Cruise Line Updates...RCCL & NCL Join Forces for Healthy Sailing!

Royal Caribbean Group and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings have come together to form a Healthy Sail Panel comprised of a very esteemed team of professionals including doctors, scientists, etc. to develop the best way to insure the safety of guests and crew when cruising resumes. Their findings were presented to the CDC this past week and everyone is hoping for a favorable response in regards to the return to sailing date. Several Cruise Lines are currently operating in European waters and are enjoying positive outcomes. These sailings are showing the world that we do need to co-exist with Corona Virus and take the necessary precautions to make sure we have a healthy and happy voyage. I am booked on two cruises in 2021 and one in 2022 and cannot wait to "Get Out Of Town". I hope you'll join me!
New Trips for 2022 & Beyond...

Once most travel has resumed and we are welcomed back to Europe, we will begin working on other trips including a land trip to Ireland in 2022.
Remember, you don't have to wait for a group to travel. We are happy to plan a trip just for you!
Keep reading our monthly newsletters to know when new groups are announced.

MANY ALL INCLUSIVE RESORTS
ARE OPEN

Do you realize that many All Inclusive Resorts are open and waiting for you in the Caribbean and Cabo San Lucas? Most resorts are operating at about 30% capacity and are following strict protocols for your safety and their's. I have had several colleagues visit properties and they have reported glowing results and have many recommendations. You will be treated royally. Resorts need and want our business and we need and want to get away. Let's talk about your options!

CANDY TIME!!!

Is it really Halloween already? Halloween will certainly have a different spin on it this year and the majority of kids will not be trick or treating. Very sad. Be creative...set up a scavenger hunt in your house and let your kids and grandkids search out those treats or play games and the winners get candy. No matter how you celebrate, enjoy!

MY READING LIST

I got a very favorable response last month from posting my "Pandemic Reading List" and the books I've read since March. Books below in red are my newest reads. I truly love escaping into the pages and lives of the characters.

Fly Away Home by Jennifer Weiner
Cooking For Picasso by Camille Aubrey
Educated by Tara Westover
Summer of 69 by Elin Hilderbrand
Big Summer by Jennifer Weiner
A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles
Florence Adler Swims Forever by Rachel Beanland
American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins
An Unorthodox Match by Naomi Ragen
Beneath A Scarlett Sky by Mark Sullivan
The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah
Eli's Promise by Ronald Balson
Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate ( One of my favorites!)

Some of these are easy reading (Chick Lit) but some are fairly intense. Enjoyed every one of these books. Reading is a great escape to another time and place which I think we can all use a little of right now.
My next book is Where The Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens.

We Do Individual & Group Travel
Do you know that we actually plan more trips for individuals than we do for our groups? We love when you participate in our groups but please remember to call us when you want to plan a vacation for the two of you or with a group of friends or family members. We can most likely plan any type of vacation you want and we will be sure to address all your accessibility requirements and needs. We so enjoy doing the research for you and look forward to planning that next trip just for you! Also, if you see one of our groups that you would like to do but perhaps the dates don't work, give us a call. We can usually duplicate the same trip just for you and your travel companions.
