    Ladies Spa Weekend Getaway - July 27-30, 2023

    I hope many of you will be excited about the return of the Ladies Spa Weekend this summer! After much research, I've found there are very few affordable spa trip options in Florida. The Trump National Doral which we have visited and loved for many years no longer offers Spa Packages. Their 3 night room rate for late July is $1452.36! And that doesn't include any spa services. So the club is proposing that we return to the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort & Spa in Ponte Vedra. The Sawgrass Marriott also no longer has Spa Packages but will give us a discounted room rate if we can fill 10 rooms with 20 ladies. Then each lady will contact the beautiful adjoining spa to purchase and schedule their own spa services. There are 19 treatment rooms located there and Spa fitness classes are offered daily. They also have an exclusive beach shuttle service that runs to their private Cabana Beach Club just 1.8 miles away. Breakfast would be included in your stay. The price for the rooms would be $650 per person for 3 nights and $455 for 2 nights. This rate includes the resort fees and all taxes.

    Here is a link to the spa so you can look at the services offered: https://na.globalspa.marriott.com/jaxsw/25616962/offering.

    If you are interested, please email me at fscjeannie@gmail.com.

    Thanks, Jeannie

    Explore France

    September 7-21, 2023

    Our flight brings us into Geneva, where we will travel by bus to beautiful Chamonix.  While there enjoy hiking, exploring and the beautiful scenery.  There will be two day trips, one to Annecy and another to Lake Geneva.  Next we are on to Clermont-Ferrand, a hidden gem in France.  The city is a center for lovers of architecture, museums, wine and renowned cheeses. Here we will have a guided tour, including a visit to a volcano.  Our next town is Amboise.  With its grand château and medieval old town peppered with half-timbered buildings and ancient wine cellars, Amboise is the quintessential Loire Valley town. If you need more convincing—this is where Leonardo da Vinci chose to spend his final years.  In Amboise we will have tours of castles as well as wine sampling.  We will finish our trip in Bayeux.  Bayeux boasts a stunning historic centre as well as its world-famous, UNESCO-listed tapestry depicting the Norman conquest of England in 1066. The city had the good fortune to be swiftly liberated by the Allies in June 1944, but its war museum and cemeteries recall the sacrifices made in these parts.  2 guided tours are included while in this town.  We depart from Paris.

    • Round trip airfare (price TBD), Orlando to Geneva.  Paris to Orlando
