China!

I've been asked to post this important info about an amazing opportunity to go to China:
When: Monday, August 20th - Wednesday August 29th.
Where: Beijing, China
Food: All food is kosher and prepared fresh every day.
Shabbat: Observance of Shabbat is made easy and comfortable by the experienced guides. There are tfillot, kiddush, and challahs as well as three traditional meals.
Why should you take this trip?

What you'll see:
  • The Summer Palace
  • The Temple of Heaven
  • An Acrobatics show
  • The Cloissone Factory
  • The Great Wall of China
  • The Ming Tombs
  • A Foot Massage
  • A Kung Fu Show
  • The Lama Temple (Tibetan)
  • The Central Zoo (with Pandas)
  • Tienanmen Square
  • The Forbidden City
  • The Pearl Market
  • And LOADS of Shopping!
  • (Plus some extras along the way)
What you'll pay: $1450 per person, Single supplement $295
What's included: Flight, hotel, and all meals.
What's not included:
  • Travel and baggage insurance
  • Optional shows
  • Visas
  • Tips for local service personnel ($60)
  • Tips for Israeli guide ($2 per day per person suggested)
  • Fuel and other similar surcharges
This trip leaves from Israel. If you want to come from someplace else, the price without airfare is just $750 per person!!!!

Who do you call? Rona Michelson at +972-8-970-7684, or 08-972-7684 if you're in Israel.
When do you call? Anytime that isn't Shabbat in Israel.

Don't miss out! This may be the cheapest trip EVER to China. With the Beijing Olympics coming up, this deal will probably never be repeated!

It's nice you warn beforehand about the things which aren't included.. but... how come fuel isn't included? Why should the travelers care about the fuel?

Imagine this: the bus engine dies in the middle of nowhere, and then the bus driver says: "I'm out of fuel, everyone. Please hand your purses so I can buy some more".

Funny, it means the fuel surcharge for the flight.

Hey, what do you say we ditch the kids and go on vacation? Say, somewhere far, like to China? Sounds perfect!! :)

It really does sounds like quite a fascinating adventure your parents are putting together!
