Beautiful bowls together at last

Dad finally got around to making a bowl of my lovely face as well, so now there is the perfect set, just like the two of us together.

Our bowls were very popular at the Christmas dinner.

My bowl - it's the best!

My face is so gorgeous, and you can see my little tail sticking out the top.

Here you can see my bill and feet which go over the edge of the bowl.

Here's half of the bottom of the bowl - with a tree with a tiny SP climbing it and the sun.

On the other half of the bottom there are yummy water bugs for me to eat.

Thanksgiving dinner

Dad cooked us a big dinner for Thanksgiving this year, so we all got to eat lots of food.

There was nothing left at the end except the paper turkey and pumpkin. Strange Panda tried to eat the pumpkin but he said it didn't taste good.

Marathon all finished

Here we are all kitted up in our marathon clothes - Strange Panda wore the shirt and I had a the number on.

After we finished they wrapped us up in a heat sheet to stay warm and gave us this shiny medal.

Here we are with our medal again.

New York Marathon - here we come

So we got to take another trip to the US. This time we went there so we could run in the New York Marathon. We stayed with Dad's friend from college, Carmen, in New Jersey.

A lot of the preparation involved waiting and trying not to get injured. So here we are checking our email.

We also did lots of resting of course.

And we made a new friend Chloe the cat who also liked resting.

We also watched a bit of TV. Anything to keep busy and not get hurt.

Fun in the sun

The family took a trip to the beach, where we got to do some nice resting, as you can never do too much.

The beach cottage was right by the ocean. We could look out the window to see lots of waves.

Unfortunately we couldn't see any sea-platypuses or sea-pandas from the window.

Visiting the grandparents

We got to visit our grandparents and do lots more resting at their house.

Room with a View

Our hotel room had a little balcony which we could sit on and watch the garden below.

There was a nice fountain which played music down below that we could watch too.

Off to the US

We packed ourselves in Dad's bag for another trip to the US.

When we got there I was very tired so I went to bed, but Strange Panda ran around the hotel room a lot.
