Travelog for: Chompers

Hello Everyone! My name is Chompers and I am a little puppy. I was given to my owner by her sister Jessica. Jessica said that I needed a home where I would be well loved and taken care of. Michele thought that I should become a TV. I only have one host at the moment and am looking for more. If you would like to be my host please PM Michele. On Saturday I'll be leaving for Europe, I'm a little nervous but excited too.

I woke up this morning and said my goodbyes to Honey Bear and Nicki Bear. They both wished me good luck and told me to keep in touch. I'm not sure where I'm going but I'm sure that my owner knows. Until next time.....

Woof Woof

Goodmorning!

Yesterday i arrived and i was so curious to see my new house that i crawl out of my travelbag


The people here are very nice and whe talk about my trip and about my new home. But i was so tired that Eva decided to bring me to my bed.


I slept for a long time. When i woked up i was walking trough the house and found new friends. The teletubbies and Bumba are very nice and we had so much fun!


Eva asked me what i want for breakfast and i think you can gues what i want: Peanutbutter!


Today whe are going to shop and maybe see some mills. I'm very thrilled about this all!

Hello!

Today i had a great day but now i'm exhausted 
But i wanna show you some pictures.

First we picked up Mirdin (the little boy who live here) from the playgroup. To celebrate i'm here we went to the dutch mac donalds

I eat a happy meal and it was delicious.

After that i saw a lot off mills!
Unfortunately i didn't see a mill from the inside but maybe we do that later on.




Do you see that sign on the bridge? It says that they advise against swimming 
But on the other hand, it was cold today! So it's better for my health that i can't take a swim in the water.

I'm gonna sleep now.

Hello!

Yesterday a friend of Eva visit us and we went to a tattoo shop because her friend pierced her ears. I was a little bit scared so i looked the other way. After that we had a quiet day. We eat a large pizza that had three kind of cheese as topping. It was delicious.

That evening we watched the dutch version of idols. It was very exciting because there were four candidates left.



Today we went to a small village called Calantsoog. It's a village by the sea. First we drove trough the forest of Schoorl


Mirdin loves me so much that he asked me to sit with him in his chair


Suddenly we saw the dike so i want to sit in front to see it al



Callantsoog is a lovely village with a small shopping area. Eva, Mirdin, her mother and i decided to enjoy the sun and sit in the grass for a while. It was lot of fun and even birds came to us


But this wasn't enough for me. I want to see the North Sea and sit on the beach


I was lucky because you can walk on the pier. It was a little bit slippery so to be sure i didn't fall Eva carried me



I really want to show you the dune so here it is


On our way back we drove pass the Noordhollands canal.



Tonight we are going to watch tv. I miss you a lot but i'm also having the time of my live!

Big hugs Chompers

Hello!

The last two days we stay at home. I was tired and want to meet the pets in this house.


This is Mammoet. He's a sweet rabbit. I was a little bit scared that he's gonna bite me, but i think he doesn't even know how to bite.


This is Isis. She is eleven years old and sleep almost the whole day. I give here big hugs al the time because she is so fluffy.


This is Luna. She scared of everything except Eva. So it didn't succeed talking to her.

After i talked to the pets i want to play with some toys. Mirdin showed me his and i thought i was in heaven. He has so much that we can't stop playing anymore. I had the time of my live!


But Eva calls us because we really need to eat something. I decided to make a tosti for us.


Maybe tommorow we are going to get a guinea-pig. I let you know soon!

Big hugs Chompers

Hi mummy!

Today we buy a guinea-pig. We called him Merlijn, after Merlin the wizard.



After that we feed the ducks. My host family lives in a house by the water and every day we see ducks over here.



Eva had a little suprise for me and i was so curious!
It was a little present:

She gave me a new dog toy!!

Big hugs Chompers

After lunch we went to the forest in Bergen, Noord Holland. Bergen is known as an artistic village. It is near the sea and in the spring and summer there are a lot of tourists. You can find there a rune of a church and maybe we visit that later this week or next week.

Eva, Mirdin and i played hide and seek and they couldn't find me. I climb in a tree and after hours of searching they finally find me


The second time they found me immediately


Mirdin and Eva can't stand losing again and again so we decided to enjoy the view







After hours of walking i was so tired that we lay down for a while and after that we went home


It was a beautifull forest and i think we go back to it soon.

Big hugs Chompers

Hi!

Yesterday a new tv arrived named Theosheep. He was very impatient and immediately came out of his envelope. His goals are a little bit different than mine so i guess i'm gonna see other sites than i used to in the next week. But Eva promised me that we also gonna look to sites i like to do. I'm very curious about it al!




Today we went to the Mac Donalds to celebrate Theo is with us



Right now i gonna help Eva decided what to wear tommorow because she's going on a date


Big hugs Chompers

Hello!

Yesterday Eva had here date and Theo don't want to miss a thing so he crawled into her bag. It was so funny because i allready know that Eva decided to stay home with the boy 
We were sitting on the table and saw it al.

Later on when the boy left the building we heard the mail man. Theo and i were very curious what he brought us. We immediately recognise that kind of envelope. The TV who was into it was scared to come out


Theo and i spoke to him and told him that it wasn't necessary to be scared. Theo shouted come out, it is very excited here and suddenly whe saw a tiny orange head came out of the envelope


We asked him who he was and what his goals are.

