[gps-talkusers] Re: thinking about WayFun 2009

Hi Mike,
I was in Auckland New Zealand just a week before you introduced the New Zealand
maps.  While the air fare certainly is an financial issue, the 67 cents on the
dollar exchange rate helped offset some of the costs.  The seven of us rented a
house that had just accommodated a volley ball team, so it can work well.

Happy holidays to all our WayFun friends and families.

We have a great tradition of WayFun trips, starting in 2003 in Volcano, Ireland
and Scotland in 2004, Maine in 2005, Napa Valley in
2006 and British Columbia in 2007.

My concept of the West England walking tour kind of fizzled in 2008. 
Only Bob and Sue Sweetman did the trip. Clearly, initiating small groups was not
something anyone wanted to do.

I have the "last minute travel" concept I have not given up on yet but for now,
we will give some thought to another group adventure in 2009. Please send us
your feedback either on the WayFun or GPS-Talk lists.

I will start the discussion by mentioning our top locations from previous
emails.
Alaska seems to be of great interest. It is on the expensive side and it also
would tend to be a very organized trip as opposed to the more random approach we
have favored in our other trips.

Italy and Spain have also been of great interest. With our friends at Code
Factory in the Barcelona area, Spain would be a good pick.

We haven't mentioned New Zealand in the past because  we didn't have maps. Now
we do and it would be an amazing place to explore. Because of the reverse
seasons, we would have to go between December and March to have good weather. It
would also be on the expensive side although I thought of seeing if we could do
family stays rather than staying in hotels in order to reduce the overall cost
and to give more of a local experience. I have been there numerous times and it
is a fascinating and beautiful country.

We have also kicked around locations in the heartland of the U.S. and I am sure
there are some great locations. If anyone has a favorite, let me know.

So, as you make your plans and resolutions for 2009, think about a WayFun
adventure.

Mike
