Oh I get it, you like pain. You should drop by Retrofrolic during the burn then

I have a friend that says "I've been to two worlds fairs and a goat roast, but I ain't never seen something like that."

Derby, I feel I should share an experience I had an BRC. I was newly diagnosed with Celiac Disease and it was not only my first time camping after this, but also my first time out to the dust. I came to a camp with a game set up. I played for fun and won a beer (which I can't drink

). The guy running the booth offered a kiss. I politely declined and explained I was gay. The woman next to him offered up a gluten-free bar and a kiss.

No one in the desert cares. It is your life and BRC is about radical INCLUSION. Don't exclude others or yourself out of fear.

Hello! my name is Ellis from the Netherlands and hopefully I will be a burner for the first time this year!! I'm doing some research what is best to do etc. because I probably will travel from san francisco with the burner express bus with a backpack and tent. I was wondering if you could give me some tips for how to bring the water? Does anyone have any experience regarding this topic? I would be delighted if someone could give me some advice...Thank you so much in advance already

kind regards, Ellis

There is a. Burner express link in the burningman web page. It will tell you about how people who rode the bus could get water at the burn. I'm sorry I don't know the specifics but I do remember reading about it last year.

Since it rains everyday, most of us just collect the rain water in large barrels and that seems to work out pretty well.

Ellis listen to Lucky. You can make arrangements with the bus company in advance. You also bring your own containers and pay up front.

ERIC: My camp is mostly straight, at this point we're probably a third GBT (somehow we don't have any "L"'s this year, but two of our B's are F's... ), no one cares.

Thanks, I need to clean my screen from spitting Dew all over it!! LOL

Must have been the moment but I scared my dog I laughed so hard.

Sorry, Carry on....

Hi Ellis. Beginning last year Burner Express let you buy water on playa IF you travelled in by bus. I expect it will be the same this year. You need to bring your own containers though. If you use the standard "gas can" looking containers they take up as much space full as empty and you are charged by the bag but not by weight

. If you bring the roll up type there are a lot of stories about leaks. Remember, you need to bring in food for a week also. I think that the SF bus does not stop for food and water, you have to board with it all. Also, access to the SF bus is either drop off or by Metro/Underground/ whatever they call it in SF. Some of the Reno busses stop at Keystone shopping center for food, water, etc.

I've taken the bus for the past four years, bringing my entire camp with me. Last year I brought only half my water and pre bought the rest from Burner Express. Containers where a PITA but it worked ok. You can buy ice at Artica, on playa. If you keep ice in gallon ziplocks it is still clean and drinkable when it melts. Don't forget your electrolytes!

I always remember my summer in Den Haag. You have a fine country, friendly people.