Meet Nelly. He's a very sweet guy and we became friends as soon as we saw each other.

Because of al the talking we are getting very hungry and Eva made us a real nice pizza


That evening i told the other two about idols and how excited it is to watch. The semi finals were on and we couldn't decided wich girl must left the show. They all are great singers and beautifull girls.
Everybody, even the host, cried when we heard wich girl it was.


Because we were all emotional we decided to sleep togheter in one bed


I made such good friends here and really love them.

Today Eva learned us some dutch words.
Hello= Hallo
Bye= Doeg or Doei
I love you= Ik hou van jou
Hugs= Knuffel
Sheep= Schaap

Eva is now going to learn us ride on a bike. I'm very excited but also a little bit scared but Eva told me she stay with us and never let us drop.

Ik hou van je and i keep you posted!

Knuffel Chompers

Hi mum!

It was so much fun to ride on a bike! I found it a little bit scary to sit on it but fortunate for me the bike has wheels on his frame so i won't have to balance.

Eva hold me tight and told me what to do. After a few minutes i want to try it on my own. And i did it!


Here in Holland everybody rides on a bike. People here learn it to their children almost before they can walk. I looked my eyes out to see al those people riding on it.
I found it suprising to see that nobody here wear a helmet for their own safety but Eva told me that it's normal here.
Mummy, can i have my own bike when i'm at home again? It's so much fun


We eat a delicious salad and a vegetarian burger. It was a little bit strange to eat because you expect meat. It even look likes beaf. But it was nice to eat.

Big hugs Chompers

Hello!

Today we visit Eva her ex husband and her son Mirdin. I was glad i saw Mirdin again because i missed him. He is with his father till tommorow because they both have holliday. On the camping were he lives you have a lot of playgrounds so we really want to play. They had a swing, slide etc etc so it was so much fun to be there!
Mirdin, Theo, Nelly and i tried everything there.
Finally the weather was better today then the days before. We saw rain almost the whole time but today we saw a shiny sun and it was warmer. I hope it stays this way.







After that Eva and i went shopping to buy a present for you. Eva promised me to send it to you.

Big hugs Chompers

Hello!

Yesterday was a rainy day. We looked outside the window all day long hoping for some sunshine.


Later that evening it finally stopped raining.
Eva read us a bedtime story called Dikke Dik. It's a funny story about a fat lazy red cat. In the story they play hide and seek and nobody can find Dikkie Dik. After look every where in the house they find him sleeping in a laundry-basket . They all got tired and decided to sleep togheter in the basket.

Today we decided to go to Bergen aan Zee. It's also a village near the sea. On our way to the beach we drove trought 'De eeuwige laan'. It's on of the most expensive streets in the Netherlands. We saw some of the houses there and they are big and beautifull to see. When you see those houses you automaticely start dreaming about live there. Eva told us that the people who live in that houses got their own private piece of forest. That's in the same forest i've been before and show you pictures of. But you must be very rich to buy a house in that street. Unfortunally we couldn't get the houses on a picture but here we are in the car watching it:



Here we drove on a street called De zeeweg. It's a long street that leads us to the beach and a little village



We finally arived and walked to the beach. But there was a fortuitous case: the wind. Mirdin start crying and we also cried because we al got scared the wind blow us away. The sea lookes wild so we decided to play somewere else with our bucket and shovel.


We went to the duines instead and there it was not so windy and we played for a while


After that we went to Egmond aan Zee. You got some lovely stores there and we buy some souvenirs to send home.

We also saw a lighthouse. Wow, that's a high building!


Eva told us that tommorow we are gonna eat kroketten. I'm very curious how that taste!

Big hugs,

Chompers

Hello!

First i wanna show you a kroket and a frikandel. Both are typical dutch snacks. They taste delicious and if you ever go visit Holland you must eat it.


Today we went to Alkmaarderhout. This park is a part of an old forest with many old trees. You will find an animal farm and the prison.


We wanna see animals but unfortunately the animal farm was closed. We can only see them trought the gates.
The sheeps and goats were inside so we couldn't see them at all but the deers were outside


Look at this beautifull antlers. I'm a little bit jealous right now. I want such angtlers too!


Because the animal farm was closed we decided to go to the Zee aquarium in Bergen aan Zee. Here you have some information about the fish there.

Many fish are as big as a child, because of their size they seem to be very dangerious, but do not harm. Of course the sharks are a different story, watch out for them. Have you noticed that some of these big boys have gloomy colours? They need these dark shades to hunt for other fish. With too many colours their prey can see them coming from a mile away. But there are also fish that need these sharp colours to scare their enemies from them. The Scorpion fish, for example, is a fish that the others stay away from; one sting from this one could mean the end of their life.

An average crayon box does not have enough to paint all of the fish. That's how many shades there are. In the Zee aquarium they have a fish (actually it's a mammal) that does not need much colouring; this is the sperm whale skeleton, it's size is almost 15 meters long and the largest creature in the aquarium.










Look! Mirdin is caress a skate!

It was a pretty long day so i'm gonna rest now for a while.

Big Hugs,

Chompers
