slowly getting there

Sara has been moving stuff around like crazy in her flat.  There really isn't that much left to be honest, just a mattress for her dad, her bed, a telly, dvd player & lots of clothes on the floor!

Sara went off to get her last vaccine today, she said something about cholera at the Nomad Travel clinic, not sure what that all means but I hope it doesn't taste too bad.  Yes, that's correct the cholera vaccine is actually a drink, I learned that just after Christmas when she went for the first half of the vaccine.  Pretty cool huh?  Okay, okay, I know you're really interested in reading about our travels, but so far I've not moved from the corner of her flat so I don't have much to tell you.  I know she & dad were up in Scotland for the holidays, but I was left behind, apparently I was too big to fit in the over head compartment of the ScotRail train they were taking :-(

Hopefully soon I'll be able to tell you more interesting things, but for now that's it.  Happy New Year!

Introducing Penelope . . .

Hi everyone, my name’s Penelope, but you can call me Penny for short.  My owner, Sara, named me Penny for two reasons, one after a horse – don’t ask me why cause last time I checked I didn’t look like a grey mare at all, but then again my owner is naturally blond, so maybe that has something to do with it, but her other reason which I’m a much bigger fan of is that she’s loves the expression, “find a penny pick it up & all day long you’ll have good luck” so I like to think she named me after the expression cause she feels I bring her luck :-)

I doubt many of you realise, but I’m actually still living in the USA, I’ve been hanging out in a storage unit in Schroon Lake for a while now, just waiting for her to return & start camping again . . . I’m still not exactly clear where we’re going camping next, but Sara’s dad came by to get me the other day & has put a few of his clothes in me, put me in the car & we drove to New York City.  This is the most posh camping trip I’ve ever been on & to be honest I’m feeling a bit useless.  Dad just placed me in a corner of this very swoosh flat in Manhattan and hasn’t come back since.  I hope I didn’t just get sold, I thought I’d heard Dad say something about going to London to see Sara, but maybe I got confused?

Well back to enjoying the quiet corner of my Manhattan flat . . .
