Hello Everyone,
	I am up to my usual travel plans.... this time I would like to invite all 
of you to enjoy them with me.  I am organizing a post ISAC XX cruise in the 
South of France.  After our meeting in Montpellier, we will travel to 
Chalon-sur-Saone, near Lyon, and on May 26 board the brand new MS Viking 
Rhone, a 150 passenger River Cruise Boat, and cruise leisurely down the 
Rhone for 7 days.  We will enjoy a wine road tour in Burgundy and Beaune 
regions, see Macon and have city tours of Lyon, Vienne, and Tournon, where 
we will have a steam train excursion to Ardeche, see Viviers, tour the city 
of Avignon, with excursions to Les Baux, Arles, and Camargue and end our 
cruise in Marseilles.  Post cruise extension is also available to Nice, 
where you will enjoy 3 nights in a Superior First Class hotel with 
breakfasts, city tours of Nice, and Monte Carlo and transfers to the 
airport, if you choose the flights included option.  Trip includes RT to 
France, transfers to and from the ship, 8 day - 7 night cruise, all meals 
aboard ship, and 7 guided shore excursions.  An option is also available 
without flights.  This new ship will only accommodate 150 and if we act 
fast, we can reserve most of the ship for ourselves - having a fabulous 
extension to our meeting!  Three categories of room are available, main, 
middle, and upper deck, and room rates vary according to which category 
accommodations you choose.  Early booking allows you a 5% discount and 
deposit of $400 / person must be received by Sept 15, 1999 to secure this 
discount.  Deposits are refundable up to 120 days prior to departure with a 
$100 processing fee.  Check the table below for costs.  If you are 
interested, don't hesitate to make your reservation by emailing me at 
suedemag@uci.edu.  Check the website at www.cruisepages.com for reservation

adventure!  Join us an relax after the exciting meeting in Montpellier - a 
full week on the Rhone - and end your wonderful trip to France on the 
Riviera!
