Random Final Trip Photos


Here are photos, in no particular order, that didn't make the original cut. A lot are phone pictures.

The scene early one morning . . . Cleta's comforter is neatly opened up at a 45-degree angle. Mine is in a clump. I have no idea how it got that way.

Buffet dinner at the same hotel was awesome, but the lighting was dim and I didn't feel like struggling with trying to get good photos so I just took shots of my plate with my phone.

Ummm . . . maybe a picture is needed because the first time I used one of these toilets I faced the opposite way and wondered why they made it so hard to flush.

j: ooh marimo moss balls! I bought 'em from Amazon for my former fish tank. I don't know if it helped but they looked cool. I LOVE that pix of you -- you lost weight! It is cuz you're semi-vegan now? I also forgot about those cool toys in the vending machine. Loved all your pixs though I don't comment a lot. -N

The reason for the sign telling people to throw their used toilet paper in the toilet is because one group listed throws their used tp on the floor. I heard this group does this because their native plumbing is not made for flushing tp?
