Day 3 in Tokyo - FUN DAY!!

It was so hard to narrow my pictures down from this morning's excursion to Digital Labs Borderless ! I can't wait to go back and see their other installation called Planets - we just ran out of time, trying to fit everything in! Loved this place - the rooms are constantly changing - so you don't even have to move and with in minutes your immersed in another world! So cool !! loved it!!

After 2.75 hours in Borderless we dashed over to our Sumo lunch show. This was highly recommended by my girlfriend Meagan, who was recently there, and I am so glad she told us  to do!! Again tons of Fun, the lunch was super yummy and you could have as much as you wanted, I had seconds !! Bosco got picked to be one of 8 competitors to take on the wrestlers - he was pumped!! Sadly he didn't win his match, but gave it an enthusiastic try!

After Sumo we went for a walk in the area near Senso - Ji Temple and ran into Theresa, Riley & Gavin. They taught us how to do our fortunes at the Temple; and Riley was looking to upgrade his from Bad to Good. You tie Bad fortunes to wire racks so they blow away!

IN THE AIR - literally and for real

By Pat Patrick • November 4, 2026
October has been a bit of a blur! My last post from Thailand , was about medical treatment and I'm happy to report all good; pathology negative and I'm healing nicely. What I haven't posted about, is what has been going on in the background of my fantastic voyage around the world . You have probably already seen a lot of news coverage and social media post and sorry I have done none. I have been busy weighing options, the logistics ( visas ugh! ) and gathering my things: organizing, weighing, purging, repacking, weighing again and flying. Below is my attempt of the short version, from my point of view and a map of area (and my quick stops) for reference.

Pattaya, Thailand - My healthcare

By Pat Patrick • October 23, 2026
This Blog is more than a journal of my travels around the world, it's a major memory tool for me in documenting all the events along the way. You often ask me how we take care of medical things, as we travel non stop and today is a perfect example. A fellow resident had posted on one of our WhatsApp groups ( this is the main way we all- residents, crew and stateside support all communicate ) that she had an excellent contact for anyone looking to get medical appointments in the Pattaya / Bangkok area.

Off the Coast of PATTAYA, THAILAND

Off the coast of Pattaya, Thailand a talented and dedicated group of residents, the Odyssey Troubadours , performed A Night of Broadway for the enjoyment of all the other residents and senior staff on board. The group of 20 performed, 15 Broadway songs that had some special Odyssey edits, personalizing them to our journey. We loved it ! Such a clever, talented and fun loving group. I was upfront and focused on getting candid pictures of the talented cast.
