Hey all, Barbara has an important conflict and can't make it. So, we have an open spot. I will update on the itinerary when I confirm.

TexasTravelMom, please let me know your availability and if you have a preferred destination you'd like to share from your epic journey!

I'd like to hear from anyone who has taken the small group tours in the Virginie or Sarah style and what the pluses and minuses were.

Well, I was thinking I would do New Zealand, but I can talk about Japan instead, if you want. I will be there for 3 weeks just before our May meeting. Barbara is doing another lovely well-organized trip and mine is going to be far less organized. But I can certainly cover basics. Lol.

Let me know what you’d prefer.

A thought - I am still interested in Jean's Spain trip if she wants to share photos to go with her excellent trip report. But all other destinations great too!!

Add me, please. May or may not be able to actually attend depending on the status of our France trip but will let you know a few days before the meeting.
