If your near a REI try renting a sleeping pad for the next trip and place it under the stock pad. I found that the firmer air mat under the foam pad added just the right pad stiffness to keep hips amd such off the hard plywood. The foam topper from costco was nice but it goes flat and you still find your self on the hard plywood. The self inflatble rei pads come in different thicknesses and you can adjust the air pressure to your tastes. Thats been the best results for us so far

interesting. I do have a self-inflatable pad for tent camping. It's narrow, but I'll give it a shot and see how well it works. I can always get a wider one!

I don't think I'd Trek for Turkey if I had access to oysters like that!  I hope they were as good as they looked.

Ha! I didn't know about the oysters when I set out of my Trek! 

They were DELICIOUS! :-D
