Hello mum,

host-mum has got as a gift at Christmas - a fishing rod. She has passed just the angler's licence, therefore, we have immediately gone fishing. The weather was miraculous. We went to the quarry pond of Eggenstein
Though we have caught nothing, but a lot of fun.

Particularly the sundown was wonderful! Have a look at this fabolous picture from the sunset.

I wish you a good slide the new year!


Love Viola

Just arrived to my new host! I really enjoyed the tour of my new artsy home. I can't wait to see what Miami has in store for me 

Today we went to the Vizcaya mansion! It is was designed in the Italian Renaissance style. They didn't allow photos of the plentiful rooms, their gorgeous ceilings, or the illuminated courtyard but we had lots of photo opportunities in the garden. It was a wonderful sunny day in very charming gardens. I can even imagine little stories in certain settings. 

ZOO MIAMI! I had so much fun with my friends. Our host took us there for Valentine's Day and there were plenty of couples with the same idea. I really enjoyed discovering new animals and seeing some old favorites. 

A common day in Miami! Some gardening, the park, then a cafe followed by relaxing in the backyard admiring the sunset by the lake, and a concert by the Cleveland Orchestra with some public art behind the Arsht Center for the Performing Arts.

BEACH DAY! I loved the Art Deco architecture in Ocean Drive. Being a beach bum was so much fun. The water was very cold and wavy for the locals but the sun was just right. Sadly the sun doesn't set on the coast of Miami so I could complete my mission  Still it was great to live the Miami life like in the movies.

Today we went to my host's favorite organic stand on Krome (farming area on the edges of Miami) then we picked our own sunflowers, strawberries and tomatoes in a U-Pick. It was really cool and really delicious!

I'M IN NEW YORK!!! My host will be attending school in NYC and she took us with her on a week long visit. First we toured Columbia University and its sister school Barnard College. Then we expanded to the church of St. John the Divine with its beautiful garden and The Metropolitan Museum of Art (I took pictures with my favorites). Finally we went to Times Square and Central Station. I enjoyed it very much! NYC is very diverse and history collides everywhere. It was a wonderful trip.

I have arrived! What a long journey! I received a very warm welcome from the other toy voyagers, they are all so nice and have been to some pretty amazing places. A chicken named Huhn has also arrived at the same time. We had some tiramisu gelato a tiramisu cup cake from the shop next door and tea from Finland to celebrate our safe arrival. I can't wait to explore! I also got to meet some very nice cats! So soft and warm, I want to sleep on them.

Nice cat! His name is Toad, he is very soft and mellow. He doesn't bite or scratch and is very patient and loving.

YEAH!!!

Today I arrived at home!

I was 18 month on tour!

It was a lot of fun but the last months were sad for me  ...

But now I'm soooooooo happy that I'm at home!


Bye,
Viola

Holiday!

We make a week holiday near the city of Luebeck!



8 hours with 2 hours traffic jam later we have arrived in our holiday home.

It's already dark and we are so tired!

My first day in Lindow.
Lindow is  a  tiny village in the northwest from Mecklenburg Western Pomerania.
The city of Luebeck are 15 km from here.

This is our holiday home (where the door is open).
It's a thatched cottage from 1875!
I think it's beautiful!



But I had a hard time.
I'm here only to relax.

So… NO photos please  !

I had a wonderful time with my family and the other TV's.

I feel like a new!

But now I'm ready to travel further!
I say goodbye to my friends.


Mom promise me that my next host are very kind to me and reliable is.


Bye,
Viola

Hello Mum,

I arrived in Sülfeld. Dicker Kumpel gave me a warm welcome.



Then  he introduced me to his other guests.



Today the weather was nice, so RikeH and I took a walk through Sülfeld.

This is the old church.



The church was not open, so we looked at the information in front of it and I saw something from inside.





There is an old pharmacy opposite the church.



Later I found the old school of Sülfeld.



This is another beautiful house.



Look – I found the emblem of Sülfeld.



RikeH had nice flowers at home – I loved these!





Yours
Viola
