Summer is ending....
Is it really the last day of August? Did you just send your teen off to college or your little ones to school? Best of luck to all!
To all of my friends, clients and colleagues in the Houston and South Texas area, our prayers and thoughts are with every one of you and hope you and your loved ones are safe and your losses are minimal. Life is so very fragile and unpredictable. We were in Houston earlier in the month and had a great time as always and enjoyed seeing so many of you and making new friends. Please take care....

Ireland, Here We Come...
After more than a year of planning, we are off to Ireland for arrival into Belfast on Sunday. We will spend two nights in each city on our itinerary. We have a jam packed schedule and plan to hit all the highlights of this beautiful country. Ireland is filled with gorgeous scenery and some of the friendliest people you can meet. I'm looking forward to the delicious fresh North Atlantic salmon and the big Irish breakfasts. More importantly, I'm looking forward to meeting up with my group. We have several people I have traveled with before, some people I have worked with but never met and some people I will get to know for the first time. Very exciting. I do know that this will be another fantastic group. Safe travels to all and I will see you Sunday!

New England & Canada
Escape With Us October 7-14, 2018
Norwegian Escape, round-trip New York
HURRY & RESERVE before they're GONE
We did this itinerary in 2014 and it is one of my favorite trips. Just ask the lucky people who sailed with us. We all had an amazing time. We depart out of Manhattan and sail to Portland, Maine, Bar Harbor (may be tendered), Halifax, Nova Scotia and St. John, New Brunswick. The scenery is breathtaking and we should be on time for some beautiful changing colors.
This itinerary is in high demand. Therefore, it is very important that you reserve your cabin as soon as possible or they may be pulled by ship inventory. A deposit of $500 will hold your space and is fully refundable until June 15, 2018. Don't be disappointed.

Easy Access Travel Returns to ALASKA!!!
We will be doing another Alaska Group Cruise round-trip Seattle August 4 - 11, 2018. This time we will be cruising with NCL on a ship being built specifically for Alaska, Norwegian Bliss. She is not built yet but promises to be absolutely amazing with walls of glass for your viewing pleasure. Complete details have been posted to my website. We have just secured space and are anxious to share it with you. NCL is known for the hulls on their ships being painted by famous artists. The Bliss will have her hull painted by Wyland, famous for his paintings of whales and sea life that decorate many building walls on the West Coast. We are also working on a two night Seattle pre-cruise adventure.
Please email or call to sign up. Many cabins already spoken for.

Where to Next???
Do you realize that many of our trips come about because one of you told me that's where you want to go? I aim to please so if you have a dream destination or something on your bucket list, please share it with me and I will try to make it happen. As long as we can get appropriate accommodations and accessible transportation, we can do it. I promise the New Zealand itinerary will be forthcoming. We have the itinerary but we are working on pricing and dates.

TRAVEL TIPS
Traveling with a scooter or power chair?
Be sure to bring some shower caps to cover the controls if you get caught in a rain storm. Getting the controls wet can cause an outage or make the scooters beep nonstop. Both are very annoying. Also bring along some duck tape to secure the shower caps to prevent them from blowing away. Bring some ponchos along as well. These cover you and your mobility equipment very well. I usually go to the Dollar Store and stock up on all items except the duck tape. The duck tape at the Dollar Store is not good quality and too difficult to use.
Deb's Medical Update
& Travel Adventures
Other than going to Houston for Abilities Expo in early August, I have actually been staying put. I've enjoyed my time at home but have especially enjoyed having visits from each of my sisters during the month. I am so blessed to have two wonderful sisters who I consider to be my best friends. We all love to shop, eat good food and going to the movies. We did a lot of all of this and I had the best time.
My health is good and I continue to work on my balance and walking. Baby steps, one day at a time!
