Recklinghausen

Dad still has no luggage. Mouse still does not think that is a problem. They both spent a lot of time at Peek and Cloppenburg department store buying a couple of days worth of clothing (for Dad, not mouse.). They found this cool riding toy on the way back to the hotel.

Don't let the mouse use the weapon!

Mouse plays with the Decor at the Best Western Parkhotel Engelsburg in Recklinghausen. Dad thinks it is a great hotel. It is a former 17th century manor house.

Where is Dad's Luggage? Mouse only brought a carry on (oh, wait, he was a carry on!)

This is Germany?

Right now, I am over the Atlantic Ocean (in theory!). My flight to O'Hare took so long to finally leave Houston that I would not be able to make my connection. I am trying again tomorrow, this time through Newark. Mouse seems a little burnt out, but is expected to still make the trip.

Hangin' at IAH

Dad and Mouse's long day has already started with a delayed flight. Something about securing the cockpit door so mice could not get through it - we are not sure what the concern is.

Mouse helps Dad catch up on email.

Mouse tests the new Zhu Zhu pet track before he and Dad take off on another adventure
