Yeti Plans a Trip to the Himalayas
Well, everyone, I promised you that I was leaving on another trip. It turns out that electric cars don’t last very long in the cold weather, so I’ll have to come up with another way to travel. Piggy has a company that makes incredible rockets but Taco & Little Guy 2 have been arguing about the best source of fuel. (Taco’s flames can get us all the way there, but his cost is too high. 10,000 gallons of hot sauce? I mean, really!). We might have to find another way.
Speaking of shocking news, I was appalled to see that I’m not the only stuffie left behind when people go on fun trips. You’ll meet Cubbins the bear shortly. Cubbins is the beloved stuffie that spent 40 years traveling, only to be abandoned this winter. What is happening to this world?!
Our humans just said “Bye! We’ll see you next year!” and then they just took off. We watched out the window for a LONG time. No sign of them returning. Cubbins was pretty sad, but you know what makes a good distraction? Traveling somewhere else! So Cubbins got invited along on our next adventure.
As you can see, it’s still brown and cold out there. We all agreed that it was time to get somewhere snowy…and fast! How about some glaciers? They look nice and cool.
OH. Taco just reminded me what happened last time. But, I ask you, who can resist sledding straight down a hill of ice and straight into water where you can make a really big splash? Exactly- no one can resist because it’s awesome! Was it cold? Yes. Was it worth it? Yes. Would I do it again? Yes. But Taco says he’s unwilling to rescue me and melt me with his fiery breath. Yeti popsicle forever. Not fun.
After some extensive discussion, we decided upon the Himalayas. Lots of cold & snow and I haven’t seen my Yeti friends in a long time. Bet they miss me.
There’s one issue with this idea. Our research said you have to train to climb the Himalayas. It takes lots of work. This may be a problem…
You have to have the right clothes- warm hat? check! (My other friends might need to layer up.) You have to be ready for snow- we say, “the more, the better!” You have to be able to climb well- did you see the 2020 Games? No problem. And, you have to be able to breathe at high elevations. Again, stuffie life is a great advantage- no breathing necessary.
Last big problem to solve. How to get there? Until we can agree about fuel for the rocket ship, which will happen NEVER, we need some transportation. This person looked pretty wise and magical. We asked for a ride, but they only travel by foot. That leaves us only one choice.
Anyone headed to Nepal? We’re pretty small and cuddly and only have one bag. We’re super cute and (mostly) well behaved. And, I’m pretty sure I can get Taco to leave his hot sauce behind….
