It’s occurred to me that my previous postings did focus somewhat on the staying-up-and-drinking aspects of this holiday. Perhaps this gives a bad impression.
The holiday, so far, has been great. I must admit that I didn’t quite expect the 8 am departures why it’s done that way. They manage to pack a lot of stuff into the time there is. We’re also getting some excellent local guides to show us around places, which is the sort of thing you’d not be able to sort out on your own.
The early nights/early mornings are still a bit strange to get used to but I may as well make the most of it. This last week is an optional extension and is supposed to be a bit more laid back so I should get a chance to relax a bit more. We’ve also lost almost half the group that aren’t doing the extension which is a bit strange, it also makes me one of the youngest people here — although I was always the youngest guy on the tour. Previously we’d all been kinda getting used to each other, but now with the smaller group it almost feels like a new tour.
It’s a bit to hot for me to sit here and think of anything else to write, a few days of rest, then a few more things to see and then off to Vegas.
