 If
you are coming to the Pacific Northwest for PICMET '01, why not take a
vacation while you are here? PICMET has designated Joan Sher at GK Ltd.
Travel of Portland, Oregon, as the official travel agent for the
conference. She will help you plan any aspect of your trip, including
airline reservations, car rentals, pre- and post-conference trips, and
tours while in Portland. The list of things to see and do in the Northwest
is endless. Do you like to golf? Perhaps a trip to the resort city of Bend
in the high desert of Central Oregon would be the place for you to relax
and enjoy incredible views of the Cascade Mountains while golfing on one
of 20 courses in the area. Or spend a few days at the Oregon Coast where
you can whale watch, visit the end of the Oregon Trail, or just sit on the
sand and enjoy breath- taking scenery. Southern Oregon offers the Tony
award-winning Oregon Shakespeare Festival in the quaint town of Ashland.
Between shows you can jet boat or raft down the scenic Rogue and Klamath
Rivers. Wine connoisseurs would enjoy a visit to Oregon's wine country
south of Portland in the Willamette Valley. If you would like to venture a
little further, Las Vegas, Reno, San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver, and
Victoria, B.C., are all easily accessible from Portland. These are just a
few examples of the many exciting adventures you could have while you are
in the area. Joan will arrange special and personalized trips for you upon
request. Joan Sher, CTC can be contacted by phone (1-800-284-4180 or
1-503-635-7766), fax (503-635-7781), or e-mail (Joangktvl@aol.com).
