I've arrived mum!!! :D Woohoo!!! That envelope was starting to get a bit boring so I was so glad to get out and meet the TVs waiting for me here.

I was greeted by Edelweiss, Midori Rabit, Jala and Sienna. Edelweiss gave me a hug so I felt welcomed :) Then she helped me get out the present I brought with me, which they liked very much. They say the wrapping is much appreciated to protect the wafers, and I was proud that I didn't break in with my beak and eat them on the way, it was very tempting :p

They also thought the postcard was very beautiful and I explained to them that me and my mum like lighthouses :) I wanna go see a lighthouse! But I'm not sure if there are any round here... we'll have to do some investigation.

I hope my friends at home are well,
I will update again soon!
Love Patka

Hi mum! My host has been very busy working on some strange thing called an essay these last few days... it looks very boring to us TVs. 'We want adventure!' we said. So during a break Midori and I were permitted to explore the college grounds where we are staying, with supervision :p I'm not sure why I need supervision... I am very sensible and wouldn't get lost! ;)

Anyway it was a lovely winters day :) We found a nice tree to have a peaceful chat on until we got a bit cold despite our scarves and then wanted to start moving again. We wandered up some steps and posed for a picture there, but you can't see me very well. I was bathing in the sun B) The third picture shows the path down to the dining hall which you can vaguely see towards the right. That building is rather dull though so we walked back up to where the students live. I found some nice holly leaves which made me feel christmassy. In the background to that picture you can see one of the gyms, but my host have never been in there :p

Next we went through towards the court yard and found some candles. We wanted to light one to warm up but we didn't have a lighter :( My host said they must be there for one of the events they hold in the building that looks a bit like a church, but is used for parties. Then we went inside and up the stairs towards our room. I looked over the bannisters and saw the computer room where my host writes those weird things. I don't think the computer room will be very exciting. We nosied out of the windows as we climbed the stairs, and I nearly got blinded by the sun. We have had such torrential rain for the last few days though that the sun is a big relief. My host had to take a detour to lectures as the river overflowed and the path was over a metre underwater :o I said I could have swam and met some ducks, but my host said that the water was too mucky and the ducks had disappeared :(

P.s. Sorry some of the photos are smaller than others, we converted their size in bulk so I don't know how that's happened?! Strange :stare:

Helloo mum!

We went along with our host for a walk around Durham on the way to the last day of lectures. We went along what is called 'The Bailey' and then stopped off at the cathedral. It was a very cold day but the mist was pretty. I decided to try to take a silhouette picture of myself and the cathedral. In the picture after that the building behind me is of the old university library.

We walked back into the centre of the city to market square, then across the bridge where the sky and river looked lovely. When looking over to see the river a seagul swooped by :)

Next we went to the science site where the lectures are and took a picture of the new statue in front of the library. The statue is so depressing it is actually quite funny. My host thinks that the statue accurately represents how students feel when entering the library  People start crying and screaming 'Nooo!' Haha, that is a joke... I hope :p

The next picture shows a multicoloured round lecture building, which is quite a contrast compared to the very old buildings in the middle of the city. Then we faced the hill up to the psychology department which was our destination.

When we went back it had gone dark so we went back through the centre to see the lights. Our camera isn't that good in the dark though. I saw santa's grotto and had a little rest watching the little train go round :)

We have now travelled back to the north west for christmas, so I will explore this new place soon!

Today was very exciting as a new TV Emma Squirrel arrived! :D We helped her out of her envelope and Sienna Monkey shook her hand in welcome. Then she showed us the nuts that she had brought with her from her last host. One of them had cracked in the post though so Edelweiss and I had fun being silly and using the shell as hats :p

These are the pictures from christmas :) The first ones are from the day before; the host family I am with are cheeky and wait until Christmas Eve to get a tree as then they are sold off cheap for 1p :p Then us TVs helped with the decorations. I met a friendly angel bear and had a chat with Mr Snowman.

Then there was a bit of a commotion as there was a drunken hooligan! Ahaha. A wild guy called Ernie had found the wine :stare:

On christmas day we helped get the presents out then posed on the mantelpiece for some photos. One of the presents was an egg cup but we think it is better used as a nice pink chair for Edelweiss ;)

Very merry late christmas!

Hi mum!

