Hi, Everyone!



I just wanted to pass some  info on to you about our cruise, an to personally 
invite you to join  us.



Thank you, and take care!



Ren'ee  Rentmeester

Creator/Executive Producer

"Traveling Without  Trouble" TV Show





For Immediate Release        



NEW TRAVEL TV  SHOW  FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES WILL TAPE ITS FIRST PROGRAM 
ON A   CARIBBEAN CRUISE OCTOBER, 2009



“Traveling Without Trouble”---  from the producers of “Cooking Without 
Looking,” The First TV Show for People  Who Are Blind/Visually Impaired, will tape 
its first episode aboard the  Emerald Princess Oct. 11-18, 2009, it was 
announced by Vision World  Foundation, parent company of the two TV shows.



The cruise, a  fundraiser event for the Society for Accessible Travel & 
Hospitality and  other organizations, will travel from Fort Lauderdale, FL to 
Princess Cays,  Bahamas; St. Maarten; St. Thomas; and Grand Turk.



Cruise  passengers will have the opportunity to be a part of the LIVE 
audience for  both “Traveling Without Trouble” and “Cooking Without Looking,” now 
entering  its third season.



“This cruise is truly going to be a thrill  for us all,” says Ren’ee 
Rentmeester, Creator/Executive Producer of both  shows.  “Imagine how exciting it 
will be for cruise passengers to enjoy  the relaxing tropical breezes of the 
Caribbean aboard the elegant Emerald  Princess, and also participate in a LIVE 
taping of a brand new TV show as well  as a TV cooking show.  It almost leaves 
you  breathless.”



After two years of working to create “Traveling  Without Trouble,” a TV show 
for people with special challenges who love to  travel, Ren’ee found the 
perfect team of Away U Go Travel and Pisa Brothers  Travel, both of New York, and 
Princess Cruise Lines in California. “The  extreme professionalism of these 
organizations helped us to smoothly navigate  the waters of this truly special 
event,” says Ren’ee.



“On each  show, we will feature people with different challenges; i.e., 
blindness,  hearing impairment, physical disabilities or multiple sclerosis, or who 
are  required to take special medications such as insulin,” says Ren’ee. “
Then, we  will tape them in various travel scenarios, and find out how they 
overcome  their challenges, thereby offering travel solutions for all our viewers.”
  



Future shows will be taped in airports, trains, amusement  parks, and on 
public transportation, to name a few.



“Cooking  Without Looking” will also be taped onboard the Emerald Princess 
cruise with  hosts Celia Chacon, Sabrina Deaton, Allen Preston and Annette 
Watkins, all of  whom are blind or visually impaired.  Several blind audience 
members will  be invited to cook with the hosts during a taping which will air at 
a later  date.  Sighted cruisers who want to participate in the cooking will 
be  blindfolded.



“This show is going into its third season on PBS  in South Florida, and is 
popular among sighted, as well as blind and low  vision people,” says Ren’ee.  “
Food and cooking have no  boundaries.”



Nova Southeastern School of Optometry underwrites  “Cooking Without Looking”.



With all the excitement of the TV  show tapings, the fundraising cruise still 
starts at only $594. There is a $50  shipboard credit for early booking, and 
exclusive shipboard amenities will  also be offered, including a “Night of 
Light,” a fundraising cocktail party to  bring disabilities out of the darkness, 
and to have our guests savor the  inspiration we gain from each other, 
disabled or  not.
