luggage and going to the bathroom
I am planning to do this race for the first time with my team mates The Dragon Healers(a dragon team in San Francisco California. We may have a raft with 4 women on the two teams. What do we do with our luggage, we plan on staying to do tourist stuff after the race. How do women go to the bathroom on the raft? We need to know. kathy
