Right now Im just poking around in Sleepy's kitchen. I could have some fun here.
Sleepy's family's digital camera isnt working right now, and Verizon is being stupid and not letting her update her plan to include pictures. We're trying really hard to get my lil fuzzy face out in the world. Stay tuned.

Warwick QLD, Australia - 14th September 2007

Well here I am, in sunny QLD, Australia, altho it's not very sunny today, or warm (so they tell me!).
It was so exciting, i got picked up at the post office by 2 very chatty and giggly fellow TV's, i met Bonnie's mum and 1 of her brothers and they brang me home where we had some happy snaps done. It was so good to be out of the bag, I seem to be feeling very awake and lively and Bonnie said she was very happy that I arrived today otherwise it would have been 2 whole days before they could come back to check for me! So i'm very glad too!
Bonnie had made us some morning tea, which is Sao biccies with vegimite on it. At first I wasn't so sure, it looks real black and has a funny smell, but a moose has to do what a moose has to do, so I jumped on in and had a taste. I'll admit, I wasn't keen to begin with, but it's not so bad after your tongue goes numb
I'm off to hang out with Bonnie and Berlin for awhile, but i'll be back to check in

Warwick QLD, Australia - 18th September 2007

Life has been easy and slow lately, but now that school holidays have begun and there is a gaggle of kids home it seems a trip or 2 is on the cards for us
during the last week of school, chook, bonnie's 6yo sister, had a couple of things happening at school, and she invited us to come along.
On the tuesday we went and helped the yr1's do their reading, I charge of the stamps, i had so much fun stamping the cards and the kids hands! bonnie had the cards and berlin had the books, so we all took turns and had some fun
Afterwards we went to "mums" friends house for a little farewell morning tea for bonnie, we got to play with the other kids and then we had a ride in the big yellow giraffe!
it was sad saying good bye to bonnie, and i really hope that somewhere at some stage we meet up again, but i know she's having fun and is on a whole new adventure of her own!

Stanwell Tops, Australia - 10th November 2007
By: becka_kate
We had to follow tradition and watch the hang gliders at Stanwell Tops on the way home.
There weren't that many about as it was getting really late in the day. They're so brave! We all agreed that it's probably ok once you're up there, but taking that last step off the cliff?? No way!
Oops, that one's a bit blurry!!
That's better! Did you know that this area (called Bald Point) is important in the history of flight because in 1894 a man called Lawrence Hargreaves was the first man in the world to fly with the help of four box kites on the beach below here?
And, look, that's the coastal highway we drove up. Can you see the bridge in the middle? It's called "Sea Cliff Bridge" and actually goes out over the water as the old road that ran along this point was blocked continually by rock falls from the cliff. I've put in a link to a proper photo of it. It's amazing!
