    Coty, our tour guide, ghosted us. They were good about communicating earlier; they asked if we could shift the tour from 4 to 7. We agreed. At 6:50 he texted & said he was running a few minutes late. We waited till 8:10 at the meeting location & texted several times, but got no response.

    The tour was unexpectedly informative. I thought I’d get bored with the drinking but our guide Cody kept it interesting with his fountain knowledge about the city. The drinking was very pleasant too as he took us to try the good stuff. We all had fun.
