I have this disease. It's called pride. I care about my appearance both at work and on holiday!! Wink

Some people might like to look like wrinklies who just go out of bed - if that is their choice, then each to his own, but don't criticise me for wanting to look presentable!

Suits me! I look like a cave man anyway! My wife sometimes tells me I smell like one too!

Hi Expom, somehow I don't think your wife was complimenting you re her comment. Wink

Forget about what you do at home and live on the edge for a few weeks!

Personally I don't care what other people think BUT I do care about what I think. I agree with Gennevive on this one. Smiler

Wow! Let me put my head back on Roll Eyes
Obviously some people are passionate about this issue. Don't get me wrong, I care about the way I look also but there are REALLY early mornings on these tours and as the days go by you will savour every moment you get to sleep in. I was just on the European Heritage tour so spent a total of 6 weeks away and believe me after the first few days of getting up (sometimes in the dark) there's no way I was getting up to primp any earlier than I had to.

I personally just air dry my hair. The one on the left is a little longer than the one on the right, so the right one dries 0.35 of a second faster. And so, my opinion as a result of personal experience is no blow drier is needed.

I rarely include myself in any pictures, but for the few that I do, I'd prefer to look half decent - including my hair.
During this last trip, Britian and Ireland Explorer, I basically gave up! Between the constant on again of again rain we had for a week, I just let the hair do what it wanted.
I have a wonderful pic of me by Stonehenge with the wind blowing the hair right in my face - and that was the best pic I could get. Smiler

I was away six weeks too, and also had early morning starts.

I guess it is what you are used to. At home I get up at 4.45am everyday for work, so to sleep in until 5.30am on tour was a treat, and I still had time to get up and do my hair, and take a walk almost every morning before breakfast.

My motto is - you sleep enough when you are dead, so as in the Bon Jovi song - live while you are alive, sleep when you're dead!!! True, true, wake up and see the sunrise and smell the roses!!

solittletime, just think, if we all agreed about everything, what a boring place the world would be. I'm just grateful that I have hair to blow dry. Wink

Infotrack, you are the lucky one. Smiler Smiler
