Globetrotters Meeting Texas Branch – 9 November 2002 by Emily
We had two groups of speakers at our meeting, both on Spain. The first group
was Chris and Julie who displayed some fabulous slides of different areas of
Spain: Toledo, Madrid, Balboa and San Sebastian.
Our next group of speakers on Spain was Christina and Susan. They spoke
mostly about their recent experience at a language school. This school, based
in a restored village, is specifically for Spanish professionals to practice
their conversational English. They also spoke about their sightseeing
adventures in Madrid after they finished a ten day course helping the Spaniards
with their spoken English.
Next, each member and visitor spoke about recent trips and future hopes for
trips. Upon closing, a suggestion was made to bring ethnic holiday foods to the
December meeting, although this is contingent on the approval of the library
where our meetings are held.
The next Texas meeting will be held on Saturday
8th December.
A reminder that Texas meetings will start one hour earlier, at 2pm and not
3pm.
Meetings are held at 2pm at the New Braunfels Public Library, 700 E. Common
Street in New Braunfels, Texas. The meeting ends at 5 p.m. If you would like to
continue travel talk on a more informal basis, we plan to adjourn to the
Hoity-Toit, a local New Braunfels establishment. If anybody would like to
enquire about meetings or help Christina, please contact her on: texas@globetrotters.co.uk
