CRUISE AROUND THE HAWAIIAN  ISLANDS  Oct 31 – Nov 07, 2015!   

LIFE IS SHORT–GO FOR IT! With AN INVITATION for an All-Inclusive Cruise To Hawaii OCT 31, 2015!

WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS– CONSIDER BEING SPONTANEOUS!

Some of the best traveling I’ve done was at the last minute.  This cruise opportunity is available year round, but  I’ll be sailing on this amazing cruise around the Hawaiian Islands  Oct 31 – Nov 07, 2015. There are still guaranteed balcony cabins available for $1,599 per person–– Come join me!

Only Norwegian lets you visit four islands in seven days, which means you’re on an island each and every day!  It is no wonder that they were voted Porthole Magazine’s “Best Hawaii Itinerary” for 10 years in a row! And since NCL is the only cruise line that homeports in Hawaii, offering convenient year-round Saturday departures, you can vacation on your schedule.  I’ll be sailing around Hawaii Oct 31, 2015. Why don’t you come along and join me.

Be spontaneous–Go for it!

Hello excited travelers!  Many people expect that nothing could possibly happen to them as they travel.  But, some of us have learned that life  is unpredictable.  My job is to make you aware of the things you might not think of when you travel.

Because I have seen so many unexpected things happen during my travels, I have become very “risk averse”.  I personally have seen a person have to be air lifted off a ship 1/2 way to Cabo and be returned to San Diego by medical evacuation helicopter. My 1st thought when I heard what was happening was ” I hope that person has travel insurance to cover this.” You have to have the right insurance coverage to pay for that.  I’ve seen a person step off a tour bus and break her ankle.  She had to pay for emergency transport and hospital expense and re-schedule her flights to another country to get back home to see her own doctors and pay again.  I know a man who had a stroke while on a cruise and had to stay a week in a foreign hospital in Turkey and then be flown home on a special medical transport  (both very expensive.) I’ve seen a young lady break her leg when she slipped at Dunn’s River Falls in Jamaica.  She had to charge $1,500 unexpectedly on her charge card to get medical treatment at the hospital.  A friend slipped on the marble floors at a resort in Cancun and broke her hip.  I could keep going on and on.

I am not trying to alarm you, I merely want you to be protected from unexpected problems.  I always insure myself when I travel and always advise my clients to do the same.  If a plan you have at home currently will cover all the things listed, then you don’t need anything extra.  You can even get coverage up to a day before you travel but the quote is about much more than cancelling the cruise or tour.  When I send you a quote,  please read the coverage very carefully.  The choice is up to you.  If “Las Vegas” is your style, then so be it.  Just know before you go.  I’ve done my part by informing you.  “I wish I had” doesn’t pay for anything.
Bon Voyage, Susan

Cruises get you to top historic attractions around the world, often with the bonus of historians on board offering their expert insight. For more hands-on learning, book guided shore excursions to see the sights, or plan ahead and explore on your own.

Does smooth sailing and smaller group gatherings with a more intimate feeling appeal to you?

Or, do you prefer the hustle bustle of a huge group and long walks to get all over a ship as well as on and off?

Do you prefer all-inclusive sailings with soft drinks, wine, beer and perhaps other alcohol, including shore excursions? Perhaps you like paying extra for all of that?

In a nutshell, I believe that River Cruising is a most enjoyable way to travel and gives you greater value because of their all-inclusive deals.

There are plenty of things to worry about while on the road: remembering your passport, confirming your reservations, packing enough socks for a week. Add “protecting your identity” to that list. Each year, victims of identity theft lose some $20 billion in cash and valuables, so arm yourself well in advance. Here are 4 ways to protect your identity while traveling.
