Hi dad!

Today I've arrived at Vreni's home, but there were some problems :(

Can you imagine: The Postwoman put me in Vreni's little mailbox, so she couldn't get me out of there and it was so cold and dark in there :'(

Vreni had to cut me out of the mailbox with her scissors, so the box, in which I was transported, got broken...

But don't worry dad, I'm fine and it's really warm in Vreni's living room <3

Now I'll meet some other toys :)
You'll hear from me later :)

Do you also have a Advent wreath? Vreni has a really big one, so I can sit in the middle :D

Hi dad,

today I've visited the capital city of Upper Austria, called Linz. It's a very old city, established from the romans and called Lentia. If you want to know more about, just google :P

Here on this photo you can see me in front of a few old houses, now it's a shopping street :)

I've also stood in front of the "Dreifaltigkeitssäule", it's really big...

...and I've visited the christmas market in Linz, but there's no snow until yet :'(

I've been for a bit of a wander around outside, have sat in a very very old gum tree, had a look at the view, met Gingy one of my hosts rabbits, and watched the sun set.
I'm a bit tired now so its off to bed for me, tomorrow we have a few errands to run so I will be popping in with more stories and photos then. NIGHT NIGHT  :)

Today we did a little driving and I got to drive the Jeep with my host Jill's daughters visiting TV Joshy. We went passed some beautiful green Lucerne farms, drove down the main street of Tamworth, checked out what was happening at the local club for new years eve, did a little after Christmas sale shopping and then it was time for lunch, vegetarian pizza! Yummo

It has been very hot here in Kootingal so we really haven't been doing very much at all, today it was 34 degrees which is 93.2 degrees Fahrenheit.
I've been resting in the cool, eating lots of watermelon and drinking lots of black currant juice-its delicious.
The weather looks like its going to be hot all week!!

As we were driving down Jill's street we saw a kangaroo on the side of the road, there are lots of kangaroos in the area, they are not friendly like the ones in wildlife parks, so  I stayed in the car  :D

I had to climb up very high to see the view from the Moonbi lookout, you can just see me on the very top! It was an amazing view.
