Barb - Don’t suppose traveling solo has anything to do with this:

But seriously. As opposed to travelling alone, increase by 50% the time required to see the same amount if you add one travelling companion. Increase by 85% for a third travelling companion. For every additional travelling companion, add 1 hour per daytrip (figuring in bathroom needs, ATM needs, looking for pharmacies for odd creams or pills, rare and odd shopping obsessions, foot problems, need to call home right away - - where is a phone & where can you buy a phone card?, strange obsessions with certain forms of food including debating for two hours while searching for a restaurant, need to buy a new SD card for the camera, and sundry emotional breakdowns, personal hang-ups, and bouts of sheer out-and-out hysteria).

dfourh - Love your percentage analysis. Never thought of that way, but that’s a big reason why I travel solo.
Aducham1 - So funny! Hope they aren’t reading your comment. But have to assume if they were fellow Fodorites, they’d probably be better travel companions.
