HELLO EVERYONE!
My name is Hipsu. I'm small and friendly little crocheting creature. I told my mom, that I would love to travel and see the World, so mommy made me this travelog. I'm so happy and exited about this hole thing. I'm very curious, and I would like to see how you are living, and what kind of place you are living in. If you are interested about hosting me, just let my mommy mmm105 know about it, please. Thank you! As you can see from these photos, I'm very energetic and love to do lots of different things. Here I'm taking photos... SMILE, PLEASE!!! SAY: CHEECE!!! Thanks! ...spending time with mommy's cat... Mommy's cat is so funny, because he always put his head in a weird positions while relaxing. I like reading... ...and listening to music... ...playing... ...having my body in good condition... ...doing sudokus... ...writing postcards... ...eating and taste different foods... ...drawing and dreaming... But that's not all I like to do. I like to try and learn new things, and I would be happy to being part of your daily life. Greetings, Hipsu |

Hi hii, I learned to make an origami today. It was fun!
It is a piano. Is it nice? xxx Hipsu |
mmm105 Posted Apr 18, 2012, 6:45 pm |
I had a fun day today!
I was skiing! Others were there, too. And we got more company here. ToyVoyagers Finfin ladybug and PinkLady bunny. It's nice to have more toys here! ...But I'm little bit jealous, because I would really want to start my own journey soon... hopefully someone would want to host me soon... xx Hipsu |
mmm105 Posted Apr 24, 2012, 4:40 pm |
Hey!
Today we got company. A cute frog Telie arrived here from Luxembourg. We all gave Telie a group hug as a welcome. And here we all are: Ape Apina, PinkLady, me, Telie, Finfin, Sylvia, Mo, Porridge and Tokki Telie showed us some pictures of Luxembourg. I think it is a beautiful country. I'm so exited, because mommy told me that very soon it's my turn to start travelling. I will go to Luxembourg to visit Telie's mom, wow! I told that to Telie, and we both smiled the rest of the day. xxx Hipsu |
mmm105 Posted Apr 24, 2012, 8:41 pm |

Uaaahhh |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 8:50 am |
Hello mum,
I really like to be here, it's much more diff. than at home. All this new things to see .... This morning we visited Mersch, a small town 20 km. away from Waldbillig. There we saw the tower of an old church, the new one and a strange creature, something like Nessy from Scotland! Today we made also a short day trip to the german Eifel, the weather was not so bad so we could see a lot of nice views, but have a look yourself! |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 9:05 am |
The morning,
each day start with a walk, with Dooley, the big, and I'm mean really big, dog of hostmum. But he is very friendly and I can even go with him alone. Look isn't it great In a tree we saw a nest from a bird, but there was nothing inside |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 9:16 am |
...this is something special,
what hostmum showed us today. A rock in form of a mushroom, like a big mushroom. |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 9:31 am |
On this sunny day we drove in the valley of the 7 castles,
unfortunately we have not seen them all. But which we don't found, who knows in the middle of the forest. |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 9:37 am |
This two castles are the most closer to my hostmum's farm.
Larochette and Meysembourg, very beautiful to have a look! For the small country that Luxembourg is they have an old castle nearby in every village, soooo much of them. For the rest of the day it restart raining, and we had to stay inside! |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 9:50 am |
Today our hostmum took Mush and ThomasHH alone with her in the city of Luxembourg. To show them the city, they go and leave us in the next days
For the other TV, she promised to go again in the next time! So I helped on the farm today, that was nice too, with all the animals. I've had a lot of pleasure. |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 9:55 am |
Stormy weather outside
and a hostmum with a flu in the bed. She's really ill We made a lot of tea for her these days! Hope she recovered fast!!! |
Lisianne Posted May 11, 2012, 10:01 am |
Hi mummy,
to pass the the time inside, hostmum is still ill, we wrote postcards, to our family. And we helped hostmum with her Postcrossing postcards. I know that from home so I could help her very much! |
Lisianne Posted May 13, 2012, 5:07 pm |

Lisianne Posted May 13, 2012, 5:28 pm |
Look mummy, we found that cool book of our host-mum, we really want to know what is written inside! Perhaps it's her diary-book ....... |
Lisianne Posted May 13, 2012, 5:35 pm |

Lisianne Posted May 19, 2012, 3:37 pm |

Lisianne Posted Jun 6, 2012, 2:28 pm |

and have a look to all animals who are outside! Today we have done that all together |
Lisianne Posted Jun 6, 2012, 2:42 pm |
It's not really one of my missions complete and
host-mum was even more sad than I, but we saw a part of a rainbow in the sky We try do find a better one, here are often rainbows in the sky! |
Lisianne Posted Jun 8, 2012, 8:21 am |
Our host-mum has a new project.
She want to knit a blanket. Here you go and see us all when we helped her. |
Lisianne Posted Jun 8, 2012, 8:31 am |

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOST-MUM !!!
It was quiet a busy day for us but later in the day host-mum took a little bit of her time and showed us the beautiful village of Vianden with his castle. And also the castle of Bourscheid, both more in the north of Luxembourg. |
Lisianne Posted Jun 8, 2012, 8:50 am |
Hi mum,

