Hi everyone! I'm on the road again! Was in Toronto 2 weeks ago. Last week - New York. Going to Thunder Bay in July. And off to Montreal in August!!!! I love my life....... Like many of you (I think), I was always under the impression that New York was just one big sea of cement, buildings, high-rises, hi-ways, etc. Well, not so! As you will see from my pictures, there are many gorgeous areas just on the out-skirts of New York City. While it is very exciting to be in the heart of downtown, for sure, it is also very [View Full Entry]

Hi everyone! It's been a while..........but I'm back. This time, coming to you from Los Angeles where I was in Marina del Rey attending an incredible "Marketing and Mindset Breakthrough" workshop. Amazing opportunity. It's been 5 years since I was in Los Angeles and I thought it would be appropriate to share some of the journey with you, as well as to give you a 'heads up' with respect to the next World Tour I am taking. The workshop in LA was attended by 150 solo-preneurs, from around the world. You KNOW how I love to meet people from around the [View Full Entry]

And this is it! The final blog for the World Tour - Northern Hemisphere, 2007! What an adventure. You've read some of the comments from some of the passengers. I believe I can honestly say that this trip changes lives! We have been on camels, elephants, planes, tuks, feluccas, dhows, dune buggies, water taxis, buses, (and more buses!), and horse-drawn carts. We have walked, climbed, sat, eaten, had a few drinks, danced, shopped, talked, visited, and danced some more. We have had long days and short days. We have had adventures in Nairobi and free time in Dubai. We have seen [View Full Entry]

At the Blue Lagoon(Well, this is my SECOND attempt to send the COMPLETE blog entry on the Blue Lagoon.......am having technical difficulties this morning! There should be 34 photos showing, and changes in some of the text.......but that's not what I'm getting........so I'll add more later today so you get the full story 'cause they're too good to miss! My apologies for this.) Good morning, everyone! Well, my body clock is totally confused..........went to bed at 7:30 last night; up and at 'em at 4:30 this morning! It will take a few days to get oriented again. Tons of snow fell [View Full Entry]

(Well, this is my SECOND attempt to send the COMPLETE blog entry on the Blue Lagoon.......am having technical difficulties this morning!) Good morning, everyone! Well, my body clock is totally confused..........went to bed at 7:30 last night; up and at 'em at 4:30 this morning! It will take a few days to get oriented again. Tons of snow fell in London, Ontario yesterday. Guess I"ll be out shovelling later this morning..........the ride home from the airport on Sunday night was a "white knuckle" affair. I was the only person in the airport shuttle and was glad that I wasn't doing the [View Full Entry]

Hi folks…here’s a twist…this is Brenda (leader of the Blue Group) writing the blog entry not Pat. Why, you ask? Because I’m writing on behalf of all of you…to thank Pat for this incredible BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hurray and many thanks to our ‘Fearless Blogger Extraordinaire’: PAT Pat has been tireless over the past twenty-eight days, bonding with people, sharing her sense of humor and fun, leading her Green Group - and frequently the rest of us too - and still finding time to create this incredible blog. Everyone loves her…how [View Full Entry]

Greetings from beautiful Iceland! (even though I am writing this on Saturday evening, I am quite certain it won't get sent out till at least Monday, when I am back home) We arrived yesterday (Friday), mid-afternoon. As I mentioned earlier, it was a blustery, windy afternoon in Iceland. I could have used more hairspray, had I known what was awaiting us outside the airport terminal! The views of Iceland from the airplane were so interesting. I got a few good shots. We should have anticipated the fierce winds because we could see huge white caps on the waves below! We were [View Full Entry]

Hi everyone, Greetings from Iceland, actually! We landed this afternoon. I didn't have time to finish the Prague blog until now. But, let me get to THE most important news today (it's Friday, Nov. 30th)........it's my Mom's 85th birthday! Happy Birthday to you, Mom (that would be Helen Fortin, resident at The Carrington Retirement Residence in Trenton, Ontario). I am sending you lots of birthday wishes, hugs and kisses from Iceland! Can't wait to see you (soon) and share the stories of my world tour adventures! Ok, so on to Prague. It's Day 2 and we are back on the bus, [View Full Entry]

Hi everyone, The last blog was getting to be too long (especially with all the photos), so I thought that Egypt deserved a 2-part blog! During the day in Luxor, we returned to the hotel to enjoy a lunch on a Felucca; we sailed along the Nile and it was most enjoyable (yes, even I enjoyed lunch on a sailboat! Art, I was thinking that YOU should rightfully have been the one here, instead of me! But I did enjoy a glass of wine and toasted you!) I am getting quite good at being "on water"; who knew??????? Later that evening, [View Full Entry]

Hi everyone! Well, I'm just about caught up on the blogs! Whew!!!! It's now Thursday afternoon and I have about an hour before a quick bite to eat and then off to the Slovak Philarmonic! We arrived in Prague on Tuesday evening. We flew at night, which is a rare thing on this tour, but I did manage to catch the phenomenal sunset from the plane (actually, Susan took the picture for me! Thanks, Susan!). We got into the airport and were met by a group of familiar, and happy, faces......the local tour guides (Renate and team). They are so efficient [View Full Entry]
