[email protected] | 978-356-5163 December 2017 Dear Friends and Fellow Travelers, I am very pleased to present to you our tour schedule for 2018. We are looking forward to our 24th year offering small group gourmet tours of Europe. Did I just say 24 years? Can I be that old? They tell me I turned 66 this year, but I think there must be some mistake! Something must be done about allowing the years to speed by at such a reckless pace! Actually, I have some very encouraging news: I heard a story on the radio about a theory regarding the effects of travel on one's perception of time. Scientists have discovered that travel really does slow down your impression of the passage of time. Don’t you find that when you are traveling for two weeks, you feel like you've been gone for two months? And when you return home and jump back into your routine, two weeks fly by as though they were hours.
