Incredible Journey Newsletter, July 2010



Incredible Journey Newsletter		Issue 65 July 2010

Greetings!

With the travel industry taking a huge hit and businesses down sizing, shutting their doors, or being gobbled up with buyouts, we at Incredible Journey are just happily marching along - offering our clients exceptional service and value. It is our past clients who we would like to say THANK YOU to, as without you we would be struggling.

New to the agency is my long time friend, and travel buddy, Kim Giordano. Kim is a native San Diegan, and knows the ins and outs of renting private homes in such fabulous beach side settings of Coronado, Pacific Beach, Carlsbad and many other locales. She can help arrange day trips, fishing excursions (her husband is an avid fisherman), surf lessons, historical and ghostly encounters, museums etc. all of which make San Diego a destination not to be missed.

Mike Sanders just returned from a visit to Tahiti and is excited to tell everyone about the amazing values and offers this destination is providing for 2010. (mike@incrediblejourney.net)

Patricia, my sister and travel buddy, has been busy cruising the world and has also recently visited Tahiti's newest and grandest resort The Four Seasons Bora Bora. (pat@incrediblejourney.net)

I encourage you to contact your Incredible Journey team to help create a personalized and memorable vacation.

Thanks again for appreciating the hard work we put into each and every Incredible Journey!

20 Tips: Dos & Don'ts for Leaf Peepers

1. DO get lost. Carry a good map (we like the detailed atlas and gazetteer series by DeLorme mapmakers in Yarmouth, Maine; 800-561-5105; delorme.com) and get a little lost. With 7,401 miles of unpaved roads just in Vermont, there's ample opportunity to find adventure.

2. DO observe proper foliage etiquette. Locals use the back roads to get from here to there as promptly as possible. If you're oohing and ahhing at five miles per hour, pull over when someone's behind you. And DO ask a landowner's permission before tramping into the fields.
