PROGRAM TOPICS

The purpose of these lectures is to teach appropriate, comprehensive, compassionate family focused and culturally competent medical care for patients with developmental behavioral and educational challenges. Through disease state education, physicians will feel more comfortable with the presenting conditions and will be able to incorporate evidenced based care, medical treatments and “caring” for those with these conditions such as Autism Spectrum Disorder in children and adults and ADHD. Children with developmental disabilities represent a diverse population with a variety of causes, a variety of conditions and a wide range of developmental, behavioral, and medical manifestations. The care of children with developmental disabilities, therefore, requires an appreciation of the complexities of diagnosis, and management involving medical care, promotion of optimal development and education, and attention to social, emotional, environmental and economic factors that influence the children, the family and the community. This series of lectures will provide for the audience a framework for understanding the complex set of conditions characterized as developmental disabilities. In addition, there will be an orientation to the genetic and environmental factors that result in developmental disabilities and we will offer strategies for addressing these challenges to promote optimal health and well being for the children. Topics:

Environmental Influences on Fetal Growth and Development
- Prenatal factors - important to appreciate the vulnerability of the fetus to prenatal influences and exposures
Children's Environmental Health
- Children are uniquely vulnerable to environmental factors - need to appreciate and understand both positive and negative

PORTS OF CALL

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

Two travelers laughing on the iconic Spanish Steps in Rome as a flock of pigeons takes flight around them. This historic 18th-century landmark is a must-see shore excursion for cruise passengers visiting the Eternal City from Civitavecchia.

Civitavecchia serves as the maritime gateway to Rome, and it's essential to approach a day here with a clear and realistic plan. The 'Eternal City' is a 60- to 90-minute journey from the port, a commute that requires factoring travel time into your precious hours ashore. The most common and efficient method is the regional train, which connects Civitavecchia's station (a short walk or shuttle from the port) with Rome's key transit hubs. For those seeking more comfort and a direct route to specific sites, pre-booked private transfers are an excellent, albeit more costly, alternative.

With time being the most valuable currency, a successful day in Rome means choosing a focus. Attempting to conquer everything results in a frantic blur. We recommend choosing one of two paths. The first is a deep dive into Ancient Rome: pre-book tickets to explore the staggering scale of the Colosseum, walk through the ruins of the Roman Forum where emperors once stood, and marvel at the architectural genius of the Pantheon. This area is largely walkable and provides a cohesive historical narrative.

Alternatively, focus on the grandeur of Vatican City. Stand in the embrace of Bernini's colonnades in St. Peter's Square and enter the breathtaking St. Peter's Basilica, a monument to faith and art. A visit to the Vatican Museums to see the Sistine Chapel is possible, but requires strict, timed-entry tickets and a significant time commitment that will likely preclude other sightseeing.

Whichever path you choose, build in moments for the simple Roman pleasures that give the city its soul. Find a small piazza, order a quick espresso at a bar, toss a coin in the Trevi Fountain, or savor a scoop of authentic gelato. For those who prefer to avoid the journey altogether, Civitavecchia itself offers a pleasant waterfront, a bustling market, and the impressive Forte Michelangelo, providing a relaxed, local Italian experience.

At Sea - Cruising

Olympia (Katakolon), Greece

Katakolon is a small, pleasant port town whose primary purpose is to serve as the gateway to one of the most significant sites of the ancient world: Olympia. A 30-40 minute journey inland brings you to the birthplace of the Olympic Games, a sprawling archaeological park where you can walk in the literal footsteps of the first athletes.

The site itself is a stirring landscape of fallen columns and foundational stones. Key highlights include the ruins of the massive Temple of Zeus, once home to a wondrous statue that was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the Temple of Hera, where the Olympic flame is still lit for the modern games. The most evocative experience is standing on the starting line of the original stadium, a simple packed-earth track where history feels palpably close.

Adjacent to the ruins, the Archaeological Museum of Olympia is essential. It is not a minor provincial gallery but a world-class institution housing masterpieces of Greek sculpture, including the breathtaking Hermes of Praxiteles and the pediments from the Temple of Zeus.

