What to expect on trip day

From the reminder the day before to the ride home. Questions any time: call or text (661) 965-4353.

1. The day before

   You get a reminder by email, and by text if you asked for texts. It says the pickup time and place, who is driving and which vehicle is coming.

2. Pickup time

   Please be ready 10 minutes before pickup. Eugene texts when he is on the way. Up to 15 minutes of waiting at pickup is included.

3. Getting in

   Eugene brings a step stool and offers a hand at the door. Take your time. Walkers and folding wheelchairs ride along; tell us when you book so they have room.

4. On the road

   Everyone wears a seat belt. On longer trips we stop for a restroom break about every two hours, and lunch stops are part of the plan you agree to.

5. At each stop

   At every stop, Eugene tells the group when and where to meet. If someone is not back on time, he calls the trip organizer, and the group decides together how long to wait.

6. What to bring

   Your medications, a water bottle, a light jacket (vans and museums can be cool), your phone, and ID for airports and cruise ships.

7. Luggage

   In the van, each rider may bring one large suitcase and one carry-on. Cruise and airport groups: tell us how many bags when you book, because 13 riders' luggage fills the van. Walkers and folding wheelchairs ride along.

8. Service animals

   Service animals are always welcome. Please mention one when you book so we can plan the space.

9. Airport pickups

   Airports let drivers stop at the curb only for a moment, so it works like this: text Eugene when you have your bags, he tells you which door to walk out of, and he pulls up as you come out. Up to 60 minutes after landing is included, and he watches for flight delays.

10. Cruise days

    We drop you at the terminal's passenger drop-off with your bags. Coming home, we confirm the meeting place the day before your ship returns.

11. Walking

    Most of our outings involve some walking at the destination. Each trip idea lists how much, so the organizer can pick days that suit the group.
