Getting around

Chauffeured all weekend.

A private bus moves the whole group when we're together, and two vans when the girls and guys split for the night. Thursday through Saturday it's handled — no three-Uber scrambles, no waiting on a corner, no map standoffs at 1am.

Door to door, all 22 of us.