Over Christmas we have been back in the north west of England, so we went on the train to the nearby city of Manchester. The big circular building with all the columns is the library, however building work was being done so we couldn't go in. We then went to Albert square to find the town hall, and two pigeons casually strolled past :p In the background you can see the Prince Albert memorial (on the left), and the John Bright statue which I got a closer picture with. I think he was some political man but my host doesn't know much about Politics ;) The fountain was made for the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria :)

Helloo mom!

The first picture is us on the train to Durham; some of the countryside we passed still had remains of snow :) We actually got snow in spring this year! 

Last weekend we went for a walk in county durham and found some hay!  However it was covered in black so it didn't look as hayish as we'd hoped :/ Still, it was fun to climb B) We climbed up so fast our host wondered where we'd gone, until she looked up :p

It got dark very quickly as we'd set out a bit late in the day, but we could see the lights in the distance which looked pretty :)

Hi mum! Over the Easter holidays we went to visit my host's friend in Cambridge. On the train we went via London so here are the pictures we took at King's Cross station. We found platform nine and three quarters from Harry Potter! :p The magical folk were trying to get onto the platform by running through the wall with their trolleys :D But soon we had to board our muggle train to continue our trip.

Hello mum!

Here finally is the continuation of our journey down south :) The train arrived in Cambridge. It was curiously sunny and warm for April! B)

We wandered along the streets and I found a bit of wall to sit on which looked rather spooky with the leafless branches and background. We then came across 'the Church of the Holy Sepulchre'  which is apparently one of 4 round churches on England. Opposite this was a sweet shop! :p

We then came across St John's college (I am sitting on the wall in front of part of it, then went to look at the front door). Cambridge university is made up of 31 colleges altogether, but on this trip we just looked at the outsides of a few.

Next up was Trinity College (the one in the background where I am sitting on a letterbox :)) We then walked towards the river but on the way I peaked into Corpus Christi College.

Because it was so sunny there were lots of students and visitors punting along the river - looks fun! :D

Later we found a long driveway lined with trees; at the end was another bridge then another pretty building - I assume this was a college but we have forgotten so will ask my host's friend about it.

At the end of our day we rested in the park and guess who was waiting for me there?! Mr and Mrs Duck! :D So I got to say hello and complete my life mission of seeing other real ducks, yay!

This funny frog is hanging on the kitchen lamp.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09089_zpsbf259ec0.jpg

Hi mum,

this week Richy had to travel to Leamington Spa in Great Britain. My friends and I decided to attend Richy.
Leamington Spa is a nice small town near Birmingham.
See me standing in front of the town hall.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09217_zpsb7e2437e.jpg

This is the Queen Victoria monument in front of the town hall.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09221_zps492f2c8e.jpg

This street is called The Parade. It is the main shopping street.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09223_zpsd93b96b6.jpg

I like this typical red letterbox.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09231_zps3423a328.jpg

Leamington Spa is situated by the river Lem.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09244_zps575cf40c.jpg

Leamington Spa takes part in "Britain in bloom"-competition. See these beautiful flower arrangements. It is absolutely lovely.

Hi mum,

today we visited Stratford upon Avon. It is a little town in the middle of England and famous for its son William Shakespeare!

In this half-timbered house Shakespeare was born in 1564.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09317_zpsf2b17121.jpg

As you know Shakespare was a famous writer. And even nowadays his plays are shown in many theaters. The most famous one is the Royal Shakespeare theater. It is the building on the other sider of the river.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09285_zps561a9e71.jpg

Stratford is situated on the river Avon.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09259_zps7eb4feea.jpg

There are a lot of small boates, called barges. You can rent them to spend your holidays on the water.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09266_zps2d84c309.jpg

See me standing in front of a little lock.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09270_zps6693379c.jpg

We enjoyed the park on the river bank and watched the chain ferry.

Hi mum,

today the sun was shining and we decided to visit the Hamburg harbour.
See me standing in front of the harbour.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09328_zps15069937.jpg

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09329_zps9e2706df.jpg

This is one of the historic harbour buildings. Nowadays there are some restaurants and pubs in it.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09327_zpscdf4f54d.jpg

Oh look, the "Kirchdorf" is one of the old harbour ferries.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09336_zps29309841.jpg

See me standing in front of the "Rickmer Rickmers", an old sailing boat and today a museum ship.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09339_zpse0a728e1.jpg

In the background you can see the "San Diego", an old general cargo vessel and today also a museum ship, and the "Elbphilarmonie". The Elbphilarmonie will be an imposing building with a concert hall, a hotel and some flats, when it is ready.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09343_zpsf25b7d07.jpg

On the other river side you can see the harbour docks with some ships in it.

