Temple Theatre
Presents...
Saturday, March 26, 2022
Always…Patsy Cline is more than a tribute to the legendary country singer who died tragically in a plane crash in 1963. The show is based on a true story about Cline’s friendship with Houston fan Louise Seger, who befriended the star in 1961, and continued a correspondence with Cline until her death. This heartwarming, musical play, complete with down home country humor and true emotion, includes many of Patsy’s unforgettable hits such as “Crazy,” “I Fall to Pieces,” “Sweet Dreams,” and “Walking After Midnight.” Always…Patsy Cline is based on a true story and features live music.

Amazing & Unforgettable Adventures in ICELAND
September 6-12, 2022
Iceland, "The Land of Fire and Ice," has quietly come into the spotlight to show the world what it’s been missing all these years: expansive underground ice caves, towering volcanoes, thermal baths and landscapes so convincingly lunar that even astronauts once trained there. We will witness unique - beautiful vistas as we travel throughout the country.
Day 1: We depart Charlotte this day on our journey to Iceland, where geysers burst, glaciers gleam, and volcanoes simmer above surreal lava fields.
Day 2: Reykjavik We meet our private transfer to Reykjavik. Upon arrival in Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland, we will enjoy a private city tour before checking into our hotel. Reykjavik is a colorful city with an interesting history and quirky side streets. All around it you can find hidden gems. Overnight in Reykjavik
Day 3: Golden Circle Your journey begins with the classic Golden Circle tour, the most famous sightseeing route in the Southern part of Iceland. Our first stop is at Thingvellir National Park, a unique place where nature meets with history. Next on the agenda is a visit at Gullfoss, the Golden Waterfall Geysir; home to many bubbling hot springs and geysers. One of them is the very active Strokkur. It throws up boiling water to a height of 131 ft. every 5-10 minutes. To add even more to this experience, your last stop of the day is at unique Kerid Volcanic Crater. The crater is made of a characteristic red volcanic rock that is 886 ft. wide and more than 180 ft deep. Overnight in Reykjavik, Breakfast included.
Day 4: South Coast Today we visit two magnificent waterfalls: Seljalandsfoss, a 206 ft tall, thin beauty that we can walk behind, and Skogafoss, a 196 ft roaring giant which is approachable. Next, we enjoy the breathtaking black sand at Reynisfjara Beach, Iceland’s southernmost point with magnificent sea caves. Then on to the Dyrholaey Peninsula, the southernmost point in the mainland, a must-visit place. You cannot miss the lighthouse, stone arch, the views of the black beach, and if our luck is right, puffins. Overnight at Fosshotel at Glacier Lagoon. Breakfast included.
Day 5: South Iceland Glacier Lagoon, which is one of the most amazing natural wonders of Iceland. When in Iceland it is and a "must" to get on a Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon boat tour, which we will experience. The lagoon is full of huge chunks of ice which crack off. Also, we will visit Hofskirkja Church, which is one of the last "turf churches" in Iceland. Built in 1884, the church is now preserved by the National Museum, but is still used by parishioners for worship. Fjadrargljufur is an astonishing place. A winding green gorge 328 ft. deep and over a mile long. It’s an extraordinary natural environment, deeply carpeted with fragile mosses. Overnight in Selfoss, Breakfast included.
Day 6: Reykjanes Peninsula Today we visit Geklingadalir Lava Fields. March 2021, a volcanic eruption started in the Geldingadalir Valley at the Fagradalsfjall Mountain on the Reykjanes Peninsula. The eruption is on-going, so the landscape in the valley and its surrounding area is constantly changing. After exploring Geldingadalir, our next stop is the hot springs at Gunnuhver, another colorful steaming hot spring that sends clouds of vapor billowing high into the sky. The last part of our tour is the most popular place of all in Iceland – the iconic Blue Lagoon. Here the milky sea waters contrast with black lava fields. Use of a towel, Silica Mud Mask and a drink of your choice are included in the Blue Lagoon comfort admission ticket. We overnight in Reykjavik. Breakfast included depending on flight time.
Day 7: This morning we are picked up from our hotel in Reykjavik for our flight home, carrying memories with us of the magnificent beauty of Iceland.
***Please be aware that the activity levels of this tour are rated easy to moderate. Also, a valid passport is REQUIRED for this trip.
I have worked diligently with bus operators, tour guides, land operators and airlines. The ground portion is complete and I am thrilled with it. We have our own private transportation, tour guide all to ourselves. It is much better than traveling on a 56 passenger bus full of other tourists.
I have been advised by the airline's group department not to book the air tickets at this time because schedules will change 6 to 8 times before September. I will be checking on airfare periodically.
INCLUDED: Cost for land tour covering transportation, hotel accommodations, admissions, highly rated English speaking tour guide, four breakfasts and possibly 1 lunch.
COST PER PERSON ROOMING DOUBLE: $1995. Traveling single? Call for price.
A DEPOSIT OF $250. PER PERSON IS NEEDED FOR RESERVATION AT LEAST 14 DAYS AFTER CALLING.
The cost of the land portion is fully refundable up until 45 days out before the tour.
We will have a small group personal tour by a land operator with a 5 star rating, the highest rating possible. Eighteen travelers is my limit so please understand should you call and I have 18 signed up I will have to put you on the wait list.
As a “stimulus” we will accept one piece of Majestic Money, per person (expired or not), to apply to final payment for this tour.

So, do you think you want to go? Book early!
We understand that it is often difficult to plan your vacation far in advance; however, we encourage you to make early reservations on all tours in order to guarantee that your tour is confirmed.
We must let hotels, theaters and other attractions know how many passengers are on our tours. Sometimes we must pay the admissions as early as six months in advance!
If we have not received enough bookings on a tour we are forced to cancel it or lose our deposits and payments. Such a situation is very disappointing to us, but also to those of you who may call for reservations one or two weeks before a trip is scheduled. The earlier our customers make their reservations, the less likely a tour will be to canceled.
