Participant Feedback

“

I just wanted to let you know that our tour was wonderful. In a word, it was "MAGICAL". There was so much more to it than the itinerary we received. Geraldine was so knowledgeable about your country and even US history. She made sure we were all safe and knew where we were going and how long we would be there. We could not have asked for more. The classes were very good and I learned some knitting stitches that I have not tried before. I especially enjoyed the island. It was something I had wanted to do for a long time. All the instructors were good. We had one person who was not familiar with a lot of the techniques and all the instructors were more than helpful and very patient with her. You put a lot into the tour and I really appreciate all the work - Thanks again for arranging such a great trip, Ruth Mollack
