Below is a sampling of the trips currently available for registration:
Philadelphia Flower Show
The British have a word for something that's inventive, dazzling, and extraordinary. The word is "Brilliant!" In 2013, the Philadelphia Flower Show will glow with the majestic beauty and creative genius of Great Britain, and pay tribute to centuries of inspiring, influential culture - culminating in the urbane design of 21st-century London. Wear your comfortable shoes to the world's largest indoor flower show. It covers 33 acres. Your ticket gets you great gardens, floral showcases, and shopping. The Flower Show prepares for a British Invasion as the culture and horticulture of the United Kingdom takes center stage. Meals are on your own. Trip Date: Saturday, Mar. 9. Registration Deadline: Feb. 4 Trip Fee: $95 per person.
