Where is Sylvia?
I hope everyone had a safe and Happy Fourth of July.
We
just returned from a two week trip to South America. The first week
was a cruise to the Galapagos Islands. We travelled with our dear
friends The Segalls and their family. I was certainly out of my
comfort zone waking up too early, putting on a wetsuit and snorkeling,
something I hadn’t done for years. It was certainly worth it - to swim
with the Sea Lions and to get up close and personal in their natural
habitat. They seemed to welcome our presence. So did other
inhabitants of the beautiful islands such as the Blue footed Booby
birds, albatrosses, frigatebirds, giant Galapagos tortoises, iguanas
and the many other incredible birds and animals.
The
second week was a little more exerting to say the least. We hiked the
fabulous Machu Picchu Inca Ruins. It was both spiritual and majestic
and a challenge to climb. We were lucky to have a knowledgeable guide
that gave us great insight into the Inca world.
I will be posting our travel pictures on the web to share with all of you.
During
this week, besides getting ready for our next travel adventure, I am
going into the studio to finish recording the last four songs of the
new project. It is yet to be named but it is sure to put a smile on
your face when you listen to it. It is funny that every time I work on
a project, I feel like it is the best one I have done so far. Well,
this one in no exception. I think that this project will transcend
everything I have done so far. I am so excited that I want to tell you
more about it but I have to contain myself and not let the cat out of
the bag yet. All I can say is that my multi-award winning long-time
producer, Hal S. Batt, has outdone himself with this project.
The
next four months my husband and I travel to the West Coast staying
mainly in the Carmel, California area. On Sunday, we are going to kick
it off by traveling to Vancouver and then taking an Alaskan cruise on
Wednesday to celebrate my dear friend Marla’s special birthday. We
return to Vancouver on the 22 and then travel to the Alberta Rockies in
Canada. When you receive the next newsletter, we will be traveling to
Glacier National Park before we arrive in Carmel.
