Hello mommy
Today was an exciting day! Purple Tentacle invited us to learn archery...
So first we went to the fields nearby our house.
And this is our target, there in the back. It is made of straw.
Hahaha, Purple Tentacle is a very funny guy. He wants to take on the world And from his point of view we need to learn how to fight. Today with bow and arrow
Cilly, Wacky-Z and me payed attention on what he said.
This is our bow. It is a horsemans bow.
Hahaha, look at him how he lift up his little arm, while talking to us
And these are the arrows.
And another loooong monologue about arrows and how to use them correctly...
Then he told us, that we have to strike the target right in the middle.. Who'd have thunk?
I was the first archer! Did i score?
Oh nooo, no success...
But where are my arrows?
Ah, here they are!
As i arrived at the group, Wacky-Z jubilated to me. So nice!
Then i gave the bow to Wacky-Z. His shots were much better than mine.
Congrats, Wacky! That was a great job!
Cilly was the next one. She didn't scored, too. But the arrows were very close to the target.
Heey Cilly! Well done!
And now our master wanted to show us how to do that...
But he didn't scored..
Well, he shot the little shack, but not the straw target
Purple Tentacle: So my friends. As you can see, we have to practice! Then one day we score with every shot! We have to practice, practice, practice aaaand PRACTICE!
Cilly, Wacky-Z and Gypsy chorus: Yes, we will!
Hahaha, i think this is no job for a little girl like me. But, i said "yes we will!" to make Purple Tentacle happy. But don't tell him
After some more shots we enjoyed the sun..
..and relaxed a bit. Phew, archery is very exhausting!
See you soon,
Gypsy
