I've noticed the same about absence of any large groups. And have only spotted 5 people I have met before that will be there this time. Admit I'm about as nervous about this trip as I was on my first. Then I remember the good times on that first trip and the worry begins to fade. See you in about 2 weeks
Thanks, so I am not alone in my observation. Either that or we are both out in left field! As far as nerves, no need to be nervous. Just be open, accepting, ourgoing, and most of all friendly. You know the deal, just pack them away in a drawer and leave them at home. Best wishes for a great trip!