After immersing yourself in antiquity, the town of Katakolon offers a gentle return to the present. Its waterfront is lined with cafes and tavernas, perfect for a quiet moment with a coffee or a glass of local wine, reflecting on the history you’ve just witnessed before returning to your ship.

Mykonos, Greece

Mykonos serves as the archetype of the Cyclades: blinding white cubic architecture set against the deep blue Aegean. While the island’s reputation rests on its glitzy nightlife, the daytime experience offers a distinct, sophisticated charm if navigated correctly. Your priority should be the labyrinthine Chora (Mykonos Town). We advise disembarking early to beat the midday crush. The winding, whitewashed streets were originally designed to confuse pirates; today, they offer a delightful aimlessness. Allow yourself to wander off the busy Matoyianni Street to discover quieter corners, hidden chapels, and bougainvillea-draped balconies where the island’s authentic character remains.

Navigate toward the waterfront to witness the iconic Kato Mili (windmills) standing sentinel on the hill. Just below lies Little Venice, where medieval houses with colorful balconies hover directly over the sea. It is the prime location for a coffee or cocktail, though be prepared for premium pricing that reflects the world-class view.

For our clients with a deep interest in history, Mykonos is the gateway to something far more significant: Delos. A short ferry ride away, this UNESCO World Heritage site is the mythological birthplace of Apollo and Artemis and one of the most important archaeological sites in the Mediterranean. If you prioritize ancient history over high-end shopping, a guided excursion here is non-negotiable.

If a beach day is preferred, manage your expectations regarding crowds and cost. The famous Paradise Beach is high-energy; for a more refined, family-friendly atmosphere, Ornos or Platis Gialos are superior choices, accessible via local bus or water taxi. Finally, a logistical note: if your ship docks at the New Port (Tourlos) rather than tendering, the local SeaBus is the most efficient transfer to the town center, bypassing the often-gridlocked taxi queues.

Athens (Piraeus), Greece

A panoramic view of the ancient Acropolis of Athens, Greece, rising above a lush canopy of green trees. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a premier shore excursion destination for cruise passengers docking in the nearby port of Piraeus.

Let’s be direct: your arrival at the port of Piraeus is purely functional. It’s a massive, bustling commercial hub, and its primary virtue is its proximity to Athens, the cradle of Western civilization. A day here is an incredible opportunity, but it requires a smart plan.

Your first priority is getting into the city center efficiently. The metro (Green Line 1 from Piraeus station) is a direct and affordable option that bypasses all traffic. Taxis are plentiful, but be sure to agree on a fare or insist on using the meter to avoid surprises. Once in Athens, the Acropolis is the day's non-negotiable centerpiece. Seeing the Parthenon preside over the city is a profound experience that connects you directly to 2,500 years of history, philosophy, and art. We strongly advise pre-booking your tickets online to save precious time you’d otherwise spend in a queue under the Greek sun.

After descending from the Acropolis, the modern Acropolis Museum awaits at its base. This stunningly designed space provides essential context for what you’ve just seen, housing the original artifacts in a climate-controlled, brilliantly curated environment. From there, immerse yourself in the Plaka, the city’s oldest neighborhood. This labyrinth of cobblestone streets, draped in bougainvillea, is where you’ll find the true Athenian spirit. It’s the perfect place to find a traditional taverna for a leisurely lunch of classic Greek dishes.

Our best advice for a port day in Athens is to be strategic. Don’t try to see everything. Focus on the Acropolis, its museum, and a wonderful meal in the Plaka. By doing so, you will have experienced the profound essence of the city, rather than just rushing past its landmarks. Wear comfortable shoes, stay hydrated, and prepare for an unforgettable immersion into the foundations of our world.

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey

While Kusadasi serves as a pleasant, modern resort town, its primary significance for the traveler is its role as the gateway to Ephesus. This is not merely a collection of ruins; it is one of the best-preserved ancient metropolises in the Mediterranean, rivaling Pompeii in its ability to transport visitors back to the height of the Roman Empire. The site is vast, anchored by the iconic Library of Celsus and the Great Theatre, which once seated 25,000 spectators. Walking the marble Curetes Street allows you to trace the actual grooves left by ancient chariots.

