David MPickup was punctual. Must people were ready at their respective hotels except a group of locals who had not finished breakfast so we had to wait 20 minutes. IMO the driver should not wait - if they're late it's their problem.
Then tanked up.
Then passed out hotel 1 hour after being picked up there
But when we finally got glon the highway to VV it was fast and smooth.
Just too much racing about back lanes in VTN.
