I admire your honesty in listing the pros & cons of group travel. For Barbara & myself, one of the great pleasures of independent travel is researching & mapping out our trip before we ever get in the air. Group travel makes one lazy! However, I also believe that at our age certain places like China and Southeast Asia will have to be seen as part of a group. Karen, don't ever lose your love of travel. It's what keeps us 'young'!barothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12186165767181393154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2200669326669138986.post-11609878501635258552010-07-04T09:50:03.763-04:002010-07-04T09:50:03.763-04:00Reni, Glad to hear that you didn’t have to endure ...Reni, Glad to hear that you didn’t have to endure those shopping trips. <br /><br />Ashleigh, I agree with your in-laws take on group travel!<br /><br />And, Nance, I’m not so sure about your theory about R’s and D’s. I’m fairly certain everyone on our tour was a D. My guess is that D’s are much more likely to travel to places like Peru.karenhttp://www.gmail.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2200669326669138986.post-25849073972650064092010-07-02T09:58:34.967-04:002010-07-02T09:58:34.967-04:00My in-laws' take on their group tour to the Br...My in-laws' take on their group tour to the British Isles : Stops at shops with long lines to the restroom.... should we buy gifts or relieve our bladders.... oh, just pay for a few of those sweaters and get back in line....<br /><br />I should tell you, though, that I still wear that hastily grabbed gift, 30 years later.<br />a/bAshleigh Burroughshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05790757220725900941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2200669326669138986.post-8194434523170347102010-07-01T23:08:40.801-04:002010-07-01T23:08:40.801-04:00Theory: There are more introverts than extroverts ...Theory: There are more introverts than extroverts in the Democratic ranks, and group tours appeal to extroverts more than introverts; therefore, you'll find more Republicans who've made several group tours and plan to make more. That's a huge stretch and it's type-casting at its worst, but it would be a fun bit of research.<br /><br />And I'm with you on shopping and group tours. I find it really hard to just relax and go with that particular flow.Nancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15166865250789996825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2200669326669138986.post-26337709236650238832010-07-01T07:00:00.814-04:002010-07-01T07:00:00.814-04:00Hi Karen, The shopping trip seems to be the stuff ...Hi Karen, The shopping trip seems to be the stuff of group tour legend, though happily on my only group tour there wasn't any specific shopping stop and the trip was heavy on cultural and historical tutorials. It's great you were able see so many beautiful sites and there's so much more that you and Rick can explore on your own. Here's to the cathedrals and cafes still to come!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
