Travel is One of My True Passions...Where's Your Favourite Place?

I have a confession, I have lied to you!  I do not want to take the "scarf" challenge...I don't have nearly as many scarves as hats and so the challenge would die pretty quickly.  So I have changed my challenge to one of my true passions...Travelling!  Although I have posted my travels in the past, I haven't really posted pics of all of my favourite places I have been.  That being said, I want to know where your favourite places are to travel too.  Please post your pictures of your favs here on my blog or you can upload them to the Belo Sol Swimwear Fan Page!  If you post I will do a draw for a $50 gift certificate for the next 4 weeks!  I will let you know by blog and status if you have been chosen! So please show me your travels!
I'm going to start with the place I just came back from:

Yes, you guessed it, Las Vegas.  I have visited Vegas five times now and this last time was a trip for my grandma.  She loves Vegas and so all of the girls in our family (we are missing some, however this is the group that went) took her so we could have a good time!

Every time I have visited Vegas it has been a different trip and I cherish every moment that I have had there!  Hanging at the Mirage Pool with Mike, Scott and Tara; Hiking in Red Rock Canyon (Breathtaking), Watching Green Bay Play at the Sporting House with Mike and alone; Hanging out with the family on Freemont Street and watching the Light Show...it's all fabulous!

Here's a tip for you too ( I will try to include this with every post, a little travel tip) make sure if you are a gambler (!) that you pick up a Player's Card from your hotel or the casino you are in!  You can go back to the Player's Club before you check out and see if they will give you Comps for your stay!  The more you play the less you pay...well sort of!  MGM properties are great for this...!

So start posting, I want to see what places you are passionate about and I want to give away some gift certificates!
Beijos,
Tricia

The Last Hat Blog...

Happy New Year everyone!
I hope you all had a fabulous holiday season and I wish an even better 2011!  Well since it's a New Year, I think its time to switch to a different challenge.  Although I will post my last hat pic today, I think I will move onto two challenges, the first challenge is to wear all of my scarves, pashminas and shawls over the next 30 days.  I know I don't have as many of those as hats, but the collection is definitely getting bigger over the past couple of months.  Oh and I was prescribed to keep my neck and shoulders covered by my new Doctor of Chinese Medicine, Dr. Tanya Hartz from "The Fire Within".  Apparently, I have a lot of wind running through my body, which is not a good thing and thus we must increase the scarf usage!  If you want contact details for Tanya, please send me an email or post a comment...she is awesome.
My second challenge is going to last more than 30 days, I am now embarking on a new body challenge with an end result possibly being a fitness competition.  I will keep you posted on this as well, though the pictures will probably only be of the scarves for now.
So here is my last hat pic, my straw fedora meant for the summer sun and golfing too!  I bought this one in Edmonton last summer and I love it.  Here I am golfing in Palm Springs on the 23rd of December!  Beautiful Jack Nicklaus course at PGA West...and the best part I shot the best round of my life!  Must of been the new driver Mike bought me for Christmas!

Beijos!