Lisianne Posted Jun 8, 2012, 8:56 am |
Oh mum,

Lisianne Posted Jun 8, 2012, 9:32 am |

Lisianne Posted Jun 8, 2012, 9:36 am |

Lisianne Posted Jun 13, 2012, 1:22 pm |
Mum,
finally host-mum has had the time to show us the main place, the most famous place from her area, the Schiessentümpel, a very, very old bridge, with a very, very small waterfall in a beautiful forest again with many big rocks around. I like this place! |
Lisianne Posted Jun 13, 2012, 1:42 pm |

Lisianne Posted Jun 13, 2012, 1:49 pm |
Jipee,
look mummy I complete a part of one life mission I ate in a restaurant in Luxembourg and it was really good!!! |
miapearl Posted Jun 28, 2012, 5:52 pm |
I have arrived, but no time to rest as my host is taking me out. |
miapearl Posted Jun 28, 2012, 7:13 pm |
Only just arrived to find myself out somewhere.
I am at a station waiting for the train. The train came and we are on the train, just leaving the station. The engine pulls us out of the station, but then has to switch ends to pull us in another direction. Porthmadog has an estuary, with a tidal island. And inland, are some hills and mountains of Snowdonia in the distance. We are going across the Cob, built to cross the estuary. This is the River Glaslyn. A hill, Moel Hebog, from Beddgelert station We are moving again. And on we go. We have stopped off in Rhyd Ddu. We can take a look at the engine. Can you see the top of Mount Snowdon? Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales. And on we go. We are approaching another station. That engine is called Caernarfon Castle. |
miapearl Posted Jun 28, 2012, 7:23 pm |
We have arrived back in Caernarfon
The train will go back to Porthmadog. There's Caernarfon Castle. |
Lisianne Posted Jul 4, 2012, 9:02 am |
Hello mummy,
this is my last day here in Luxembourg and I have to say goodbye to host-mum and all the other TV's, I'm sad but also happy to see other nice places. I will never forget you, bye Hipsu |
Lisianne Posted Jul 4, 2012, 9:21 am |
Ok mummy,
today it's time to learn a few words in luxembourgish |
Lisianne Posted Jul 4, 2012, 10:47 am |
Hello mummy,
it's me Hipsu I was in Luxembourg city today, with host-mum. A very beautiful old fortress-town. But go and have a look yourself on the pictures we took together! |
Lisianne Posted Jul 4, 2012, 1:01 pm |
Today we saw big, very big rocks in Berdorf. |
miapearl Posted Jul 27, 2012, 11:01 pm |
We've been busy
Shelling peas. And filled a bag with empty pea pods. |
miapearl Posted Jul 29, 2012, 7:47 pm |
Hi Mum,
It had stopped raining so we went out... This is Llyn Padarn. These swans came to say hello |
miapearl Posted Jul 29, 2012, 7:52 pm |
We've come out to Manchester in England to visit a museum.
This is an old steam engine called Planet. This is a Ferranti Inverted Engine This is a model of an engine a set up at ICI Part of the museum is based in a train shed, and there are train engines and carriages. In another building of the museum, equipment from a laboratory at Daresbury, used in various experiments. People from the lab won a Nobel Prize. There was a hands on science section. We can investigate Magnetic Fields. Do you see the difference? This is John Dalton, a father of modern chemistry. The Periodic Table. Manchester was home to the textile industry. Printing patterns. We caught a cotton demonstration. Here, the fibres are separated and drawn together to make a "thingy". Then they are smoothed out again and combined with other strands to make it stronger. The strands are smoothed out again and combined with other strands to make it stronger still, and then wound onto a bobbin. The thread is drawn out, and then twisted before rolled onto another bobbin. Small children would clear out the debris as the machine moves back... A dangerous job... Now it is time for weaving to make the cloth. This is the Pegasus computer, built by Ferranti. Air samplers to measure radiation. Here we are measuring radiation. Next, we went to another building housing the aviation and other vehicles section. Something by GEC avionics. A limousine. Boldly going where no one has gone before. |
miapearl Posted Jul 29, 2012, 8:10 pm |
Today, we popped to the allotment
These blackcurrants are almost ready. I'll have a munch on this cabbage. Yum, potatoes. My host is growing a small patch of wheat and broad beans. Yummy raspberries, red and yellow Do you see the goldfish in the pond? |
miapearl Posted Jul 29, 2012, 8:11 pm |
After the allotment, as it was a nice day, we went to Portmeirion.
This is the type of chair Number Two sat in. That is the Pantheon, or "Green Dome" up there. Nice and cool in the shade, looking across the gardens. Pretty flowers on the woodland walk. The sea is out. The Lighthouse Admiral Nelson. The Observatory Tower. Looking up to the village. Ahoy there! The Bell Tower. Most of the buildings have Grade II listed status. Coins thrown in the fountain are given to charity. The Piazza. The Bristol Colonnade again. The Toll House. The Round House is where Number Six "lived" here. |
miapearl Posted Jul 29, 2012, 8:11 pm |
Today, was another nice day so we went out to Colwyn Bay's Mountain Zoo The meerkats are fascinating to watch. That one is on guard duty Cute! There's a bear. A spider monkey.. A gibbon.. A snoozing tiger... a strange bird, a rhea I think. Penguins Flamingoes |
miapearl Posted Jul 29, 2012, 8:12 pm |
