The Return of the Tour! – In JAN 04 I travelled down to Middle-earth. The 18-day tour was fantastic. We had almost enough fun. J – In MAR 06 I led 3 Hobbits on a similar Tour of Middle-earth. Again, we all had a grand time, even if I did tear my rotator cuff. – The tours were organized by Jan Coyle, Pacific Pathways, http://www.pacificpathways.com/ . – Jan is now looking at organizing a “Reunion Tour” in 2010, tho the exact date is up in the air. Part of it depends on when The Hobbit is made. – I’ve suggested, we wrap The Tour around the Premiere of The Hobbit in Wellington. – Nothing is set yet, but if the idea of visiting Middle-earth [Beautiful New Zealand] is appealing to you, begin to put away your money. – Truth in advertising. This is NOT an inexpensive trip. However, it is a once [except for a few of us real nutcases] in a lifetime trip. Join a group of Hobbitheads/Ringers for 18 to 28 days [may throw in some general sightseeing as well]. Dressing up and being silly [well to the mundane world] is highly encouraged. – Interested? Drop Jan a note and tell her to put you on the mailing list. – Elen síla lúmenn’ omentielvo! Pippin, the wandering hobbit, Thain Peregrin Took II, Great Smials, Tookborough, The Shire