For a truly immersive experience, we strongly advise securing tickets to the Terrace Houses. Located within the archaeological site but often requiring a separate entrance fee, these covered excavations reveal the domestic lives of the Ephesian elite. The preserved frescoes and intricate mosaics here offer an intimate counterpoint to the monumental public buildings outside and are well worth the extra cost.

From a practical standpoint, Ephesus demands preparation. The site offers very little shade, and the white marble reflects the intense summer heat. High-quality walking shoes are essential due to uneven, slippery surfaces. Beyond the ancient city, the House of the Virgin Mary offers a quiet, spiritual experience in the hills above, while the Basilica of St. John in nearby Selçuk provides further historical context.

Upon returning to the port, Kusadasi itself offers a functional, if commercial, conclusion to the day. The Grand Bazaar is famous for leather goods and Turkish rugs, though the sales tactics can be aggressive. For a more relaxed end to your visit, bypass the high-pressure shops for a seat along the waterfront promenade to enjoy a strong Turkish coffee and baklava while overlooking the Aegean.

Santorini, Greece

Santorini delivers the visual drama promised by travel brochures, with whitewashed villages spilling down the sides of a massive volcanic caldera. It is spectacular, but it is also one of the most logistically challenging ports in the Mediterranean. Understanding the arrival process is critical to enjoying your day. Ships anchor in the caldera, tendering passengers to a small dock at the base of the cliffs. From there, you face a bottleneck: a low-capacity cable car, a grueling 600-step climb, or donkeys (which we generally discourage due to animal welfare and sanitary concerns).

To maximize your time and minimize frustration, we strongly recommend arranging a boat transfer to Oia or a pre-booked excursion that includes transportation from the tender pier. This strategy bypasses the initial cable car queue, which can consume hours of your morning. Once you have ascended, the island offers distinct experiences. Oia, on the northern tip, is the famous "postcard" village with blue-domed churches and marble streets. It is undeniably beautiful but frequently overwhelmed by crowds; visit early or late if possible. Fira, the capital, offers similar views with more bustle, museums, and shopping, serving as the central hub for the return descent.

For a reprieve from the congestion, the archaeological site of Akrotiri offers a world-class window into the Bronze Age, preserved under volcanic ash. Alternatively, the island’s viticulture is unique; vines are basket-woven low to the ground to survive the wind. Visiting a local estate to taste crisp, volcanic Assyrtiko wine provides a sophisticated, relaxing counterpoint to the busy towns. Santorini is a destination that rewards preparation; with the logistics managed, the views are truly unparalleled.

Messina, Sicily

Messina serves as the bustling gateway to eastern Sicily’s most celebrated treasures, offering a compelling choice between iconic excursions and authentic city life. For many, the primary draw is Taormina, a stunning hilltop town that lives up to its reputation. Its Greco-Roman theater offers one of the world's great views, framing the Ionian Sea and the often snow-capped peak of Mount Etna. Beyond the theater, Taormina’s charm unfolds along the Corso Umberto, a pedestrian-only street lined with chic boutiques, cafes, and hidden courtyards leading to breathtaking coastal overlooks.

For a more elemental experience, an excursion to Mount Etna reveals the raw power of Europe's most active volcano. Ascending its slopes, the landscape transforms into a stark, lunar-like environment of black lava rock and volcanic craters. Wineries thriving in the fertile, mineral-rich soil on the volcano's lower flanks offer tastings that provide a literal taste of the terroir.

However, Messina itself should not be overlooked. It presents a grittier, more workaday Sicilian reality. The city’s heart is the Piazza del Duomo, home to a magnificent Norman cathedral and the world's largest astronomical clock. Be sure to arrive just before noon to witness the captivating spectacle as its gilded bronze figures animate to tell stories from the city’s history. A short walk from the port, you can savor classic Sicilian street food like arancini or a refreshing granita, experiencing a slice of local life far from the polish of Taormina. Messina offers a genuine crossroads: choose world-famous beauty or stay for a taste of an authentic port city.

Barcelona, Spain

Visit one of the vibrant markets in Barcelona and see the abundance of ripe fruit, beautiful flowers and savory foodstuffs.

