Hi Val and Claire

Am also booked on the same tour as yourselves. This will be my second trip with JY. You didn't mention your ages but on my first trip to China age was of no consequence as we all got on fine. I am in my sixties but still young at heart. Look forward to meeting you both.

Regards Jenny

Hi Lynne,

I'm going from Heathrow - I live in North Wales though so will be getting the National Express bus down to London - a pain I know but hey at least I'll have some extra spending money!!

Hi Claire

What a coincidence, I'm from North Wales too! I'm sure there will be some travelling from Manchester though. I believe there is at least 30 booked on this trip. Starting to get excited about it now.

Anyone got any tips for minimising the contents of my suitcase? lol!

Hi Mike, Another first timer - great!!

Has anyone given any thought as to what extra excursions they want to do? I'm definetely doing the Grand Canyon trip!! A trip over to Alcatraz sounds like a must do as well!!

Woo-hoo, starting to count the weeks down now!!

:-)

I reckon we've got plenty of time to decide on optional trips. However I fancy the Living desert in Palm Springs, and in Las Vegas the 3 in 1 trip to Grand Canyon, also the Rat Pack. See what the tour guide has to say first. Time certainly passes quickly, now only two months and counting (down).

Hi everyone

Nine weeks yesterday to go and packing my suitcase in my head already. As for trips,I agree with previous suggestions and a trip to see HM Queen Mary would be interesting. I must see the Grand Canyon which has been on my wish list for years. Will most probably contact you all again before then but if not see you at Heathrow.

Regards Jenny

Hi All

I can't believe i'ts nearly 8 weeks until our trip!! Regarding optional tours, I will probably go with the flow when I'm there. Still need tips on minimising my suitcase if anyone has any? I'm glad to see someone is going from Manchester(thought I was the only one too!)- Hi Sue, see you at the airport!

Thx torix

Hi Tori

I did the 3 in 1. The most expensive but worth every penny. I enjoyed the boat trip at the bottom of the canyon the best. Sitting on the Colorrado river was fantastic.

The area they take you to by Helicopter after the boat trip is where the Skywalk is. So if you want to do that as well you can. You just pay on the gate about 20 dollars if I remember correctly.

I definitly recommend the 3 in 1. A once in a lifetime experience.

Be prepared for an early start that morning, we had to be on the bus for 4.45 am!!!!!

You have picked a brilliant holiday. You will enjoy yourself tremendously.

Anything else you want to know just ask.

Take care

Darren
