Saturday, October 4 - Board Ship in New York, New York
Immerse yourself in New York City for five minutes, and you'll see why it's like no other place on earth. Only here will you find all of America's best attributes - the diversity, the culture, the style - intensified in such an intriguing way. If you're a first-time visitor, come see the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings, the Statue of Liberty, Rockefeller Center, Times Square, the Bronx Zoo, Staten Island Ferry, Brooklyn Bridge and all the other world-famous attractions. If you've been here before, there's always another neighborhood to explore, another restaurant to try, another Broadway show or museum to see; another don't-miss cultural performance or sporting event. In Brooklyn, you can enjoy taking a roller coaster ride, visiting the beach, seeing a dolphin show at Coney Island or exploring one of the world's best Egyptian collections at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. The Bronx has more parkland than any of the other boroughs, a renowned botanical garden, a world-famous zoo, stately mansions, historic sites, a "Little Italy", beaches and City Island, an island reminiscent of a New England fishing village. Don't forget to include a trip aboard the free Staten Island Ferry. The excursion from the tip of Manhattan cruises through New York Harbor past the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and Governors Island, allowing an unobstructed view of lower Manhattan. Visit the Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art, which is one of only two Himalayan-style, monastery buildings in the Western world, and the only one in the United States. The Chinese Scholar's Garden at the Staten Island Botanical Garden is the only authentic one of its kind in the country. Shoppers can discover it all in New York City--from bargain bazaars to luxury boutiques to major department stores and more. Discover the flavor of the five boroughs by choosing from a variety of world-famous New York City restaurants.

Friday, October 10 - Southampton, England
Southampton is a modern city rich in heritage from its time as a Roman seaport to today's modern, bustling, vibrant cosmopolitan city. The city is home to some of the region's best concert halls and venues, boasting three outstanding art galleries and two magnificent theatres. At the northern edge of the city centre is Southampton's cultural quarter, with the elegant art deco City Art Gallery, containing 3,500 works of art covering six centuries. Come and discover Southampton's Old Town, one of the gems of England. A place, with some unique features, that has played its part in the country's history and that, for diverse reasons, attracted the interest of William The Conqueror, Henry V, William Shakespeare, the Pilgrim Fathers, Isaac Watts and Jane Austen. Walk in their footsteps seeing buildings that span centuries of time, be captivated by the spell of very impressive medieval town walls that rival any to be found in England and wonder at The Bargate, one of the country's finest medieval town gates. Within a short distance of the Old Town is the waterfront, peaceful now with cruise ships and container vessels that are such a feature of Southampton, but once of vital importance for the D-Day landings. Solent Sky, with its wonderful display of historic aircraft, is nearby. When night falls, there are traditional and historic pubs and funky bars and music venues. Just a short trip from the port of Southampton, London is a fascinating city and a sightseer's dream. City tours visit the major attractions, including Big Ben and Parliament, Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral and the Strand. With a little planning, it's fairly easy to tour the city on your own.
