Travelog for: NoMi

WHEW!  What a long trip, but only three days, not bad postal service!  Thanks for delivering me quickly to my new destination! 

Today I just wanted to relax and rest my wings from my travels.  So I went to the backyard and had a look see.  I also met two of my new three beagle friends, Molly (the brown dog) and Hammie (the grey/blue dog).

I also had a really yummy beverage, raspberry woodchuck cider.  SOOO Yummy.

I met an outgoing TV named Paluqtaq.  Abbey is Paluqtaqs mommy.  I watched Seinfeld with him for awhile.  It was pretty fun! She is happy to be sending him out on his travels!

This evening we went out for Thai food.  It was SOOO delicious.  Abbey and I shared Pineapple red curry and her husband had pumpkin curry.  I tasted that too.  It was delicious!

Today we drove out to Houston, Alaska for a stop at Miller's Market.  They have the BEST soft serve ice cream.  They also have a giant ice cream cone.  The ice cream was so good!

Today we went to a birthday party for Abbey and her husbands godson/nephew.  It was a lot of fun.  He has celiac disease, so all the food was gluten free.  It was surprisingly good despite that!  Aren't the cupcakes cute?   His mom made them.

Then we had to drive back to Anchorage.

Today we also went and celebrated Abbey's dads birthday.  We had coconut cake and it was SOOO delicious.  I have such a full tummy from all the delicious food today!

We also played a game which was pretty fun too!

Well, today was the first day of school since I arrived.  Fun!  Today was anatomy class, where we discussed the respiratory system.  It was actually pretty boring, but hey, it can't all be the best thing ever!

Today was Anatomy lab day.  I helped Abbey study the respiratory system anatomy and color in some of the parts.  It was a lot to memorize.  But, the lab was interesting.  Apparently they were doing a little protein digestion experiment.  It was not interesting mom said.  I had to stay in the cubby while lab went on.

Today I went to breakfast with Abbey's dad and her nephew at IHOP.  Abbey had whole wheat pancakes but didn't get to finish them because her nephew was a big distraction and doesn't like to sit in his car seat while everyone eats.  He likes to be held.   That's fine with Abbey until he puked all over her.

Today Abbey and I made an apple pie.  It was SO FUN!  The pie didn't turn out perfect, but let's just say I put my mark on it!

Today was an exciting day.  I haven't been missing, but my host, Abbey has been not feeling very well.  A new friend arrived today!  Benno!

Well, it was an exciting couple of days!  First we went to the yogurt shoppe and got some frozen yogurt which host mom did up with whipped cream and all sorts of delicious things!  I tried some, it was delicious!

Then, I helped her with her medicine which wasn't fun for her, but interesting to me!

Then, I got to go outside in the snow for the first time here.  That was pretty fun.  It has warmed up to 25*F so it's been pretty nice my host mom says.  I'm not so sure.  The ice and snow keep it pretty cold.

Then I helped host mom with her other hobby, letter boxing.  It is really fun.  You carve stamps and then hide them in the woods places.  Pretty cool stuff.  This one is being mailed however because it is too cold and snowy to be hidden just yet.  So, it's mailed around the US until it gets back to Alaska.

Then we took a group shot with all of the little friends that have arrived here.  It's been busy and entertaining!

NoMi is home and safe.
