LOUIS, SEATTLE, WASHINGTON DC (IAD) Depart from your gateway airport on a wide-bodied jet for London, England. You’ll be flying overnight with your escort and other All Americans and families and will be able to enjoy dinner, beverages and on-board entertainment. Hopefully, you’ll also manage to sleep a little before breakfast and touching down at one of London’s major airports. WEDNESDAY30 DEC: LONDON/WINDSOR DECEMBER 26, 2009 TO JANUARY 2, 2010 PARADE SIGN-UP SUNDAY27 DEC: LONDON Today’s full-day guided tour will take you out of the capital towards the west, to one of England’s greatest and most historic cities— WINDSOR. This city has been home to a Royal Palace for over 900 years. Although still used by the Royal Family, parts of the Palace are open to the public, and during your visit you will be able to see some of the chapels, the State Apartments and even Queen Mary’s Doll House—all within the castle walls. Upon your return to London, you will be dining at the hotel before heading off again for your special nighttime DISCO CRUISE along the river Thames. As you dance the night away, your floating discotheque will be passing by some of London’s most magnificent illuminated buildings. Don’t forget your camera! CHECKLIST I I I I I I I I I I Before you send in your packet check the following carefully! Have you applied for your passport? Have you signed ALL forms? Has your parent or guardian signed your forms? Have you completed the reservation form? Have you completed the Uniform Sheet? Have you completed the Rules of Conduct sheet? Have you completed the Medical Release Waiver? Have you included a Deposit for EACH PERSON attending? Do you have passport photo page copies for each person attending or applied for your passport? Have you included payment? Once off the aircraft, you’ll pass through customs and immigration before being met by a London Parade Festival Representative. You will then be making the short journey into Central London by luxury motor coach to your top London hotel. You may be tired but try to stay awake, as there will be all kinds of interesting “British” things to look at during the journey. Once at the hotel, you’ll be checking into your room, attending an orientation meeting, during which you’ll be finding out all about the week ahead, and time permitting, adventuring out into London in your escort groups. Your dinner this evening will be served in one of the hotel’s banqueting rooms. Early night tonight, to help fend off the jet lag and prepare you for a fantastic week. THURSDAY31 DEC: LONDON Today you will have another chance of exploring London in smaller escorted groups. Again, you may wish to use your tube ticket to get to the Tate Gallery or perhaps to COVENT GARDEN—one of the “hippest” places in town. Check in your special London Parade Welcome Pack for details of many more places of interest. Again, dinner will be taken on an independent voucher basis, at any of the Pizza Hut, Beefeater or TGI Friday establishments in Central London. Upon your return to the hotel, it will be time to freshen up and get your glad rags on as tonight you’ll be off celebrating New Year’s Eve at a WEST END SHOW in the heart of London’s Theaterland. Ring in the New Year before turning in for the night as it’s the Big Day tomorrow. Happy New Year.