Hi mums,

what a wonderful day! We enjoyed the day on the water and on the beach.
See me in front of one of the Hamburg harbour ferries.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09330_zpse6c1b311.jpg

By boat we went to Hamburg-Övelgönne. The first stop was Hamburg Altona with its fish auction hall.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09351_zps2dd3ffb4.jpg

Behind me you can see a typical old storage house. Nowadays there are flats in it.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09354_zpse06ce1bf.jpg

On our way we saw a cruise ship - the AIDASOL.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09358_zpse40f3d66.jpg

See me in front of the tug boat station.

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09412_zpsbee2332a.jpg

Övelgönne is a museum harbour with old boats.

Dear mums,

this weekend we visited Scillys parents in a small village.
We got up very early. We had fog and I liked the atmosphere.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC_5223_zps0e85c24d.jpg

In the afternoon the sun was shining and we explored the farmyard and the garden. Look, what a nice birdhouse :D
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09420_zpsfead4c11.jpg

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09421_zps83496115.jpg

The house has a thatched roof and a very nice terrace.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09427_zps8e823910.jpg

We found this old tractor.

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09452_zps646bf556.jpg

In the pond we saw some goldfishes and coi carps.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC_5243_zps69fd13d7.jpg

There are still some colorful flowers in the garden.

Dear mums,

today we took a long walk in the Lewitz. It is a big area in Mecklenburg which is full of canals, small lakes and grass fields.
We enjoyed the sunshine.

We found a field full of cows. Look, they are very curious. I think they never saw Toyvoyagers before  ;)

Dear mums,

today is reunification bankholiday. And as the weather is fine we took a trip to Zollenspieker Fährhaus. It is situated by the river Elbe in the south of Hamburg. It is a meeting point for many bikers. See me in front of the motorbikes.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09469_zps9ff6b9f5.jpg

Fährhaus means ferry house. And so the ferry connect Zollenspiek on the Hamburg side and Hopte on the Lower Saxony side.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09459_zpsbc9054df.jpg

In front of this sign we have to wait for the next ferry.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09474_zps573e9aff.jpg

We enjoyed the crossing.

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09489_zps9fa3710d.jpg

Back on the Hamburg side we watched the boats go by.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09478_zps0f81ae7a.jpg

Some people enjoyed the sun on the small beach.

In the background you can see a Biergarten.

Then it was time for coffee and cake. Yummy......

Dear mums,

autumn is a nice season in Hamburg. The trees are very colorful and there is a special light in the sunshine.
Today we took a walk through a park in Hamburg Ohlsdorf.
This is a wonderful place, isn't it!

Dear mums,
what a exciting day!!!!
We took a trip to Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. We had to get up in the morning very early. And so we had a whole day in Stockholm
First we visited the market hall of Östermalm with its many delicatessen stalls.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09564_zps708b3388.jpg

See me in front of the national theatre.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09573_zps0a26ff0e.jpg

Stockholm has a lot of lakes and canals and we saw many old boats.

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09644_zps880aca96.jpg

This is the swedish Parliament building.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09594_zps1d25f2bd.jpg

Behind me you can see the royal palace. It is a very imposing building.

This bridge connects the main town with the old part of Gamla Stan.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09604_zps9ee944d9.jpg

In Gamla Stan we found a lot of old building and some narrow lanes.

Dear mums,

November was a busy month. But now we are in Cornwall an enjoying the seaside, beaches and cliffs.
We are living in a place called St Ives. Clairchen told me that this is her home town :D

And even though it is November the weather is great and we are having a lot of sunshine.
This is Porthmeor Beach, one of the five bays of St Ives.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09715_zps1a88db94.jpg

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09714_zpse023f38a.jpg

This place behind me is called "The Island".
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09724_zpsedbaeae3.jpg

See me sitting with my friends and looking down from The Island on to Porthmeor Beach.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09741_zps9df7c75e.jpg

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09742_zpscd0e7010.jpg

Then we saw this "coastal watch" house.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09746_zps17cc648d.jpg

I enjoyed the view from the Island.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09747_zpsea205499.jpg

See me in front of Porthgwidden Beach, another beach of St Ives.

I especially liked the changing cabins with its colourful doors.

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09774_zps9677ebe8.jpg

Looking forward to see the other beaches in the next few days.

