Learning new things is part of the point of travel, right? Don't pass up any educational opportunities as the week begins, no matter how seemingly insignificant, and especially if they involve meeting new people! By wednesday afternoon and on into thursday and friday, you might have more trouble mingling with the natives. Whether it's your ego or someone else's, pride can interfere with making closer connections. Take a step back and make sure you aren't getting in your own way. This weekend, find time to reconnoiter and reassess with traveling companions. Teamwork will help you choose the best path to take, plus you'll have fun just making plans.
