Submerged in Fun... I've been on a number of 'sober vacations' in my 20 years of sobriety and all of them were fabulous and exciting destinations -- cruises, Club Meds and great meetings. But my most recent ITL trip to Tahiti (March '08) rates #1 in my book. I don't know if it was the natural, pristine beauty of the islands or the friendliness of the natives and guides, but I have to say this was an experience that I will never forget. It could also be because I 'faced my fears' and did a couple of things I never dreamed I would do in this lifetime...I love snorkeling, but to become brave enough to snorkel with the rays and sharks as I did in Bora Bora (yes, in the water with a bevy of sharks surrounding me) is still mindblowing, and to also experience a 'Helmet Dive', walking on the ocean floor in Moorea and coming almost face to face with a moray eel staring right back at me! Thank you, Bob, for the umpteenth time for everything you do for us .. keep on keepin' on .. 'till we meet again. Peace and A.A. love.. Sandy C. Syracuse

SPECIAL TRIP... We are looking forward to our third cruise:  we are now addicted to In This Life!  We were novice cruisers when we went to Alaska, and you really made it a great experience.  Having someone show us the ropes and provide answers to my million questions was just what we needed to feel comfortable.  I really appreciate how accessible you both are when yet another question comes up….and you always have the answer.  Thanks sooooooo much for taking care of the details and making each trip special.  Jeanne and Mike San Jose CA

I NEVER WORE A TOGA BEFORE... The sightseeing,  shore excursions, and delicious cuisine were terrific. That was expected. However, Bob's personal touch truly made my cruise a GRAND MAYAN ADVENTURE, a vacation that I will fondly remember for the rest of my life!   I have never worn a toga nor snorkeled with manta rays before. Thanks Bob. You helped me to feel comfortable enough to enjoy myself, to try new things, to meet new people, to be adventurous in new places and to have fun. And I'll never forget smoking cigars on the aft deck with you after dinner, and discussing life. What a terrific experience!   And then there's Juan Carlos.... but we won't talk about him  :)   I will be going again. You can bet on it! Jean Seattle

I have been on 4 cruises with In This Life and everyone was wonderful. I like the fact that Bob travels with us and takes care of all the details, good and bad, leaving us just to have fun.  What has impressed me the most, though, is that Bob has booked  us a roommate, who signed up late and needed a cabin, on 2 separate trips. Bob has a knack for matching up people and both times it worked out great and we had a great time together. On the upcoming trip Bob is going to find a roommate for me. I have no worry about the details, since we're all there for the fun. Thanks Bob for being so good at your job. Elaine South Florida

Dear Bob & Julie: I've been on at least 5 In This Life cruises, and have had a wonderful time on each. I still love the lifeboat drill at the start of each cruise, and remember being told by the bus driver who took us to my first cruise that salt air shrinks your clothes. It wasn't until later that a grown up explained to me what he meant: we eat a lot on cruises, and it feels like your clothes are shrinking! Little did I know that the fun was just beginning! Seriously, though, I'm especially grateful for the encouragement you two have given this isolator to leave home and explore exotic places. Most important, however, is the quality of wonderful people who always turn up in your groups, and the really excellent roommates you have paired me with over the years. I've made some real life-long friends among the recovering people I have met thanks to you. We've had a LOT of fun, and are definitely not a glum lot! God bless. Kris Kensington, CA.

"The Asutralia trip was wonderful and as usual you were suberb in guiding us around with the emotional challenges of caring for people when they needed it.  You really are the only sober vacation Company I want to travel with.  Give yourselves a pat on the back." Marian Saratoga

"The australia trip was wonderful! I hope I can go with you again the next time you go." Peggy Campbell

"Bob and Julie, I appreciate the personal attention you give all of us on your trips.  There wasn't a time I felt unsupported. Thank you." Jackie San Jose

I love our trips with you.  I especially loved the Australia cruise because I got to know you and Julie much better, which was a delight.  The trip exceeded my expectations, which I'm grateful for. Jo King City, CA
