A Capy MUG!

Have you heard of Rodent Jeopardy? Well, if you haven't, it's just like Jeopardy but all about us Caps!! We had so much fun playing a few weeks ago, and the neatest part was talking to a real live Capybara - Caplin Rous. He's our new *hero*.

Here we are, getting ready for bed with our new "Bed Time 'Bara" mug that we won. Thank you Caplin! And thank you Caplin's owner!

If we don't get a chance to blowg again, Capy Christmas to all!

Warmth

Here's me, sleeping with The Mister. We often fall asleep like this
but somehow I always wake up on the floor. Ouch! It was -20 this
morning where we live and since The Mister is in Vancouver this week,
the bed is very cold! That Girl and I can't wait until Sunday when he
comes home.

Vancouver! Or maybe not.

The Mister is leaving on a business trip to Vancouver tomorrow. His suitcase is pretty full but we're still trying to sneak in! He's already thrown us out once. Hmmf!

I guess we'll stay here and keep That Girl company. It's snowng lots
where we live. Maybe we can make a snowcap!

My Favourite Book

Here I am reading my favourite book by the famous Bill Peet! Of course it's about a Capybara - we make great subjects! I was sad when Capyboppy had to go back to the zoo...but happy at the same time. He wasn't doing so well at Bill's home. As for me, I hope That Girl and the Mister keep me at their place where there are always lots of blankets to roll up in!

Shelly!

So after Singapore, I went to Vancouver, BC and met Shelley! Here we
are nuzzling (not kissing) in a friendly turtley capy way. Shelley's
owner is That Girl's brother. He had lots of animals for us to meet
but I think Shelly was my favorite! Turtles are nice and quiet.

Travels

Hiya!

I feel like I have so much to catch up on. But where to start? I found some old photos, maybe I’ll start with those. Yeah!

I’m lucky to be a well-travelled capybara. In the summer of 2008 in between my immigrating from Japan to Canada, The Mister took me on a trip to Singapore. Sometimes That Girl and the Mister don't take me on trips, like to Montreal or Hong Kong. But I'll blowg about that later. On this trip, I got to stay in the Shangri-La hotel. Yeah!

Here’s me testing out the pillows. They were comfy and well poofed for The Mister’s head:

Here’s me tasting the fresh lychee fruit in the room. It was delicious! Us caps, we like fruit!!

Here’s me, weighing myself after I ate all that fruit. I’m a little heavy. But imagine if I was skinny. I wouldn’t be cute at all!

And here's me and Singapore! Hello Singapore!! If I look flat, it’s because this photo was taken right after The Mister took me out of his suitcase.

That's all for now. A big thanks to Caplin Rous for getting me blowgging again!
