Grannies on Safari @ Philly Travel Show: I Won an Antler Suitcase!

Hi gang,

The Philly Travel show was in town this weekend at the PA Convention Center in Philadelphia. I saw my favorite ladies and travel partners in my head, "Grannies on Safari." The Grannies were giving away 3 Antler suitcases and I won one of them. A sign from above that I must take a trip somewhere! Pic Regina Fraser (L), Monica Peters (m) and Pat Johnson (r)

Watch Pat and Regina give packing tips using their brand new Antler suitcase. Also catch the Grannies on Safari on Facebook!

This weekend I went to the Philadelphia Inquirer Travel Show and caught up with Regina Fraser and Pat Johnson. They talk about their upcoming travel show "Grannies on Safari" debuting May 2011 on PBS which features their international journeys around the globe. Check your local listings and be sure to watch!

They also give a tip about one of their favorite things: The SCOTTEVEST, a lightweight water, stain resistant travel vest that has 22 pockets.



Travel Expert Arthur Frommer talks about ditching the usual vacations and trying something new; like spending a week taking a summer course at Oxford University for "The Oxford Experience." The program is open to all adults and there are no entrance requirements. The fee is as little as $1500 which includes the course and housing! They even have a scout to wake you up each morning and that greets you with tea. Listen to Arthur break it down about Oxford and other universities that offer a similar program.
