More Voyagers of the Week!

Morado as Voyager of the Week
This is Morado a previous winner of Voyager of the Week.Morado has clocked up more than 21,000 miles on his journey so far. Part of a family of six, he started out from New Mexico, heading up through America into Canada. From there he zipped across to Germany for a short stay before moving on to Japan and then Russia! His journey not only looks great on the map, but also looks brilliant in photos (these are just a few) - courtesy of some excellent hosting from ToyVoyagers members. Congratulations to everybody involved in the journey so far - we look forward to more!

Picado as Voyager of the Week
This is Picado a previous winner of Voyager of the Week.Picado is one of the famous Travelling Conejo family. The Conejos are famed for their adventurous nature, and ability to fit in with any situation: 'Coney' is with the US Army in Iraq, and his other siblings are travelling far and wide on their own personal journeys. Picado has travelled to Australia and Switzerland (see bottom picture for an amazing mountain landscape), visiting willow and annbear, but is currently travelling on the USATVT (which his mentor, wourpet, organises and manages). He's already seen New Mexico, Oregon, Virginia and Florida. He has a couple more states to see before he goes to seek adventure elsewhere. One thing is certain, where there is fun to be had, and places to see, Picado - or one of his brothers or sisters - will be there, flying the flag for the USA with his intrepid adventures.

December Travels





"24th December 2007 - Nürnberg, Germany and Miccosukee Village, Florida

"While Morado:and Florence enjoy the wonders of the famous Christkindle Market in Nuremberg, Germany -- Picado is learning about the Miccosukee natives of Florida."
Now if we could hear from Coney, Rosa, Blanche, Lucky-Ducky (who is still having an awesome time in Finland) anbd Azul before the year end it would be great.

Snow Angels in Virginia


Picado is back in the US and has been enjoying the snow in Virginia. Well -- at least he was enjoying making snow angels -- I am not sure he enjoyed cleaning the car window. Or are they snow bunnies?

Picado Mountain Climbing in the Alps


"Hurray! I have completed another life mission. What a happy bunny I am!! I went to Engleberg and did some mountain climbing. It was quite high up but very pretty with waterfalls and everything. I even went in a cable car but I stayed in the rucksack as it was very steep and a bit scary."

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.

Lucky-Ducky is enjoying an extended stay in Finland but is quite busy and updates his travelog frequently.
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.
Morado has arrived safely in Munich and will likely meet up with Florence when she arrives there. He will update his travel log soon.
Blanche is still staying with her host in Indiana but has travelled around to New York and Chicago and seems to be having a lot of fun. She has a lengthy post of photos on her travel log.
Azul is still missing and has not called home or checked in since he wandered off at the July 4th parade. There are no current updates in his travel log.
Rosa is winding down from her travels with Ballet Cindy and hosting other guests. She enjoyed her travels to Utah and Colorado and was excited to be made voyager of the week on Toy Voyagers. Her travel log has lots of info.

Rosa makes Voyager of the Week on Toy Voyagers


Congratulations to Rosa, our Voyager of the Week!

Rosa comes from a distinguished family of ToyVoyagers: she is one of six , the famous Travelling Conejo's of New Mexico.

Thanks to their mentor, wourpet, all six Conejo siblings are proving 'ones to watch' on our View Voyagers screens.

With brothers in Canada, Iraq (with the U.S.Army), and Singapore, another brother who has run off solo in search of adventure, and a sister just preparing to visit ToyVoyager Hosts, Rosa stays at home, showing us the sights and welcoming visiting ToyVoyagers.

Here she is with an 'earthship', an eco-friendly home made of recycled materials.

We wish her and her siblings well, and lots more adventures. We look forward to the Conejo family reunion when they are all safely back from their individual journeys.

The Toys are in Oregon

Travelog: Picado: '
22nd June 2007 - Veneta, Oregon, USA

Yippee! I am so glad to be out of that package. The flight was marvy but it was a bit dark in there. The crew only came round once with p-nuts and you know how hungry I can get on long flights.
My host has treated me to a welcoming party when I arrived and I got to meet some other toyvoyagers and was finally reunited with my brother Morado. What a great day it is.
Oregon is beautiful and I am already having a great deal of fun.

Travelog: Morado
18th June 2007 - Veneta, Oregon, USA
Well, I finally made it to Oregon. Not a bad voyage at all. A little dark in that envelope but not too scary for a rabbit. Upon arrival we stopped at the local town sign where I was visiting. My host is a funny one and told me to just "hang out" for a minute and she would take my photo with the sign. I didn't think she really ment "just hang there" but evidentally she did as before I knew it---there I was---hanging. Then we arrived at the home of my host. Inside, I was greeted with a wild and crazy welcome by this purple thing called an O-Rang. Her name is "Jelly" and once she calmed down a bit we became better aquainted. She looooooves purple and when she saw me she had to give me a kiss and a big Jelly Hug!

Morado has several travelogue updates here.

I would say they have both been enjoying their stay in Oregon. "

and Florence the Flamingo is in Austria

20th June 2007 - Vienna, Austria

Hello! What a great day! I arrived in
Vienna today and finally came out of my narrow dark envelope! I had a warm
welcome from Taro the bear from Japan, Alfie Langer and CK the 2 Australian guys
and Pooh from Taiwan as well as from my hosts. I'm really looking forward to my
stay here in Austria. As far as I know they have alot of water here - hope to
see some soon because it is really hot here, about 35 °C! Hugs, Florence

Picado: travel update


"9th June 2007 - Rowville, Australia

Picado has enjoyed a few months down under in Melbourne. He has been to the gym for a few work outs and has shopped in a few centres mainly for winter clothes . He likes to talk to the cat Neddy and dislikes the dogs barking . He enjoys watching Aussie Rules Football on cable TV . He did watch professional footballers .
He told me he is ready to move on and would like to go up North for Winter .

It's my understanding that following his lazing about Melbourne, Picado is on his way to Oregon. More when he checks in again."
