Travelog for: Grouchy

It was warm outside, so BlackCat decided, that it is time for some culture...really? I hoped she was joking, but she wasn't. We went to a museum called "Coal mine Nachtigall"...oh my...but okay, I will show you the photos we made...I guess you can see that I wasn't really happy there.


A coal train








On this kind of boat the coal was transported over the river Ruhr!




A visitors coal mine.

BlackCat went inside, but we weren't able to go with her, so here are some photos without me! Hope you still like them!








Coal (the black shining part of the wall is coal).

Believe it or not, but today a new toyvoyager arrived here...BubbleGum is his name and he is a little bear...and again a new face and a big welcome...I really hate it.

Today the car of BlackCats boyfriend needed new winter tires, so we all took a drive to an industry part of the town to let the garage change the tires.

I was so bored, I can tell you.

But we had a walk (in the rain...it was RAINING while we had the walk) and saw some things we made photos with...


The tv tower...




The school for journalists.




There is the garage...


And the tv tower again.

Wow....that's a long day, isn't it...3 updates on one day...but okay. After changing the tires we drove to Rheinberg. We wanted to visit a zoo for reptiles. But inside we weren't able to make photos with us...the glass of the terrariums was reflecting too much, so we made some photos of some animals and one in front of the zoo. Hope you'll like them.

Today we went into the inland water transportation history museum of Germany. It is in Duisburg. I am sorry, that we won't comment each picture, but BlackCat made 192 photos of toys on that day, so please don't be angry, okay? If you have any questions, you can ask her!
































































The museum from the outside.

After visiting the museum we went over the street in front of it to see inland water transportation live on the Rhine.

Today was the day of a lot Goodbyes.

First we said Goodbye to Sanji, SamSam and Ceryni.



And then to Merembe!

Today we welcomed another guest here at BlackCats home. SchnuffiVEC is the new one...and again one more...

Weather wasn't that bad today, so BlackCat forced us to have a walk at the river Ruhr...it was a long walk and my feet were hurting, but no one listened to me...



























We found a little chapel on our walk and made some photos with it as well.

Today we welcomed Vanilla at BlackCats home. It wasn't an easy day for BlackCat as one of her budgies had to go over the rainbow bridge...but he was really ill, so BlackCat deals with it. I hope she will be more happy in the next days so we can go out again. But she already told us that she has a lot prepartions to be done because on Saturday is her birthday. So I guess we will help her with that.

Today we welcomed 2 other ToyVoyagers. They were at a host for some months already and BlackCat contacted her through Email and now she has the toys with her. I hope we'll have fun with Luke and Bumba.

Hey,
today is BlackCats birthday and we had to help her bake muffins. I guess she is just too stupid to do it on her own, so we had to help...















Later that day we were forced to sit near the presents and help her look inside...oh how I hated that...

...and again she forced me to go with them and I had to look at a truck with the writing "Coca Cola" on it...how crazy are the people here?





I am still angry...

Hey,

today a new toy arrived...again...Ele...





I really hope I can leave here soon. So much toys...

Grouchy

Today it snowed...just a bit...but it looked bad ! I hate snow. Really. Good that it melted away really fast.

I hate to say this, but today I was happy for a short moment. I was allowed to watch the Smurf Christmas movie here and I was in it. I made some photos for you, so you can see my friends the other smurfs and myself.







I am the one with the black scarf !



























What a nice day !
