Hi all,

I have some pictures from the event (including the ridiculous situation 
of a fully dressed fem museum interpreter in front of several naked 
older men), but I was not intending to circulate them for Tina's reasons.
By the way: This was a secluded tour. And for using the facilities in 
between, these guys had to cloak and uncloak again.:-)