Dear mums,

I can't believe. It is november and we have such  a lot of sunshine. We've seen people with short trousers and Flip Flops today  :cyclops:
First we visited Bamaluz beach. It is only a very small one. See me in front of the beach.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09809_zps05c6c22a.jpg

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09808_zps8bd879b2.jpg

Bamaluz is situated near the harbour. There are some big houses overlooking the beach.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09807_zps072d0189.jpg

Then we went to the harbour. It is really lovely. There is a small beach at the harbour too. And in low tide you can walk between the boats.

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC09849_zps1f9a7707.jpg

At the end of our walk we enjoyed a cup of coffee on the harbour front overlooking the harbour.

Dear mums,

another sunny day in Cornwall! So we decided to explore the boats in the harbour at low tide.
First we enjoyed the sun sitting on a boat.

today we visited Lands End, the most westerly point of the mainland Great Britain.
Please see Longships Lighthouse behind me.

See me and my friends looking for all the shipwrecks along the coastline. It is really dangerous.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC00040_zps044992f8.jpg

As proof that I was in Lands End see me in front of the Lands End sign.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC00049_zps05db9298.jpg

This is a view along the coast. The white house is the "last and first house".

What a beautiful coastline! http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC00055_zps3f72ac4b.jpg

We walked on the coastal path from Lands End to Sennen Cove.
We found some funny stones.

http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC00065_zpsf59d4302.jpg

How exciting! We saw a shipwreck in the cliffs. It was a german ship, the  RMS Mühlheim. It was wrecked on 22 March 2003.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC00071_zpsbf5ce537.jpg

Please see the village of Sennen Cove behind me.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC00080_zpsdb9cb5c3.jpg

There is a small and lovely harbour in Sennen Cove.
http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff516/ScillyHH/Toyvoyagers%202/DSC00086_zps31d0de62.jpg

On our way we stopped at Truro with its famous cathedral.

Hi mums!
I've been doing lots of stuff lately so there's many pictures to come, the other day we went to MODO museum (Museo del objeto del objeto or museum of the object of the object... is a game of words) to see this very cool expo from the Broken relationships museum. The museum is in Zagreb but the expo travels around the world and they ask for people from the country that they are visiting to donate objects, there's some very interesting stuff and really cool stories, we took some pics with the objects that had our favorite stories...

Hi mums!
The other day we visited another museum, this time it was the anthropology museum. This is one of the most important museums in Mexico, it has the famous aztec calendar! However we just went there to see an exhibit called Keramiká, that belongs to the Louvre Museum and it has ceramic pieces from ancient Greece, it was awesome!

We took the metro (subway) and saw this painting of London's metro

As we walked to the museum we saw the Mexico-Korea pavilion which is a park

Hello!

(apologies these pictures are only being posted now - they got a bit forgotten!)

These are photos from when we were on our way back from Cambridge.

This is the walk from King's Cross station (first picture) to London Euston station, so that we could get a train from Euston to home. It is a 5 minute walk and on the way we passed St Pancras station, which is next to King's cross and was used in the second harry potter movie to represent King's cross for the flying car to fly over (third picture), as St Pancras looks prettier than King's cross :p

Just before we arrived at Euston, we went to take a picture in front of this statue outside The British Library.

Hello mum,

This was our trip with host mum to visit some of her friends who live in Helmsley, Yorkshire. On that day they just so happened to be collecting their new old car!  :p They are very into old fashioned cars, so us TVs had fun messing around at the show room. It was like a museum!

We then went in the new old car to look at a steam engine. I waited on the bridge to watch for it coming, then I went down to investigate. While it was stopped waiting for the other half of it to move, I climbed aboard to have a look round.

The last picture is of the friend's house we were staying in, it was very pretty.

Hi mums!
The other day we baked vanilla-raspberry cupcakes and it was very fun!

I helped opening the milk
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o223/niza_schit/ba2_zps513a1754.jpg

Raspberries are yummy!
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o223/niza_schit/ba5_zps10905bd8.jpg

We pour the mix
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o223/niza_schit/ba11_zps5e8a4a7d.jpg

And then we put them in the oven and wait for a few minutes...
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o223/niza_schit/ba9_zps205254d9.jpg

In the meanwhile Henry Bowers, Sidney L. and myself were trying to decide the color for the frosting
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o223/niza_schit/ba13_zps7e7e985a.jpg

I like light purple
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o223/niza_schit/ba15_zps7ee700c1.jpg

We took the cupcakes out of the oven and... mmmmm
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o223/niza_schit/ba18_zps040cc1a1.jpg

And this is how the looked when they were ready!

They were amazing!

We've travelled on the bus
