See Wonders of Iceland on Oakton Tour

Enjoy the dramatic contrasts of Iceland on an eight-day study/travel tour offered by the Annuitants Association at Oakton Community College. Led by Frank Fonsino, a retired professor of history, this tour departs on Sept. 4.

Visit the "Golden Circle," which includes Iceland's most renowned natural scenic wonders. Swim in the naturally warm waters of the famous Blue Lagoon, a geothermal pool located in the middle of a large lava field. Skaftafell National Park offers a view from the country's highest peak. Travel by boat to see graceful, floating icebergs, which serve as an introduction to Iceland's dramatic glaciers. Explore countless art galleries and museums in the capital city of Reykjavik, or take an optional whale-watching excursion.

For more information about this trip, the public is invited to a free informational session hosted by Collette Vacations at 6 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 21, in Room 1506 at Oakton's Des Plaines campus, 1600 E. Golf Road.

For more information, including costs and complete itineraries, call Bea Cornelissen at 847-635-1812.
