This has been a fantastic year! We want to thank everyone for supporting our cruise  websites.  This year, Patricia had the opportunity to go on a volunteer trip to India and Thailand.

Her journey began in India, where she traveled with Dental Global Relief to a remote  village called Ladakh.  There, a team of dental and non-dental volunteers reunited to provide oral health care to hundreds of impoverished kids.

After volunteering  in India, Patricia was able to fly to Chiang Mai in Thailand, where she visited and had the opportunity to volunteer at Elephant Nature Park.  The park provides a home for orphaned elephants that have  been abused as working animals and also is a home for rescued  buffalos, dogs, cats, birds and many other rescued animals. While there, she was able to support and provide love and care to the  elephants.

Being able to bring a smile to underserved people in other countries and to bring love and care to rescued elephants is the most gratifying experience.

Thank you again. We wish you all a Blessed and Happy New Year!

Here are some photos of Patricia’s trip to India and a short video of volunteering with the elephants.
