So..another tour. Yeah..it gets a bit tedious..with one tour after another...but it's the only way to make your way across the outback.

We had our usual 11 (oh..only 9 as claudia and nick didn't continue) but we added some more folks. We had teh worst guide, Bryan. He was so obsessive about how things had to be done..we clashed big time. As a guide, he was very knowledgeable and he knew his job, but his personality didh't fit this job. For example, when we stoopped to eat lunch, there would be 2 picnic tables. We'd sit the food on one table and he' d have a fit...it has to be sat on the other table. Table were identical..what did it matter. He fussed at Gabby (Mexico) and Maria (Brazil) right off the bat and that didn't set well with them either. Anyways, I did well..and bit my tongue. Usually, I didn't volunteer to help do food prep because no matter how you did it, it didn't meet his standards...so I just volunteered to wash dishes...couldn't go wrong there.

Despite my not liking Bryan...the tour was great...had my traveling buds with me and we saw and did some amazing things...so read ahead
