Lucky-Ducky swims through Iowa with Frogger

Lucky-Ducky and Frogger took a road trip to Iowa and although they enjoyed the beauty of the rocky mountains they got really excited about all the puddles in Iowa.

Their travel journals contains information on Eisenhower Tunnel in Colorado and the Platte River Archway in Nebraska.

They saw several other neat places too -- check it out.

"1st March 2008 - Porvoo, Finland

My host's girls threw me a goodbye-party along with their furry friends. After 7 months with this family it's time for me to go home. They have been truly nice to me and showed many different places - as you can see from the photos. I'm sad to leave them but happy to go home to tell about my adventures personally (and give the souvenirs I bought). Maybe I'll meet these people again someday, at least I hope I do. My host wants to say something too:"

Quack! ooops I mean, hello! These 7 months (he arrived in July 2007) with Lucky-Ducky have been very interesting and fun. He has been a good guest, a fun guest - actually we consider him part of our family now We wish him a good journey home and yes, who knows, maybe we'll meet again one day!

Updates from Coney and all

Early this evening Coney called from Kuwait to let us know he will soon be arriving in New Mexico for his R&R before moving on to his next deployment. He will also be updating his travel log. Since we know where he currently is I thought it would be good to update on everyones activities.

Florence the flighty flamingo from Florida was supposed to have left Prague and headed to Germany a few weeks ago but she has not reported in yet. Hopefully she has not gotten lost and we look forward to a travel log update.

Picado last reported in from Singapore and was leaving to go to Switzerland. We are waiting to hear news of his arrival and an update to his travel log.

We took a small ride on a train Only to the next stop and back - but I was on a train! The photos are from the Helsinki Main Railway Station and it's surroundings.
