Nancy's confirmed trips

Wednesday, 01/09/08
SEMESTER AT SEA offers many, many excusions while we are in port. For a few of them, students, faculty & staff were asked to select preferences (& one alternate if we didn't get first choice) & pay in advance. I selected eight excusions in five different ports that are special interest to me. I recently received a "Statement of Confirmed Trips" and I will be able to go on seven of my first choices for trips and one alternate trip. I'll have to careful what I ask for--these excursions are expensive . . . For today (& until Friday), I'm at Chapman U, but I certainly am anticipating these great trips:
PUERTO RICO: (1) City Orientation, Old & New, a (2) Rain Forest Hike, & go to the (3) Ponce & Tribes Indian Center.
BRAZIL: An afternoon group for (1) Carnival Viewing & (2) go on a 3-day trip to Iguacu Falls!!!!!!
SOUTH AFRICA: (1) 4-day Safari to Pilanesberg (my first choice was Kruger Park, but this sounds very interesting also).
INDIA: (1) Art of Living -- a 2-day yoga retreat
VIET NAM: (1) travel to Phnon Penh and Angkor Wat for 3 days!!!
