Checking in for 2009!

Hi Everyone!
As you all probably know, I am back home safely from my last round of adventures. It has been nice to stay at home and relax and hang out with the other girls for a while. We recently had a new girl join us, so I invited her to take a picture with me for this post. Meet Sonali!

I've been getting questions about when I'll be traveling again. The truth is, I'm not sure. My last round of travels was a long one, and as much as I love traveling, I missed home. Plus, so many Traveling Dolls got waylaid last summer, it made me a bit nervous. So for now, I'm going to put my travels off for a while. I am a Traveler at heart though, and I'm sure I'll be off again someday, to explore more new places and make new friends. Until then, thanks and take care!

It's time to leave and go home now. I had a really fun trip and made some nice new friends. I'll miss Susanna and I know she will miss me. Goodbye Rhode Island! Next stop: home!

Magic Time Travel Adventure

Tuesday June 17: One Last Time Travel Adventure

Today Kirsten hosted a Midsummer picnic. Midsummer is when the days are longest and there's no night. It's also a magic time when girls from all different times can come together and play.

Everyone brought something to the party. Molly and I brought fresh picked strawberries from her Victory Garden.


We had lots of food and good friends....

I really like these cookies Samantha's Mrs. Hawkins made.

It was so much fun to see all those girls! It was the best party ever!

Go Red Sox!

Later...

I helped my host's Dad cheer on the Boston Red Sox. I cheered and waved my banner, but they still lost. I can't believe it!

Fashion Show

Monday June 16

It was rainy and cold today and I decided to have a fashion show.

Another time travel adventure

1944

I went to visit Molly in 1944. She wanted to go roller skating but she only has one pair of skates. She said we could share and each take one skate. I was scared I would fall over, but Molly helped me learn to skate on one skate. We had lots of fun!

A mini adventure

Friday June 13th

My host took me to the center of the city where she lives. I stopped at the post office to mail some postcards.
Then I went to City Hall and posed with a statue of a Civil War soldier.


Then we went to the library. The old part of the library was built in 1938.

They are having a summer reading program called "Catch the Reading Bug!" The bug on the poster is reading a book called "Harry Swatter and the Order of the Flies."

I met a nice librarian who collects Raggedies. She liked hearing all about my travels and said it was an honor to have me visit their library. She also said I was beautiful!
