It's kind of a nice way to wake up, still sitting in your warm tent, having a nice cup of coffee or tea, whatever you like, and then you get up and start breakfast.

During breakfast, we'll have unlimited drinking water available for you that we treat, and you can mix in, we usually bring up Tang, which is like a, an orange juice mixture, and powdered Gatorade as well.

And then for food, in the morning is, we'll do, um, typically porridge with dried fruits and peanut butter.
10:26
Um, we al- we'll also have eggs and bacon in the morning and bagels.
