AWOL TRAVEL GROUP
Our Travel Group was inspired to share one another's travel experiences and tips.  Perched in front of the TV we view different ladies' photos or videos on the highlights they've captured.  As you will see in the photos below, we have some fantastic photographers in the group.  But first here are a few  pictures of our group of gals thus far, and would love to add to it.
Please note that this sub group is not active at this time.

Big Island Hawaii
Through Olivia Travels we had the luxury of exploring this beautiful island while staying at the highly recommended  Mauni Lani Resort.  The Island had deserts, lush rain forests, volcanoes, water falls, lush mountains to sandy beaches of white, black and green. This was a snorkeler's heaven, many colorful fish swimming among the vibrant corals and being greeted by the majestic Sea Turtles was definitely a highlight. 
The local people were so proud of their Big Island and were happy to share it with all through spiritual folklore, great hospitality and a big friendly smile.
A place you cannot just visit once.

We set sail on Holland America from the Old Port of Montreal.  Our first stop took us back in time to Old Quebec with a horse and buggy tour down cobble stone roads beautiful preserved architecture and the sounds of street performers outside of the breathtaking Chateau Frontenac. 
Our Second Stop was the quaint little island of P.E.I.   Red sandy beaches along the coast of this quiet setting and of course a trip to Anne of Green Gables.
Third port was Bar Harbor Maine were we enjoy a tasty lobster lunch after a morning of taking in the beautiful view from the top of the Acadia National Park Mountains.
Forth port we were greeted with a hero's welcome in Provincetown Ma.  Strolling the streets with interesting shops and the highlight of  Whale Watching experience WOW!  What better way to end they day than with a trip to the Lobster Pot for more Lobster.
Our last port was Boston -  The home of Harvard University, Mike's bakery that is lined up blocks down the street, Cheers Pub and eatery, a grand city to explore.

Valeeta's Journey Walking the Camino de Santiago Spain 
 The pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela began as an act of faith as Europeans crossed Spain to visit the sacred tomb of Saint James. One thousand years later, the Camino of the green rolling hills and small hamlets of northwestern  Spain attract many who take up this route as a form of spiritual path or retreat, for their spiritual growth.
