October is one of our favorite months.
 
The morning breeze is crisp and full of the unique aroma of autumn. Mother Nature has painted the trees in brilliant shades of garnet and gold.

October is National Plan a Cruise Month! Many cruise lines are showcasing their products with special offers like onboard credit, savings off the current cruise fare, complimentary cabin upgrades, reduced deposits, two-for-one cruise fares, free pre/post-cruise hotel nights, and spa credits. October is the time to plan your next vacation at sea.
 
If you have not already done so, now is the perfect time to book your fall and winter travel plans. We still have a good selection of packages and deals from seasonal festivals, European Christmas Markets to outdoor adventures. Act now to secure the best offers.

This month has also been designated Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Many organizations have joined the fight against breast cancer and all cancers. One is the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Explore Anacortes, Washington

Anacortes, Washington - A town you have never heard of in the San Juan Islands!

Now when most people first hear about the San Juan islands, they immediately think of Puerto Rico or the Caribbean. But, no! The San Juan islands are at the very opposite corner of the United States. Head to Seattle, Washington, rent a car, and drive the best part of two hours due north and you will find the San Juan Islands and the small town of Anacortes.
 
Machu Picchu, Peru
by Ignacio Maza
 
For many travelers who visit Peru, Machu Picchu ("old mountain") is the number one  attraction and the highlight of the trip. Over the years, Machu Picchu has become South America's most famous archaeological site, and one of the top attractions in South America. It is located in a beautiful setting, on the ridge of a mountain overlooking the Urubamba river valley and surrounded by the high Andes. To ensure you have the best possible experience, it pays to do some homework.

  What is TLC?
The Traveling Ladies Club (TLC) was created for like-minded women from all walks of life who love to travel and want to share the experience with others.  We know women who are single, divorced, and widowed that love to travel but don't necessarily want to travel alone. We also know women whose spouse or significant other doesn't care to travel or doesn't share the same travel interests.
 
There is no membership fee to join us! The only two requirements are that you are a woman and you want to travel.
 
At Holiday Cruises & Tours, we are very excited about putting together a variety of trips just for women!  TLC  has a quarterly newsletter that comes out just prior to a quarterly event.  The next issue will come out in early December. If you would like to be added to the email distribution list for TLC newsletter and events, or to find out details about any of our "ladies only" trips listed below, please either call us at (850) 386-7327 or register at www.funseas.com/tlc. You will learn about the various trips planned "for ladies only" over the next several months.  These adventures are based on the feedback received from our lady travelers.  We would love to have you join us!
