I put out there that we are working on a photo workshop to Cuba and have had tremendous response. So we are working on it...... !!! Also Ecuador…

Prices are quoted in $$US - AND ARE A GREAT DEAL!! It includes tuition (but not art supplies), lodging in lovely colonial style hotels, hearty breakfasts each morning, all ground transport and some pretty interesting cultural experiences.

** HELP WITH AIRFARE

Obviously, the bad economy is a huge drag - but the upside is there are some great deals on airfare. I booked our July '09 air for a better price than I've ever gotten in my 15 years !! You fly into Guatemala City (GUA) and we'll pick you up at the airport, no matter when you arrive. The first date listed for the workshop is your travel day.

I got that great rate ($356 RT MSP-GUA) because I had just plugged our preferred travel dates into www.farecompare.com www.farecompare.com and voila,,next day I got an email saying price had dropped by $150 so I jumped on it. I also really like www.cheapair.com www.cheapair.com

I wonder if I can get these guys to pay me for advertising for them!

David Wells, one of our photo instructors likes www.Kayak.com - other places to try are: www.Cheaptickets.com and Spirit Airlines www.spiritair.com , or sign up for www.tripadvisor.com or www.airfarewatchdog.com and see what you can find.

GOOD LUCK AND HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON IN GUATEMALA !!
