What we're about

It will bring a smile to your face as to all the Happy Hour, Dining experiences, #1 Social Events and Tours... starting with Mexican Riviera Cruise, Our Halloween Dance Cruise 1 of a kind experience and fun for all, Mediterranean Cruise to Italy, France & Greece..yes we climbed the acropolis and stayed on a post Greek Isle Villa stay in Mykonos and Santorini. Alaska Glaciers, Newport & Catalina Island 2 years in a row, Australia/New Zealand and exotic Tahiti Moorea Island stay...yes we snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef and stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel in Sydney Australia. Jetted off to a week in Bali Indonesia with stays at the Grand Hyatt Beach Resort and then an unforgettable stay in Ubud with Suites and $10 massages had by all daily. A claim to fame is the stay in Singapore at the Marina Bay Sands "from the famous movie Asians! Remarkable and thought of as #1 hotel in the world with a shape of an airplane skyscraper with negative edge pools and fabulous restaurants atop...10 day cruise Singapore-Thailand-Vietnam-Hong Kong. We overnighted a stay "off the cruise ship in Bangkok Thailand and toured buddhas highlighted with a special private dinner for group with Balianese dancers and a jewelry box delivered to each lucky person with dessert draws full of specialties.
For the most fussiest we were fortunate to travel on (2) European River Cruises "Danube" and the "Rhine" both absolute delights of scenic beauty and extraordinary sightseeing opportunities and gourmet dining. Pre Pandemic we also travelled to Scandinavia & Russia..had private guide in Russia and highlighted St Petersburg...a once in a lifetime experience.
Our very last trip pre-pandemic we travelled to Italy/Venice and embarked on a very exciting cruise repeating the world renown Greek Isles and Croatia. As if that was not enough...we took a private driver van with a stop in the lovely town of Verona and visited Juliet & Romeo and had lunch...We then travelled on to Milan and had private tickets reserved to see the "Last Supper" at the original Church with very high security in place. After 3 nights in Milan hopped a short train ride to Lake Como, Italy and stayed in a 5 star Villa reachable by boat only.
If this was the location to ever dream might have been our very last trip pre-pandemic...this would be it... A fun and glamorous time had by all taking ferries to all the famous stops along Lake Como but retreating back to our breathtaking 5 star villas.
We have had many flourishing Happy Hours hitting all the famous hot spots in the Scottsdale area and regulars at the Wrigley Mansion for sunsets.
All top Shows in Scottsdale...Barrett Jackson Auto Auction. Arabian Horse Show and the Phoenix Open Golf Championship was always a favorite overlooking the greens.
Holiday Potlucks were so blessed with over 100 at times for our valley wide famous Friendsgiving event with Fresh Flowers, Turkeys and all the fixings you can imagine. We always had atleast 12-20 tables all set and a dance floor to accompany outdoors with music by our member Ron. Halloween costumes, Cinco De Mayo, Christmas/Holidays were all the amazing potlucks thanks to you all.
May the friendships and memories always be good ones for all members.
As the Organizer my heart is always with you to have fun, make friends and we had offered the #1 Travel Buddy Match system as it was noticed at the 50+ mark peoples lives can change but their is a tremendous need to travel and explore life...
Bless all of you...We have made all efforts to offer the most upscale opportunities at the absolute lowest cost. The friendships speak for themselves and some have had dating experiences. 1 Couple met at our Phoenix Open Happy Hour and got married!
Travel has been temporarily put on hold due to the Pandemic as we have a travel - buddy matching system. We hope to see you all traveling the world again!
Hugs, Good Health & Wishes to all,
Charlotte Rose/Organizer/Friend/Member
