For dinners: a few days before the trip confirmed participants will be provided with a list of places nearby our location at the end of each day. Participants can decide according to their preferences and then the organizer will make reservations for dinners. Reservations in advance time are needed now because most restaurants have limited admission due to covid. 2. For lunches: it's recommended that participants have sandwiches/packed meals for lunch (driving for grocery shopping will be provided as well as for to/from dinner locations.) This will allow to save daylight time for activities in the parks instead of ordering and waiting for food. 3. Breakfasts are in hotel, starting 6am, provided in individual wrapping. Sunrise: 6:20am. Sunset: 8:30pm. Everyday we want to start off from the hotel at 7 am or 7:30am, or 8am as the latest. If you are a nigh owl, please try to adjust yourself for an earlier getup during the trip - the purpose of it is to use more of daylight at winter time for activities. No refunds after May 11th. But, if you (or we) are able to find other person to take your spot the refund will be given in full. We will try the best to handle personal requests and situations. Reserve ASAP and feel free to comment/message with any questions!
