Nice NICE Meeting again...

... which was well attended considering it's so close to Christmas and all are so busy. NICE is the Northern Illinois Chapter of Elderhostel and all who have ever attended an Elderhostel program (or would like to) are invited to join us on the 2nd Saturday of every even numbered month. Go to our website for info.




... and the attendees were rewarded by 3 presentations of trips. John was first, with narrated movies of his travels in Turkey and Greece on an Elderhostel program entitled "Discovering the Jewels of the Mediterranean: Athens to Istanbul." Then Bob reported on his program at Hawaii's Volcanoes National Park with another wonderful slideshow of photos he took of volcanoes, lava, a hike through a lava tube, steam from lava entering the sea, and more. Finally, Bill and Jenny recounted their trip to Thailand and Cambodia, replete with magnificent photos and firsthand info on the culture and religion of the land. Below is a photo of Bill, Bob, and John.



The next meeting is on February 14th, 2009, and more inspiring travel programs will be presented.
