I spent the morning with a crowd of little humans
walking to raise money for our school. We stampeded the streets with spirits
high - waving hello to friends, and taking in the beautiful sunshine. I even
got to stop and chat with some of the students I have met throughout my years
at Park School, which was super fun. It always amazes me how quickly those
human kids grow and I love that they never forget me no matter how big they
get. Could you imagine if I grew as fast and as tall as them? Ha ha! I'd really
be able to scare the daylights out of evil-doers then! :) On the other hand, I
wouldn't be able to leap from lily pad to lily pad with Phinn and Croak
anymore, so I guess it's for the best.
After our walking journey was over, I got to play
at the school carnival. It was so awesome! They had games similar to the games
we played at the carnival Lily Pad Hollow threw for us when we came back from
our grand adventure. They only difference was that they didn't have fly prizes
and instead of candied flies or fly fries, they served some authentic Mexican
Food (which all the humans went crazy for).
Walk A Jog (more like Walk A Fun!) |
Oh yeah! I almost forgot to mention the most
exciting part! While walking the course at a very swift pace, a giant black
panther suddenly crept up behind me. That's right, I said a panther! My heart
stopped as I set my sights upon the beast. I quickly reached for my cattail sword to
defend myself and the humans around me. Thankfully, I didn't have to use it
though because the humans quickly filled me in on how he was a nice panther and
was something called a mascot for our school. I trusted those humans, so I mustered up my courage, introduced myself to the big animal and found that
they were right! He was really friendly! He told me that his name was Shadow and not to worry because he had no intention of eating me. Phew! He even let me
get my picture taken with him.
Good thing I'm such a brave frog or else I would have found those teeth pretty intimidating. |
After a long and exciting day, I'm calling it a night and heading back
to Lily Pad Hollow to share all the stories of my Walk A Jog Adventure with
Phinn, Croak, and my family. See you on the next adventure!
