Days later, I kept coming back to the 45 I felt at that moment. There was nothing wrong 46 anyone on my tour-----they were all nice, polite, and talkative, and we got along well. But tours are 47 organize d, and sometimes you closely 48 with people and sometimes you don’t. Dining alone may well be one most awkward times of solo travel. But like anything, the more you do it the more you get used to it.
