What we’re about

This is a group for all ladies over 50 who find themselves wanting to meet new and make new friends for travel, movies, game nights, and wine on the porch nights. No matter your background or current status, this group will be designed to support and lift us up as women in transition (life, marriage, family, sexuality, location, children, parents... doesn't matter!) Let's keep each other company and laugh more often. The events will be focused on getting to know one another, doing new things, and getting out of our comfort zones. Dues are $5.00 per YEAR

Please note: I am not a 'tour coordinator'.... we can plan on dinner together each evening but your days will be yours to plan. Of course, some of us may enjoy doing things together but generally speaking - I will not be planning and coordinating anything. The beauty of a cruise is that there are dozens of things you can do on any given day. If you want to explore side trips in the port cities - check out Viator.com or plan to book through the excursion office of the cruise line.
