I took an extra long trip this week and thought I would share it with you today: I journeyed to the US!!
As you know, it’s camping time in Blogville! Sammy has organised a great trip for us all and it’s going to be super fun. I packed all my bags and set off, my plan being to head to Stuart and Ranger‘s beach party and then on the campsite.
However, in all the excitement to leave, I forgot my map and compass. And I sort of headed in the wrong direction – whoops! I ended up re-creating some of Ewan McGregor’s Long Way Round trip! So my journey took a bit longer than expected.
First of all I saw Paris. I ate lots of nice baguettes and croissants there:-)
Then I trekked through the Black Forest. But I didn’t find any gateaux, only a chateau! Unfortunately it’s not edible (I did try!)
So I carried on till I got to Saint Petersburg. I didn’t see any saints though.
From there I found my way to the Road of Bones, this sounds yummier than it is. For those who are tempted to go there, it is sadly NOT made of bones:-(
After a lot more walking, I finally made it to Alaska! And I caught some of the Iditarod. Kyla and Kaci were taking part this year, but I didn’t see them so I guess they’d already made it home by then.
Then, as you know, I finally made it to the beach party on Friday! It was as close call and I had to walk extra fast to make it in time.
I had a wonderful day and I definitely needed some time to rest after all that walking. You can find out all about the party over at Ranger and Stuart‘s. Then I headed off to Canada for the Camping trip!
It was good to finally unpack my bags, they were starting to feel a bit heavy. Do you think I took too much stuff with me??
Anyway, you can find out the latest about the camping trip over at Sammy’s!
Misaki! What an incredible journey you had getting to camp………you saw so much of the world on your way but we’re ALL very happy that you’re at Camp Sammy now. Just unpack your stuff, set up tent and RELAX!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
it was all worth it Sammy! Camp is going to be super fun:-)
Hey, you could have visited Normandy as well. I know you won’t be interested in apples, but you might like lard. And the local cuisine consists of apples, sour cream, potatoes and lard. Crêpes with lard? Would that be a valid cookie substitute?
mmm that all sounds nommy! I will definitely stop by Normandy on my next trip!
Wow what a trip to camp Sammy. That was a great adventure for sure. All those wonderful places.
On another matter, top of the morning to you.
Have a wonderful St Patricks’ Day.
Make it a good one.
Best wishes Molly
Happy St Patrick’s day Molly!
