Many thanks to Derek Smith for his presentation at our September 2025 meeting, where he gave us a fascinating look at “The Art of The Day Trip.”
During his travels, Derek has opportunistically found ways to collect new TCC countries & territories … “just for one day!’\”
He has done over 30 such “one day” destination/visits over time, which is amazing.
Chronicled “one day visits” in his presentation included:
- Montserrat from Antigua
- Northern Cyprus from Antalya Turkey
- Curaçao from Aruba
- Fujairah from Dubai
- Johor Bahru Malaysia from Singapore
- Belgrade Serbia from Vienna
- Mystique from St Lucia
- Paraguay from Iguazu Falls
- Spanish Morocco from Tangier
- Haiti from Turks & Caicos
- Srpska from Bosnia Herzegovina
Bob Bracht joined his wife Marnie as a TCC Gold member with 200 countries and territories, and he was warmly congratulated by our in-person & Zoom members in attendance.
Our next meeting is Saturday, Nov. 29, with details to follow.
Warm regards,
Rick Shaver
TCC Canada Chapter Coordinator
