Informed
Traveller Newsletter - June 20, 2008
We just returned from our group cruise to Alaska where
a great time was had by all. Cruising is a great experience - unpack
once and visit destinations all over the world at very affordable prices.
If you are thinking about doing an Alaska
cruise from Vancouver return, do contact us, as we still have lots
of good value cruising in August and September. Just let us know the dates
you are looking at and we will quote you the best available rates for a
cruise.
We also want to remind people that in this age of
ongoing fuel surcharges, if you are planning on travelling anywhere over the
next few months, please book early and therefore, avoid these increased
costs. Call us for all your travel needs.

Something to Make You Smile and
Ponder |
What's wrong with the medical profession these days?....
This fellow walks into the
psychiatrist's office with a zucchini up his nose, a cucumber in his
left ear, and a breadstick in his right ear.
He says "What's wrong with me?"
The psychiatrist replies, "You're not eating properly."
**************************
Then there was the lady who came out of a complicated abdominal surgery
complaining of having a bump on her head and a terrible headache.
The nurse fearing the woman might be suffering from some post-operative
shock, spoke to the surgeon about it.
The doctor assured the nurse," don't worry about a thing. She really
does have a bump on her head. About halfway into the operation we ran
out of anaesthetic."
"B" is for belladona - How
did the plant, "belladonna" get this name?
The plant got this name because
ladies once used the extract to enlarge the pupils of their eyes, and so
make them beautiful. Belladonna is Italian for "beautiful
lady".
