  • Picked up from airport by pre-arranged ASQ van and taken to my ASQ hotel (ChorCher).

  • This is “Day 0” and since I arrived at 3pm, I will get dinner, and will be able to choose my meals starting on Day 2, since I need to do it a day in advance from 6am-12pm. So Day 1 meals have already been pre-selected for me.
