October Recap
Last month our first Tuesday breakfast meeting featured Joana Ball of LUXGO Travel who spoke on “The Power of Travel.” Joana discussed how travel has proven to improve your well-being and personal growth while creating lifelong memories for you and your loved ones. She also shared some remarkable ways to experience the world, such as rail journeys like the Venice Simplon Orient-Express; exploring hotels with a story like the Fairmont Château Lake Louise in Canada; experiencing comfort in the wild at the Peace Lodge in Costa Rica.
Joana is a world travel expert originally from Hamburg, Germany. LUXGO is a boutique agency in Dana Point providing custom domestic and international vacations as well as family and group travel curated to your personal tastes.
Then, at our second breakfast meeting, we heard from Assemblywoman Laurie Davies, who provided an update on the latest bills and proposals in Sacramento. Originally from Wisconsin and a former mayor of Laguna Niguel, Assemblywoman Davies spoke on key topics impacting our region, highlighting her legislative focus on public safety, vocational and trade school education, obtaining funding to correct coastal erosion problems, defending Proposition 13, and streamlining state certification processes online. Following that, we also heard a short presentation from Capistrano Unified School District candidate Marco Carralero.
Oktoberfest—Great Food, Drinks, Music, and Dance
In between our regular meetings, we hosted our Annual Oktoberfest Celebration on October 10 in the Clubhouse. Everyone had a great time enjoying grilled German bratwurst, potato salad, sauerkraut, pretzels, German beer, wine, dancing, and fantastic music provided by Linda Herman and her accordion.
