YeaAAA!! thanks so much for this thread!! I'm on my way in 4+ days wondering what the heck am I doing going solo again when here y'all are, reminding me of how wonderful and exhilarating it truly is. Guess I'd forgotten over the course of the last 9 months which is when I booked.... the moment I got home from last time, I knew I wanted to do it again!! So yes, got me hand in da air, waving it like I just don care!! WooHoo - JA, here (hear) me come!!
