Thanks man! You will have a great time! If you do The Wave make sure to go online and apply for your permit 4 months in advance. I got really lucky and got a permit in the Walk up lottery.

It really is unreal! The pictures on my camera looked good. I have some great ones on my phone but need to edit the color a tad on those.

No giraffe! That's my toast!

Yeah, it is going to make for some awesome pictures and a hell of a story. Not cheap at all but worth the experience IMO. Kinda one of those bucket list items. Added an extra day to my trip to stay here.

It's things like that are what make life what it is! Not many people will ever say they have done some of the things you have done..

And it's just money. Haha. A lot of it. But it's a renewable resource. Memory's from this won't be

keep your expenses low and figure out what your priorities are. For me doing things is what I like spending my money on. I could buy more FJ stuff but I don't need it. So I have saved up and created a budget so I can do the things I want. I am lucky because I do get a discount on the travel though. My trip would be around $8k if I didn't get the discounts on it.
