SAN ANTONIO TRIP TO SEE WICKED

Four Seasons agents had a great time last weekend escorting a group to San Antonio to attend a live performance of WICKED.
I have always loved watching live performances but this one certainly has to be one of the best I’ve seen.It is a story about the two witches from The Wizard Of Oz movie living in Oz before Dorothy dropped in. Remember Glenda The Good Witch and The Wicked Witch Of The West?
Before I saw this play I speculated on the many different scenarios that might be played out. I have to tell you that none of my scenarios even came close!
I will not tell you the story because I do not want to ruin it for anyone who wants to see it. There is no doubt that if you ever get the chance to see this play it is most definitely worth it.
FOUR SEASONS TRAVEL HAS DISCOUNT TICKETS TO NEW YORK BROADWAY AND OFF BROADWAY PLAYS AS WELL AS LONDON THEATER PACKAGES.

Over the past few years the US government has changed the passport requirements for US citizens traveling abroad. Because of these changes there has been much confusion.
If you look at the websites that are intended to explain the new requirements it is like reading a foreign language! NO WONDER EVERYONE IS CONFUSED! If you do not believe me take a look at www.getyouhome.gov or www.travel.state.gov.I think everybody understands that if you travel by AIR outside of the United States or a U.S. owned Province such as the U.S. Virgin Islands you absolutely must have a passport for re-entry into the United States.If you travel by LAND OR SEA you must have a passport OR the appropriate documents; there are a couple of documents you may use in place of a passport depending on the specific circumstances.Land crossing means you are driving or taking a train across the border. Sea crossing means you are taking a cruise ship or other vessel by water.If you are taking a cruise and are leaving and returning to the same US port you may use a CERTIFIED BIRTH CERTIFICATE along with a GOVERNMENT ISSUED photo I.D. such as a driver’s license or state issued I.D. card. You may also get a passport card. A passport card is NOT valid for international air travel. The above documents may also be used for re-entry into the United States if you are driving or taking a train across the border into Canada or Mexico.With all of this being said I would still HIGHLY RECOMMEND that anyone traveling outside of the United States get a passport. While travel can be a most rewarding experience it can also at times be a challenge.Two years ago I took a Wine theme cruise out of Galveston with 10 other girlfriends for a fun long weekend. Less than 24 hours into this 4-day cruise I received a call from home that my husband had just had a heart attack! He was fine but my point in telling this story is that if I had not had a passport I would NOT have been able to disembark the ship in Cozumel and fly home.Life is full of uncertainties so in my opinion it is simply best to be prepared.Add unique content
