal Emperor Akbar’s army, commenced its construction in 1592 on the remains of an 11th-century fort. Successive rulers added to Amber Fort before moving the capital to Jaipur in 1727. The fort was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2013, as part of a group of six hill forts in Rajasthan. Its architecture is a noteworthy fusion of Rajput (Hindu) and Mughal (Islamic) styles.

Embellished with delicate carvings and stonework, the Nahargarh Fort is an impregnable structure, that together with its two neighbouring forts – Amer and Jaigarh, once stood as the strong defence of Jaipur city.

10 Things to do in Marrakech on a Budget

If you think that that you simply got to spend a fortune to enjoy Marrakech, think again! Sure there are many places where you'll drop many euros an evening for an area and eat extravagant “Moroccan” meals, but you certainly don’t have to! With dozens of flights from Europe arriving everyday Marrakech may be a cheap holiday and cheap weekend break. Once you’ve got your flight and hotel squared away don’t worry about breaking the bank, instead save your money while still enjoying all the town has got to offer once you visit Marrakech.

Visit the choice Gardens Sure, the Majorelle Gardens are beautiful but they also charge an admission of 50+ dirham per person counting on the choices you select. it's going to not be tons of cash, but if you’re on a budget every dirham counts. Instead, take a rehearse the opposite two gardens centrally located near the medina. this is often one among the free things to try to to in Marrakech. Arset Moulay Abdeslam Cyber Garden or Kotoubia Gardens are on the brink of the medina and wonderful. within the Cyber Garden, you'll devour free wi-fi (note the web are often spotty) to see emails or post a Facebook update and find a clean comfort station. The Koutoubia Gardens also are an excellent spot to steer and capture some pictures of the towering minaret with fauna and flora around.

Combined admission to Musee de Marrakech, Almoravid Koubba, and Ben Youssef Madrassa

Visit the Musee de Marrakech first and buy a combined ticket for 60 dirhams which will offer you access to the three sites. If you don’t speak French the Marrakech Museum could also be a touch of a challenge but you'll still observe the various traditional items on display. The Almoravid Kubba is that the only piece of Almoravid architecture remaining in Marrakech (dating from the 1100s) and is a bit of history. Lastly Ben Youssef Madrassa -my favorite of the three. This once served as a faculty (madrassa means school) and attendees lived upstairs. There isn’t much remaining apart from the walls but the architecture and artisan work is gorgeous.

(Worth noting the Ben Youssef Madrassa is closed for renovations through 2019 making this combined ticket not as beneficial until afterward)

Eat on the road While reluctant travelers might not desire eating street food for the intrepid it is often not only a delicious meal but an excellent thanks to economizing. Moroccans’ don’t eat Moroccan food in restaurants – they eat it reception. So if you’re sitting down and paying for a 100 dirham tajine know that you’re getting straight-up tourist fare.

If however, you wander into a little shop serving roast chickens, Harira soup, or skillet-fried Msemmen you’re eating sort of a Moroccan – which means eating on a Moroccan budget too. For breakfast, a cup of tea and Sfinge (doughnuts) will set you back 5-10 dirham (about 1 euro), while a dinner of grilled chicken skewers with Moroccan salads and bread may cost 20-30 dirham (2-3 euros). You’ll find a spread of offerings in the least times of the day.

Free Cultural Performances

Cafe Clock is comparatively new in town but they need some amazing offerings, alongside great food. just like the Cafe Clock Facebook page to stay up so far with all of the items that are happening but make certain to drop by on Thursdays for traditional Moroccan storytelling (in English and Arabic) and Sunday nights for his or her concerts. Treat yourself to a cup of tea or one among their milkshakes with homemade ice cream!

Watch Craftsmen at Work

The souks aren’t only for shopping. The further you walk back the more frequently you’ll see workshops and not just shopfronts. Men are often seen piecing together leather shoes or carving wooden implements. Any number of other artisans are going to be busy too. If you are doing want to require an image, make certain to ask first and offer some change as a polite many thanks (5-10 dirham is acceptable).

Take an area Hammam

There is a good sort of hammams in Marrakech; from traditional neighborhood hammams to ultra-fancy spas like hammams and everything in between. If you would like to experience a hammam but are trying to find an inexpensive hammam in Marrakech, then choose the local bath. Entrance is 10-20 dirham but if you’d sort of a full scrub by an attendant also the soap if you haven’t purchased elsewhere it'll cost about 50 dirhams. Compare this to 200-500 dirham that you simply can spend during a mid-range hammam. the likelihood is that you’ll get a far better scrub with the cheaper option anyway!

Low Entry Fee Attractions

To visit the Badi Palace, Bahia Palace, or Saadian Tombs will cost just 10 dirhams each. get on the lookout there'll be people milling about offering to offer you a guided tour but you'll always decline. this may economize and you'll find much information before time in guidebooks and online.

Walk in the Mellah

The Mellah is that the old Jewish quarter of Marrakech. Here you’ll see a distinctively different sort of architecture. See if you'll find the synagogue (no longer operational) and make certain to go to the spice quarter across from the Gold Souk. A walk down the streets here causes you to feel almost like you’re during a completely different setting.

Free Exhibitions A great resource for free of charge exhibitions is to follow the local foreign language schools. There are two English centers, the French Institute, a Spanish Institute, and a German center in Marrakech – and possibly other languages also. These centers often host talks, movies, and performances within the language that's taught there and sometimes on topics concerning Morocco. Most of the time they're free and hospitable to the general public.

Sit during a rooftop cafe overlooking Djem al Fna

For the worth of a drink, you'll sit above the square and watch the action. Many rooftop terraces require you to shop for something, but even a soda or bottle of water will suffice. Enjoy the music below, people watch, read a book, whatever you’d wish to do these are an excellent spot to relax and take in the Marrakech vibe. If you set about 45 minutes before sunset you’ll be more likely to urge a seat overlooking the square as most of the people come just before this point and seats are at a premium.

A few more cost-saving tips; take the bus from the airport to Djem al Fna. It’s one of the nicer city buses and is never full. Cost is 30dh If you would like to require a taxi walk outside of the airport grounds to the most street. it'll cut the value of the cab fare a minimum of in half. Visit within the low season – remember even wintertime in Marrakech is nicer than much of the world! Stick with local drinks. Alcohol is out there and legal but it’s very expensive. Check with your hotel or raid for discounts or free admission/cover charges for clubs if you're curious about this. Negotiate on any large purchases you propose to form. But prices are assailed smaller things like water, fruit, food, etc.