While your cruise may have concluded, disembarking in Barcelona offers a rare opportunity to transition from a passenger to a true explorer. We strongly advise against rushing directly to El Prat Airport. Barcelona is not merely a logistical hub; it is one of Europe’s most visually and culturally distinct cities, defined by fierce Catalan identity, architectural daring, and a culinary scene that rivals any in the world. Extending your stay by two or three days allows you to decompress and engage with the city on your own terms, free from the ship's schedule.

To help you navigate this sprawling metropolis efficiently, we have curated a post-cruise itinerary that balances the absolute must-sees with the atmospheric wandering that makes Barcelona so special.

**Day 1: The Gothic Core & Picasso**

After transferring from the port to your hotel—we recommend the Eixample district for Art Nouveau elegance or the Gothic Quarter for historic immersion—start where the city began: the Barri Gòtic. This is a neighborhood best explored without a map. Wander the labyrinth of medieval streets, eventually finding the Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia (La Seu). Unlike the famous Sagrada Família, this is a classic Gothic masterpiece with a stunning cloister inhabited by 13 white geese.

In the afternoon, cross Via Laietana into the El Born district. This area feels more bohemian and houses the Picasso Museum. Housed across five medieval stone palaces, the museum focuses heavily on Picasso’s formative years, offering context to his genius that you won't find elsewhere. For dinner, embrace the local rhythm. Dinner is late here (9:00 PM or later). Spend the evening hopping between tapas bars in El Born or Barceloneta. Look for *pintxos* bars (Basque-style tapas on bread), where you help yourself and pay based on the number of toothpicks left on your plate.

**Day 2: The Architecture of Antoni Gaudí**

Barcelona is synonymous with Antoni Gaudí, and seeing his work requires strategy. His unfinished masterpiece, La Sagrada Família, is the city's most visited site. **Critical Advice:** You must book tickets online weeks in advance for a specific entry time. Walk-up tickets are virtually non-existent. The interior, a forest of stone columns bathed in light from stained glass, is a spiritual and architectural marvel that justifies the hype.

Afterward, head to Passeig de Gràcia. This broad boulevard is home to high-end shopping and two more Gaudí icons: Casa Batlló and Casa Milà (La Pedrera). Even if you do not tour the interiors, the exteriors are essential viewing. If you have the energy, end your day at Park Güell. Located further uptown, this garden complex offers whimsical mosaics and sweeping views of the city and sea. Like the basilica, advance booking here is mandatory to enter the Monumental Zone.

**Day 3: Montjuïc Art or Mountain Retreats**

If you have a third day, choose your own adventure. For art and views, take the funicular up Montjuïc Hill. Here you will find the Fundació Joan Miró and the palatial Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (MNAC), which holds an incredible collection of Romanesque frescoes. The views from the museum steps at sunset are spectacular.

Alternatively, for a complete change of pace, take the train from Plaça d'Espanya to Montserrat (approx. 1 hour). This Benedictine monk mountain retreat, nestled in serrated rock formations, offers superb hiking and the chance to see the Black Madonna. It is a profound contrast to the bustle of the city.

**Logistics & Departure**

**From Ship to City:** The cruise terminals at Moll Adossat are about 2km from the bottom of La Rambla. Walking with luggage is not recommended due to the bridge length and heat. A taxi is the most direct option (approx. €30-€40 to the center). The 'Cruise Bus' (Portbus) is a budget-friendly shuttle that drops you at the Columbus Monument, where you can catch a taxi or metro.

**Getting Around:** Barcelona is very walkable, but the Metro is clean, safe, and efficient for longer distances. Be aware that pickpocketing is a genuine issue in tourist hubs (La Rambla, Metro stations); keep wallets in front pockets and bags zipped.

**To the Airport:** When departing, the Aerobus is an excellent service running from Plaça de Catalunya to both T1 and T2 every 5-10 minutes. Taxis are also plentiful and offer a fixed rate or metered fare depending on luggage.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
Your parent or child requires hospitalization
You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
Ongoing medical monitoring
Payment guarantee
Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

Missed connecting flights
Lost/stolen travel documents
Pre-trip information
Prescription replacements
