This is one of those trips you shouldn't remember much of, so, ummm, beer is good.

damn a trip to walmart for a 48 qt ice chest. That sucks. my understanding that they only allow a 48 qt ice chest per floating device. So 5 people in a raft get 1 48 qt ice chest and 1 person in a canoe get a 48 qt ice chest. WTF, who made up these rules. We are taking rubber inter tubes, so 48 qt ice chest for everyone instead of sharing a 50 qt ice chest. I guess that means more beer:D
