Take Advantage of Others' Travel Fears
Travel is as safe as ever. Newspapers are not as popular as ever. What connects the two subjects? To motivate you to buy a paper/read it on line/ or glance at a newsstand, head lines have to be horrifying and misleading.
Middle Eastern refugees will not attack you in Europe. Berbers will not throw a bomb at you in Morocco. No one is waiting in a niche at the Colosseum in Rome to rob you. But newspaper headlines will hint that all of this will happen, and will happen to YOU.…

Why Mexico and Why Never a Cruise to Mexico?
We are the only women’s group with Tours to Mexico. We never cruise there….Why?
There are at least 10 reasons:

Mexico means value; the US Dollar is 35% higher and $20 will get you an amazing gift.
Fine dining is reasonable and memorable. The number of special restaurants in culinary capitals like Puebla is staggering.…
