We discussed the issue at the daily meeting, not only thinking about
us that have already seen our best years and are old and brittle, but
also about the newer genration that is willing to climb mountains
before breakfast and would be frustrated at sitting down on a bus trip
for the whole day.

Thingis, we don't have the information, and the tour operator cannot
be reached for clarification on weekends. And... Yes, we have the
deadline to register by tomorrow evening. Which is quite challenging,
as some people will still be on their way towards Korea and it would
be unfair to deny them a daytrip or shut them out.

We acknowledge the description is incomplete. But that's what we have
from our provider. We will request some flexibility; the fact we have
to choose a daytrip option by tomorrow is unfortunate, and I hope they
acknowledge the need to allow some people to register that haven't
done so, or to change their options.

Hugs,
