    Thanks for the insights.
    I will try the electrolyte solution and/or liquids and try a 12 hour fast initially.

    Phew! Used up two of my three flex days, however the trip went better than I had expected. Took advantage of opportunities as they arose and managed to get some sort of workout nearly every day. There was a lot of walking around so that part was effortless. Thanks to some enthusiastic company was able to do a few group yoga sessions as well.
