tours are on the website, www.positiveconnections.org.

group on the same tours, then Paul, the travel agent,
can possibly make arrangements for special guides.

Aboard we will have many social gatherings including;
a one-hour cocktail party, group photograph, hot-tub
party and farewell talent show. Each night we will
dine together in a sit down restaurant. After dinner,
we can watch a revue in the cabaret lounge, listen to
live music in piano bar, play the slots or dance till
dawn in the disco. Support groups will be available to
support one another. You will meet many new people and
possibly meet your significant other. A renowned
medical doctor will be with us, so you can learn about
the latest accomplishments in HIV/AIDS
medical-treatments.
