A long-overdue team retreat took place at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, Georgia over Labor Day.
With over 2,500 acres of beautiful lakes, gardens and golf courses, there are lots of recreational activities to enjoy. However, the featured event over the holiday weekend was the Hot Air Balloon Festival.

Nearly the whole team was there, and it was a wonderful time to enjoy each other’s company, celebrate our growth, and plan for another banner year of helping our clients with great vacations.
Each of these ladies not only work super hard, they take personal pride in their role of making your vacation the best it can be.
What a fun way to take a break and celebrate each of their contributions!

The Best Road Trips in Each State
Now that fall is officially here, perhaps a road trip is in order.
Discover.com has put together the best road trip in each state, and thought this might provide some inspiration for State-side vacations between your Viking cruise journeys:

The Tales from Our Sails segment features Patti & John Jugenheimer of Del Webb Deaton Creek. Their travels are unique, in that they combine the convenience and comfort of Viking’s river or ocean cruises with a backpacking hike on the Camino de Santiago! They have an interesting journey as well as some great tips to share on how to travel light, so be sure to read their story.
Carol is a Viking Master Cruise Expert and Group Travel Specialist, and she loves getting people together to enjoy the intimacy and hospitality unique to small ship cruising.
Consequently, our clients benefit from the “inside information” we have as a result of the great relationships we have developed over the years. They don't have to call an 800-number hoping to get a knowledgeable professional to answer their questions, and are also on the “first-to-know” list for specials and bonuses, all while receiving the signature TLC we put into every trip.
Vacations are the highlight reels of the year, and each one needs to be truly memorable.
Great Vacations Matter, Because Great Memories Matter Most
