Well, I did this tour alone as Jeff had a rehearsal. The Firewalking part was amazing and along with it the locals did rituals and performed a fight scene along with dancing and juggling and storytelling. Altogether it was a very enjoyable day.
I'm always tired after touring, as I'm not sure I've recovered from this bug 100%. I've learned that others who have had this bronchitis like thing have landed in the doctors care and a few haven't emerged from their cabins for weeks! I also heard that for a while we flew a "yellow flag" which means we have a certain percentage of sickies onboard. We guessed at 25% or so. The odd thing about it is that you might feel fairly good in the morning, but by midday or mid afternoon you really want to find a cocoon and hideaway.
I've learned that I will probably be bunking with Jeff in his cabin for a short period of time between cruises...well actually from Sydney until perhaps Brisbane as the housing folks figure out if they have another cabin for me. So I'll be giving up my lovely balcony high rise for a basement co-op for a bit.
