Sometimes a tour is made with the personalities of the group. Well, we had the best. Laughs, teasing, stories, caring and helping each other. Our leader,Carolyn, and driver, Tom, were wonderful. There were a few changes and a few uncertainties...handled by Carolyn so smoothly we hardly noticed. She is a great story teller with a very interesting life and 4,000 cousins. The people we met were so cheerful, and it makes a big difference. The places we went, the history we learned,the adventures we had ...so much in a short time, but not over done. I want to go back.Show more
