We Make YOUR Travel Plans EASY
It is officially Spring!

I love seeing the trees come back to life as the buds turn to leaves, brown grass turns green and flowers bloom. I recently spent a lovely day at the Dallas Arboretum where they have a spectacular display of tulips and daffodils.

For those of you who are still snowed in, hang on, you will also enjoy Spring before too long. Believe it or not, we have not traveled during the month of March and will not be getting on an airplane until May 3.

It's true what they say; "There's No Place Like Home!" It's been nice catching up on work, taking care of appointments and reading some good books.

Wishing everyone who celebrates a Happy Easter and Passover.

Health at Sea
Doctor s medical stethoscope over africa healthcheck. Medical concept tourism travel care diseases healthy_ close-up. Selective focus
I often get asked about Health at Sea including what kind of medical care is available for those who do get sick. Being on a cruise ship is actually much healthier for you than being on an airplane, in a classroom or in the hospital.

Cruise ships maintain excellent medical centers staffed with at least one doctor and several nurses. While they do have set hours, all are available for emergencies round the clock.
Need a Scooter?
We can help!
Do you need to rent a scooter or other mobility equipment for your next cruise or land trip?

Be sure and let us know and we can make arrangements for you through Special Needs Group.

Standard and heavy duty scooters, wheelchairs, hospital beds, hoyer lifts, lift chairs, oxygen and more are all possibilities for you when you travel.
Where Do You Want to Travel???

I know I've asked this question before but this is how our group trips come to be. I've started working on another Hawaii Cruise which will probably take place in Fall, 2019. While I like to find new and exciting places to visit, I will return to a previous destination if enough of you put in a request. The factors that determine if we can do a trip are number of accessible cabins and/or hotel rooms and the ability to get accessible transportation with tie downs for wheelchairs.
I would love to do a land tour to our National Parks in the West or a tour of Northern California. How about Branson, MO? Please let me know and we can begin to explore some new destinations. These trips are for you and you make them happen.
