| WeeBee Announces its First 2007 Group Trip: A Cruise to the Mediterranean!! It was with great excitement that we announced our 1st Group Trip for the 2007 Calendar Year: A Cruise to the Mediterranean, on the brand new CARNIVAL FREEDOM, sailing October 16, 2007 for 13 Days and 12 nights!! The response to the announcement was incredible, generating registrations for nearly 20 cabins already in just under 2 weeks' time! It has been several years now that we have wanted to plan an overseas trip, having planned trips throughout the United States and to the Caribbean and Mexico. So this was a long time coming. This voyage will take us to FIVE CITIES in Italy (Rome, Naples, Venice, Messina/Sicily and Livorno/Florence), not to mention a stop in Barcelona, Spain; Cannes, France; and Dubrovnik, Croatia. Eight cities in 13 days!!! It is sure to be a real treat. The best thing is that we make our home this gorgeous new ship, a literal "resort at sea". No packing and unpacking all week long, no long bus or rail trips, no tight tour schedules... cruising in Europe is as carefree as cruising the Caribbean. Except we will be visiting some of the most ancient, romantic and beautiful cities in the world!!! It can't get any better... Payment plans start as early as the end of this month, and for as little as $100 per month. Air package can be added on for as little as $80 per month.

you Ready? December 31, 2006 is FAST approaching. Why is that date significant? Well it markes the official 1ST DAY of the NEW PASSPORT REGULATIONS in the United States. We've been announcing this new law now for over a year... so you knew it was coming. But did you realize it was this fast? Basically what this means, is that after 12/31/06, you will not be able to 'cross the border' of the United States without a VALID US PASSPORT. This means all cruises, all trips to Mexico, travel to any island outside of the US, and of course travel abroad. Some might be apprehensive about obtaining a passport, but it is not as daunting as some might think. The process is very quick and in 6 weeks you have a passport. Best part is, it lasts for 10 YEARS!!! So be worry free for 2007, and get your passport done now, before the "rush" at the end of 2006. If you need assistance just let us know..... we're here to help. |

Recent Tourist Death on it's "Mission: Space" Ride
riding Disney's "Mission: Space" attraction at Epcot Center in Orlando. The ride is said to make you experience twice the force of gravity as you spin around at a very fast speed. This was the 2nd death in a year from the same ride (a 4 year old died just last year after riding the space ride). Disney, in response to the incidents, is now building what they call a "milder" version of Mission: Space, one that would not be as intense as its original. However, the Mission: Space attraction will continue to operate, as it is Epcot Center's most popular attraction. Disney claims that these incidents were isolated, and that the woman who died recently had a history of heart problems. As always, before going on any ride at an amusement park, please take note of the Warning Signs, and if you have any health problems, it's best just to avoid any intense rides!! |
Why I DO Plan on Seeing the movie, "Poseidon" - by Esmee Kyles :-) Okay, admit it..... you've all seen the tv commercials. You know it's coming... the big Summer Blockbuster hit about a Cruise Ship that gets capsized by a freak tidal wave in the middle of the ocean, aptly named, "POSEIDON". Coming to a theater near you!!! I will admit too, though.... it has me scared! I wondered though, why am I scared? Am I scared more because I know I am going on a cruise ship in December, and will now start having nightmares about my own ship capsizing? Was that my fear? Or was I more afraid that some of YOU out there might go see this movie, and for those that were already scared about cruising, that this movie would SOLDIFY their fears, and they'd never cruise again??!!! I realized it was more the latter than the former. I fear for those who don't really know what it's like to cruise. I always said -- everyone should experience a cruise at least ONE time in their lifetime. When else are you pampered, entertained, fed and schmoozed on 24/7 for a whole week?? I want so much just to take everyone by the hand and just take them onto a cruise ship. Just so they can get that same excitement and feel that same feeling that I felt on my first cruise when I was just a 20 year old single sister, still wet behind the ears. I never stopped one time and thought about the fear of cruising. I ask myself, how could ANYONE be afraid of a cruise ship? I never understood it, because in all my life, I never heard of hundreds of people dying on a cruise ship because of some weird accident! Not since Titanic anyway... and hey let's face it - none of us were around for Titanic in 1912!!! I digress... Back to "Poseidon". Am I afraid that this could really happen? Well I'm no more afraid of my ship capsizing than I am that a freak tidal wave will come and demolish New York City, like it did in "The Day After Tomorrow". Bottom line: Hollywood knows what sends us to the movies. Whether you choose to believe what's on the screen is up to you! But as for me, I'm gonna go see that movie, butter in my popcorn, and ice in my Coke.... Hey if I could go swimming in the ocean afer JAWS, I can certainly go on a cruise after watching Poseidon!!!! That's my story, and I'm sticking to it. |
