that sounds expensive but awesome!! im working up until march and then im going on a 3 week tour around europe, then gonna come back home before flying to LA around the 9th! im so excited, scared though!
Im just doing the grand southern, new york explorer and north by north east all straight after each other. Fly outta US same day north by north east finishes. I wanna go do europe in march 2010, hopefully i have money by then to do that 2. My brother went to mexico not with contiki but he really liked it.
I'm Sarah, 23, from Sydney. I am also just about to book this tour! It sounds great. I am also planning to stay at the Best Western (Contiki) accomodation for 2 nights prior to the tour starting and also staying for another 3 nights in NY after, hopefully also in the Marrakech Hotel where I plan to hop on and off the sightseeing bus around town for the next 3 days or so at my leisure. After this I am thinking of heading up to Boston (either by train or bus??) for 3 nights to have a look around before flying back to LA then home to Sydney.
I'm also interested in meeting up before the tour in Anaheim should it fit in with people's plans and also to hang around in NY with anyone else who would like to explore!!

I'm Mark from Brisbane, Australia. I'm 26 and will be traveling solo on the Grand Southern 14th May and also the Grand Northern 12 June. I have traveled a far bit in the past but these will be my first contiki trips - yay!
I arrive at contiki hotel in Anaheim on the 11th May and it would be great to catch up with a few of you before the trip.
I can't seem to find the facebook group but my email is m_viney@hotmail.com if someone wants to add me.
I'm also spending the 8, 9, 10 and 11 of June in NY before I head off on the grand northern if anyone is keen to see the sights together.
To all those that cannot find the facebook site. Go to the search section in facebook and type in "grand southern may 2009" it should come up straight away.

Hey Ash. I arrive in LA on the 9th. Spending a few days in Santa Monica before heading to anaheim on the 11th. Don't really have any plans yet. Wat about you?
