101st Visit To Maui

Diane and I will be visiting Maui, Hawaii for our 101st time. We always love the warm sunny weather and the white sand beaches. Add the zip lines, Haleakala wilderness hikes, a
visit to the Tedeschi Winery, finding Charles Lindbergh's grave in Hana and visiting a shrine to the "George Washington" of China and our perfect trip to Maui begins. Mahalo, Doug

Summer finally arrived in Oregon so Walker Travel will be closed Saturday and Sunday until after Labor Day. September 10 and 11 will be the next weekend open dates.

Why do travelers need a travel agent? Diane and I toured the Golden Princess ship in Seattle last Saturday. Because I was wearing a blue blazer I guess a cruiser asked me for directs to Cabin #312. They had gone on line to book a cabin next to their best friends traveling in cabin #312. I informed them their cabin was on the “other side” of the ship.

Oh they said, we should have used a travel agent to book our sailing.

Bon Voyage, Doug and Diane
