Day 55: Kremlin

Day 55:   Kremlin  Here's Woody in Russia.  He doesn't specify, but I believe from the architecture that this is the Kremlin.  He says the weather is miserable, but he was very excited to be able to see Sarah Palin's house from this location.  I also suspect his communications are arriving in no particular order, or else his tourist agency was really flighty in planning his itinerary.  

Day 54: Egypt

Day 54:  Giza and environs.  Woody visits the great pyramids in Giza.  He developed an interest in Egyptian artifacts after visiting a traveling exhibit at a museum when he was a fledgling.  He was especially intrigued by the items from King Tuft's tomb.  That's a rare mummified woodpecker egg.  What a great example of authentic avian ovum incised hieroglyphics.  

Day 53: Gay Paree

Day 53:  Notre Dame.  Woody arrived in Paris.  He's craving French bread but will avoid soufflés (abstains from eating eggs) and French onion soup, as he's suffered from BIRD GERD since the 'incident' with Maggie.  He hooked up with some local pigeons in the hotel lobby who frequent Notre Dame and had a private tour of the uppermost level.  Here he is on a ledge with a gargoyle enjoying the breathtaking night lights of Gay Paree.  Woody's acrophobia resurfaced, so he called it a night.

Day 52: Rome

Day 52:  Aunt Rosa lives on the outskirts of Rome and this pic was taken in her living room.  Woody mentioned his tail feathers stuck to the plastic furniture covers.  Zoom in to see portraits of the Pope and Sinatra...apparently required in all Italian bird houses.  Aunt Rosa is a wonderful cook and Woody was one stuffed bird when he left.  Tomorrow, he leaves for Paris.  

Day 51: After the Third Keg

Day 51:  Well, this is an awkward image of Woody and his drinking buddies exiting the train.   Woody promised his Aunt Rosa he would stop by if his travel path coincided with her Rome location.  Hoping he will straighten up and fly right before he calls her.

Day 50: Trip to Rome

Day 50:  This update arrived by carrier pigeon.  Woody is on a train to Rome with the bar hoppers from Germany with no internet connection.  He mentions they're working on their third keg.

Maggie Update

Many have asked how Maggie is doing,  Here's her most recent update,
