Cressing, England: Distance Travelled = 69,538 miles
Morning all,
Well, I'm back home again and chomping at the bit to get back on the road again. It's nice to come home once in a while, but it's much, much better to be on the road and having adventures. I couldn't wait to get back on the road, so I took myself off out into the garden, up the rockery, through the fence, had a nice chat with Mr Potts on the bench, then through the cat flap (with some difficulty!) and sat myself on the windowsill all ready to go on my next adventure. Very exciting!

Central Valley, Costa Rica: Distance Travelled = 74,999 miles
Hello!
I made it to my next adventure, I waited very patiently to fly out over the 'pond' to Costa Rica. This was going to turn out to be a real adventure, I could tell, the first creature I met was a Tarantula.... it was very, very scary, especially as I'm sure he was really bigger than me! Scared silly! Having calmed down a bit though I found the balcony in our hotel, the Xandari, and relaxed in a chair, before making friends with a stone Armadillo, who just happened to be the perfect size for me to ride on. This looks like being an awesome country! More very soon!

Tortugero, Costa Rica: Distance Travelled = 75,059 miles
Hello!
Todays adventure is from Tortugero, another wonderfully hot and pretty place! We stayed at the Manatus Hotel, which was fantastic! I love all the wildlife that I'm finding here and my travel companions are very good at finding and sharing it all with me! You can see me on a pottery Tree Frog Lampshade. We went out into the jungle and we saw all the great trees. We couldn't spend all day in the jungle though, not when the swimming pool at the hotel was so inviting. I found a perfect sized canoe to have a go in, which was next to the Manatus landing stage, but I wasn't allowed to go in the real water with my canoe, just in case.....

Arenal, Costa Rica: Distance Travelled = 75,144 miles
Hello!
We took a trip over to see the Arenal Volcano and stayed at the Arenal Volcano Lodge. You could hear the volcano rumble away every 20 minutes or so, it was really quite scary for a little teddy bear like me, so I wasn't allowed to go and see the volcano, but my travelling companions went to see the lava coming out of the volcano. (Little did I know what chaos was going to happen round in Europe not long after I went here!) From Arenal we took a little Natureair plane and flew down to the south of the country. The plane was really tiny, a 17.5 seater (I was the .5!) I made sure I belted myself in properly in the seat, I didn't want to get into trouble!

Lapa Rios, Costa Rica: Distance Travelled = 75,316 miles
Hello!
This is my last update from the wonderful country of Costa Rica. I've had such fun with my new friends, they've shown me some wonderful sights! A lot of birds too, I had to study the bird book very hard to recognise most of them. There were so many birds on the Osa Peninsula. You can also see me on the balcony with the Pacific Ocean behind me. There was a hammock, which I climbed into. It was a large hammock and I got to share it. It was very, very, very swingy though and I swung so much that I made myself seasick, sigh! My journey was made very special by my new friend Snoopy. It took us a while to get used to each other, but by the end of the adventure we were great pals, so I hope to go away with him again! Thank you for looking after me!!!! A new adventure soon.
