ditching our bikes because we have Moon shoes [Music] oh God what a nightmare [Music] ah Burning Man 2023 what really happened it's funny because my intuition knew something was going to be different about this year but I wasn't quite sure what since the Black Rock Desert rarely gets rain of this magnitude we figured oh she got it all out of her system we checked weather forecasts and there was no forecast for rain in fact we'd heard that the rains had caused the Playa to be pressed and hard packed which would mean a year with less dust but that simply wasn't the case in fact we traded our dust for mud so off we went to the Playa Rico poet I don't know it we are on our way to Black Rock City we are starting our journey blessings protection love all of the awesome stuff Adventure Burning Man is something that myself and my community look forward to every single year it's a place where we can be ourselves express ourselves and spend time together and just be kids oh oh oh wait okay it's a
