Alkmaar, the Netherlands - 29th April 2008
By: Eryah
Hello everyone!
My friend Woezel and i decided to go on trail because we wanna spread joy and happiness all over the world.
We are caracters from a story for children here in Holland.
The woman who brings us to life is Guusje Nederhorst. For many years Guusje played in a soap called "Goede tijden slechte tijden'' (good times bad times).
In 2002 she discovered her real passion: writing stories for children. That was the beginning of Woezel and Pip. Two inseparable dogs who experience funny and sometimes naughty adventures.
The little novels are a big hit here in Holland.
Unfortunally Guusje never had the change to see how many children enjoy the adventures of Woezel and Pip. She got breast cancer and died in 2004. Her husband set up the Guusje Nederhorst foundation as a memory for her creative, headstrong and brave personality.
You can imagine this is a great opportunity for me to have a lot more adventures. Woezel and i decided to each go our own way. When we come home we can tell each other our adventures. How great is that!
Here we are at home and talk to the TV's who are visiting Eva right now. It was great to hear their stories!
Here we are sitting in the book closet. Eva has many stories for children so it's always a pleasure to be here and read those novels.
And this is me (left one) and Woezel (right one).
I can't wait to start my journey!
Big hugs Pip (and Woezel)

Hamburg, Germany - 8th May 2008
By: Mondfalke
Hello!
I finally arrived at my first destination. I am very excited what I can see and do in Hamburg in the next days.
I had a quiet journey although such an envelope is not very comfortable. I arrived in the morning but I had to wait for Jenny to arrive from university in the afternoon. But then she immediatedly took me out and the little things I brought with me!
I hadn't really time to look around until these two ran towards e to say hello. Its Moomin and Sonea and they seem to be very kind! I am missing Woezel a bit because I am not used to be without him but I think I can make a lot of new friends during my travels and tell him when we meet again!
Jenny says that the weather in Hamburg is really brilliant right now and that it would be perfect for going sightseeing!
Now I will take a rest and get some sleep...
Bye,
Pip

Hamburg, Germany - 16th May 2008

Hello!
Today another TV arrived at Jenny's place! It was very exciting for me because I haven't met another TV on my travel until now.
So I waited excitedly until Jenny finally opened the envelope.
And then Claire comes out and I greeted her.
I told her about my days at the harbour last week and introduced her to my new friend Mumim. It was a special meeting for me because Claire has the same mentor that I have. We had a little chat and then went to bed because Claire was very tired.
Bye,
Pip

Remscheid, Germany - 1st July 2008

Hi Mummy,
I arrived in Remscheid today!
My new host Katja found my envelope when she came home in her lunch break. She even found two envelopes. In the other envelope there was also a ToyVoyager from the Netherlands.
While I waited that someone opened my envelope I heard that the other envelope was already opened. The new ToyVoyager is Sylphide. Then it was my turn to get out of the boring and narrow envelope.
You won't believe who was sitting there on my new host's kitchen work space: DESMOND! And also an eagle named Aquila and Sylphide.
I'm really happy to meet Desmond here, though he is here for already three weeks, so he won't stay much longer. But that doesn't matter. At least we met here.
I brought a postcard from Hamburg and of course my notebook with me.
You'll hear from me soon.
Bye
Pip

Remscheid, Germany - 4th July 2008

Hi Mummy,
today a new ToyVoyager arrived: Wadworth from England. Wadworth was born in a brewery and wants to taste beer all over the world.
Wadworth is a really small and cute bear.
Katja told us that she would drive to IKEA with a friend. She wanted to take all of us with her, but Sylphide fell into a padding pool yesterday and did not dry completely over night. So Desmond and Sylphide decided to stay at home. Desmond had to write a few things into his notebook, so they wanted to do it together.

Remscheid, Germany - 11th July 2008

Hi Mummy,
today we helped Katja to cook a delicious soup with broccoli. We had broccoli, some deep frozen leek, green peas, vegetable stock, garlic and some spices.
First we put some fat into a pot and steamed leek, garlic and green peas, later we put the broccoli into the pot and added vegetable stock. It had to boil for a few minutes, then it had to be purreed.
We addef salt, pepper and spices like nutmeg, basil, oregano and mixed herbes from the health food shop. When the soup was almost ready, we added some green cheese and sour cream.
The soup was really delicious.
In the late evening we were sitting on the kitchen's window sill, looking outside. We had two candles.
While we were sitting there and talking we broke a secret. We told Wadworth where we will go next week (we were supposed to keep it for ourselves). We will fly to Munich on Tuesday. We will stay there until Thursday.
Katja told me that there are a lot of beautiful parks where little dogs can play and maybe make new friends.
Bye
Pip
