Photo by Susan Mobley Trip to Great Britain set for summer Need a holiday gift idea that’s guaranteed to fit and delight? Consider the Brittania, an 11-day trip to Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England in June 2009. The trip is sponsored by Winder-Barrow High School English teachers Cheryl Sauls and Matt Perry, who have been leading summer trips to Europe for more than a decade. “I can’t imagine a more exciting gift than the gift of travel — a chance to see a part of the world you’ve never seen before,” said Sauls. In addition to a chance to kiss the Blarney Stone and listen to Irish music in Dublin, the trip will include a ferry across the Irish Sea to visit a castle in Wales. “From there, we’ll head up to Scotland and Edinburgh, which is always a favor ite with our students,” said Perry. The trip will end with a night train from Edinburgh to London. “We’ll visit both historic and cultural locations. We’ll also make time for things like shopping at Harrod’s,” says Mrs. Sauls. Trips are arranged through EF, the world’s largest stu dent travel company. “We’ve been very happy with their service; that’s why we’re repeat customers,” said Perry. However, the trips aren’t limited to WBHS students. “Community members are more than welcome to join us,” Perry said. “It’s a great way to travel with some ‘home folks.’” OUZTS Chevrolet Company Goodwrench Goodwrench Oil Change $ | p" +Tax Oil change with up to 5 qts. of GM Goodwrench quality oil, install an ACDELCO oil filter, complete chassis lube, check fluid levels, inspect belts, filters hoses and tire pressure.
