Morocco- How exotic does that sound!! Very Humphrey Bogart/Casablanca but much much more if you listened to the show this week. Heidie, who did a segment of the show today is a good friend of ours and Heidi and I have traveled the world together before the TRAV PROF entered my life. When she told me of the sleeping in the desert in a large tent with the desert tribes and riding the camels I could not wait to see her pictures which were breathtaking. The country is one of Africa’s most popular travel destinations and according to www.IEXPLORE.COM

I am quite conflicted over this subject. After working in a hospital in Detroit for 30 years and knowing the margin of success depends on elective procedures on Hips, Knees, Hearts, and Plastics it’s hard to celebrate the success of this new concept. On the other hand it’s hard to ignore it as it is a growing enterprise- 60 million procedures expected over the next five years is no small matter.

We last (first for me) visited Alaska in the summer of 2008. It was my first trip and the Travelprof’s six trip- thus started the first discussion on “what to bring and wear on your trip to Alaska”. We try to travel light but I wanted mittens, hat, scarf, warm coat and he said” it’s July- it will be warm, sunny, and daylight 23 hrs- you don’t need all that stuff!”

Just got finished doing the WJR radio Show on the “Oasis of The
Seas” and what a trip this has been. We were told that there were 3200 guests on board (and I hate crowds) but the ship has so many small intimate spaces and is so large you never felt overwhelmed by all those people. We did not talk on the show about the Spa services or the gym facility. Both were unbelievable. The spa in the largest I have seen on a ship. Very Far Eastern Zen like serene, atmosphere, all bamboo and of course Eucalyptus wonderful smell wafting through out. They are now giving 24K gold facials (I did not have one because I am sure there is a 24K price tag with it) but it looked intriguing. In addition the Gym/exercise facility has all state-of-the-art equipment and something new called gravity classes. It’s on machines that you are upside down on while you exercise.

Just dropping a line before getting packed to help the Travel Professor broadcast his radio show live from the Largest Ship in the world. Five times bigger than the Titanic! A merry-go-round, a zip line, and aqua theater, a moving bar that travels through five cities. Even though the Travel Prof and I disagree on bigger is better (him-typical male) even I am excited to see this ship, the just delivered “Oasis of the Seas”, Royal Caribbean’s new baby. We get on board her Friday and leave Sunday and by the looks of her I don’t think two days will be enough to experience all this ship holds.

I love Germany and have been there many times, Dusseldorf-Giddydorf not so( the Travel Professor is German and the Teacher’s Pet is of Irish descent so I have trouble keeping all the Citydorfs separate) but can’t wait to visit next October when we join the Taster’s Guild on the River Boat trip through the German countryside and wine region. The Tasters Guild is an international Wine tasting and Judging group and this will be mine and the Travel Professors third trip with them.
