Hey if you like the Rick Steves philosophy of travel and you live in the Phoenix Area, we are meeting Thursday evening, at the cafeteria-style restaurant upstairs at Ikea. You can find us on meetup.com, the name is Rick Steves Fans Travel Chat, Phoenix Area. We are a small group but between us we have a lot of travel experience, enthusiasm, and good will. You don't have to actually join the meetup to attend, but it's a good idea to check our page on meetup.com before coming, in case we have to cancel for some reason. Hope to see you!
(We are not officially connected to the Rick Steves organization.)
Not sure that ANY of the Travel Groups here have "official" connections to the Rick Steves organisation -- but that doesn't stop them being useful and fun.
What time are you meeting?
We meet at 6:30 PM. I would recommend checking the meetup.com page ("Rick Steves Fans Travel Chat, Phoenix Area") before you go just in case we have to cancel for some reason. Looking forward to meeting you!
