Lichtenfels, Bavaria, Germany - 12th January 2012
By: Takata
Hello world!
I arrived at home! My best friend, the big mouse Knabber (with the cool Harley Davidson t-shirt ) opened my box. He gave me "5" to welcome me. I showed the gifts I got by my dear host.
Thank you soooooooooooooooooo much, agentsmith
I told them about my adventures and maybe, there were some cock-and-bull stories
Then I was introduced to the TVs currently living here. I shared the chocolate i brought with me. Waffels, the penguin prefered the liquorice.
Tonight we´ll have a welcome party and tomorrow I will compose the sail to Hamburg! Great, I am so excited!

Hamburg, Germany - 27th January 2012
By: Perrydotto
Arrr!
Ahoy, everyone, I've finally arrived!
Perrydotto was very happy to see me and even her soon-to-be voyager pal, Plaudagei, was there to greet me! That was quite nice, and you know, every pirate in training needs a parrot, right?
The weather had a surprise for me ready, too - Snow! Perry tells me that snow days are very rare in Hamburg and especially rare this winter; in fact, this is the first proper day of snow they've had. Quite a shocker for me
You will hear more from me soon, dad! I can't wait to see what Hamburg has to offer for a pirate bear!
Yours truly,
Erol

Arrr and Ahoy, Erol here!
I'm sorry you haven't heard from me much. Perry was very ill and her boyfriend was too busy with looking after her so I had to stay at home. I only know of scurvy, so I couldn't help much, sadly. At least Perry got visitors sometimes and I could chill out with them
Yesterday, however, was very exciting! Perry wanted to make it up to me and took me to a very special event - A public protest! I asked what it was about and learned that the people protested against ACTA, a bill currently discussed in the European parlament. This bill could cut people's rights in the internet and broaden copyright laws in ways that would violate free speech - I don't think I understood all of it, but I think people should be allowed to keep their rights, so I was glad I came to protest! And it has to be a serious matter because many other people thought the same!
I was very happy because I actually met some fellow pirates I'm sure you can imagine my surprise! I was told they weren't actual pirates, but rather political ones, but that counts, doesn't it?
Look - Even the statue of Gotthold Ephraim Lessing participated in the protests!
More pictures I had a stellar view!
Find me!
Here I am
To calm down and chill out, we later went to a meeting with a couple of people Perry knows from a forum. These people call themselves "Bronies" and apparently like this new show, My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. The pony figurines were nice enough to me, but I think the show needs more pirates!
Considering how much we walked that day, we definitely earned this nice, big meal!
You will definitely hear more from me soon, everyone. We still got the harbour to visit and everything! Color me excited
Yours truly,
Erol

Ahoy and arrr, everyone! A quick update from me!
Sadly, Perry is still too sick to go out with me and she feels very bad about it. I'm telling her it's alright, but she won't listen! Sheesh
Well, to be honest, the weather has been horrible the past week so I doubt we would have had much fun at the harbour anyway. (Though I think a proper pirate needs to be able to take bad weather in stride!)
While she had to stay in bed, I decided to make myself useful (because playing videogames with Plaudagei all the time gets boring ...) and did the dishes
I rewarded myself with some coffee because I'm sure all pirates love coffee!
Woah, look at all those spices!
Hey, I met the Mario brothers! ... I think.
Later, Perry's boyfriend took me outside for buying groceries. Not quite the harbour, but hey, I was outside! (the weather IS terrible though. Ew!)
I had fun on this ride, though it should have been a pirate ship instead of a helicopter, don't you agree?
Sadly, this is just Perry's neighbor's scooter - I would have loved going for a ride!
(Oh, does this photo make my butt look big? )
Later on I finally convinced Plaudagei to go and visit you all back home! I must say, he's a very outgoing and talkative bird, even a bit hyperactive, but when it comes to becoming a toy voyager he's quite a chicken
He says he will go on his way at the end of this week - Brace yourselves, folks
I'll visit this damn harbour this weekend, I'm sure! Chi (and hopefully Perry, too, if she's feeling well enough) will go to another protest on Saturday and it's close to the harbour - So there's no way around it this weekend, even if it rains cats and dogs!
I can't wait to show you all the photos then
See you soon - I miss you!
Yours truly,
Erol

Arrr and ahoy, everyone!
You won't believe it but I fulfilled one of my lifetime goals - I saw the Rickmer Rickmers!! It was so exciting I can barely contain myself! This weekend was definitely the best weekend EVER!
First things first, though - Perry and Chi took me to another protest before we could go to the harbour. We protested against ACTA again; I'm sure you know all about that by now so I'll spare you the details. But boy, does it feel good to do something for justice!
Then we went to the harbour! The weather could have been better but at least it wasn't raining cats and dogs anymore.
Aaah, that's the place to be for a sealover like me!
And then I saw her - The Rickmer Rickmers!!
Now I would post all the wonderful pictures we took, but ... well, there's a reason I'm posting this update this late: Perry had to discuss the rights to publish the photos with the people in charge of the Rickmer Rickmers. Sadly, as it turns out, Perry is not allowed to share the photos online! It's such a shame, I wanted to show the world what a wonderful time I had! At least I'm allowed to share the pictures in private, so you at home can look at them.
I'll sneak this one in, but pssst, don't tell the cops!
Later we took a trip with the ferry - Hamburg offers ferry trips as part of their normal public transportation system, isn't that amazing?
It was quite cozy inside the ferry, I must say.
I prefer to be outside in the wind, though! You know, I AM a pirate
Perry told me that this is the new opera house being built - She thinks it's quite ugly and I must say, I agree! It looks like a cheese grater ...
That was my trip to the harbour! I had a blast
Soon, Perry told me, I will have to venture on and leave her to stay with my next host. I'm curious what I will do next!
Best wishes to everyone at home!
Yours truly,
Erol

Ahoy and arrr,
this is my last entry from Niendorf, Hamburg! Chi escorted me to my next host, Scilly, and I'm sure I have great adventures ahead of me!
After a last cookie dinner with Plaudagei and Celestia, I said goodbye.
Thanks for everything, guys! I sure hope you will read my logs in the future
More soon, everyone!
Yours truly,
Erol
