Thanks! If only I could keep it out of my teeth when I eat, though.

Lovely photos Rex, thanks for posting them and sharing your time at the games with us all. One of these years we'll make it down there I'm sure.

I have a pair of scissors you can borrow that will trim it right up.

Very nice Rex. We were there friday and saturday. I hate I missed you. Your photos do a far bit more justice than mine.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for thegreat pix, Rex! Brought back fond memories of my experiences at Grandfather's. Those mountain rhododendrons are impressive.

BTW, did you manage to get a hot shower?

As often as I wanted one, yes. There was a rumor that in the future there will be hot showers on demand all day.

So, here's a tip for first-timers, next time, if the hot shower set-up is the same: take as little with you as possible to the showers. There is no room for changing, there are no facilities for anything else, no sinks, no shelves, no seats - just a few nails to hang things on between the stalls. If you don't want it to get wet, don't take it. A USA Kilts casual model with the velcro is GREAT! Wear flip-flops or sport sandals into the showers - step out with them on. The queue forms up to a half hour early.

Regards,
Rex.
