I'm sure you see the best and the worst of people in this business...... but these kinds of situations must be gut wrenching, and difficult to refrain from 'letting loose'. So sad..

Thanks for sharing some of the difficult aspects of your vocation, I know how passionate you are about giving the best possible experience to your guests. Hope these situations are very few and far between.

Thank you Mel. Thankfully, these situations ARE very rare. This happened many years ago and I have had many wonderful guests since then :-)

No wonder you were such a good tour guide!!! You were tried by "fire". Jack and I will always remember how much we enjoyed you - and Liz -- as our guides. Genie

No. i imagine it wasn't easy. I'm glad you did write about it though. Perhaps it will help someone, somewhere! On a different note I sure wish you were our toue guide in Ireland but I'm sure Bailey will be just fine! Leaving next Friday for two weeks in the Canadian Rockies on the Rocky Mountaineer train. Then Ireland in August....we can't wait!

Stay healthy Michael!

Jim
