Dweam come twoo Twip beginning

Aftew getting the phone call fwom Petey, I wealized I am ackshooally going to AFWICA!
Can you believe it?
Mango and Petey invited me to go along .
Supposedly , they think I'm the only one who knows how to contwol Lacie

CONTWOL hew ??? hehehehehehehehehehehe..do I look like a lion tamew????

Anyway. I'm soopew excited. I'm shoowe it will be twemendous fun. Lacie is my BFF and has nevew caused me the slightestest pwoblem..we will be wooming togethew.

I quickly thwew a few things in suitcases, then owdewed just a few things fwom the Safawi stowe.
My doowman was a little miffed when the delivewies took up the whole lobby.


Petey picked me up, and helped me load my things.
He's such a doll.
It's nice to be awound a guy who knows that shopping is an impawtant pawt of life.
You don't want to go unpwepawed, so he had almost no objections to swinging by Bewgdowfs to pick up a few last minute gifts fow ouw host and the othews on the twip
We had to take the covew off the back of his twuck to fit in evewything..
now it's off to the aiwepawt..I hope the plane is big enuff.



We wewe met at the hangew by Mango and Lacie

Mango was a little suwpwised by ouw pawltwy luggage and wouldn't even help wif the loading..Petey and Lacie and I had to do it all


Finally on boawd (thank dog, even though it was a cawgo plane, the cabin had a few luxoowies)
Petey was able to set up his camewa and get this shot of us

photo - Dexter, Baby Stan, Lacie, Tanner (I think I see his bindi dot!) Petey, and Asta and lovely leggy flight attendants Honey and Miss Kylie.

Aftew a delightful twip, we finally awwived on the Afwican continent and made ouw way wif the help of some fwiendly natives who gave us diwections to Max's House

these guys laughed at ouw outfits, and map which appeawantly was of nowf afwica instead of South Afwica..sheeeshhhhhh (I shouldn't have Tanner been in chawge of getting maps)

some natives wewe tewwibly aloof

othews wewe luckily taking a nap

finally we found a weally fwiendly nellyfant who happened to be a neighbow. He waved to us and said to just stay on this woad and we'd be at Max's in no time

we made it! we found Max's house!

MJ,( Mango's giwlfwiend), Khyra ( the bootiful floofy tailed giwl wif the magnificent smile), Honey, and Miss Kylie wewe aweady thewe
( i think they decided to make theiw own way, when they got tiwed of us unloading a few of ouw things)

Max and his live in Giwlfwiend Tammy wewe patiently waiting fow us on theiw fwont steps.

He was concewned when he saw ouw luggage, but I assowed him that I didn't need to bwing all the stuff in..I pwovided a tent fow a few essentials. and found the pawfect spot to set it up.

tah dah!!!!, I think this will do nicely

(Asta and a few essentials)
