Crafting at Camp Hoop La Hoo Ray

Did you know us plushies go on Summer Camp every year? My sweet friend Hope has a camp site called Camp Hoop La Hoo Ray and we all go there have fun by the lake, eat delicious food, sing songs and tell stories by the camp fire, play sports and do Arts & Crafts. Me and lil Bamboo are the Arts & Crafts Camp Counselors and we do lots of fun projects. Me wanted to show you what we did at Camp this year. Maybe it fun for you to try some of these crafts too.

Cookie At the Museum part 15: Kaap Skil & Schipbreuk- en Juttersmuseum Flora

O boy! Me totally forgot about these two museums me went to on me Summer vacation LAST YEAR. Me thought me was done after part 9 and then Berry said: ‘But we went to Kaap Skil with Frights and to the Juttersmuseum with Bamboo in the Summer!’ Also, she said it with a face palm, because she almost forgot about it too. Hihi. Silly huh that when it not a workthingy you can forget about these things so easily. Well… during our Summer vacation on the island of Texel we went to two museums and had a blast! So prepare for LOTS of fun pictures! (pictures by Berry de Nijs)

It was also the first time Berry went to see the bigger sharks (and she no was scared) in an aquarium. Me posed with some sharks too. It was amazing. Wanna see the pictures? Then read along.

Cookie At the Museum part 13: Van Gogh Museum

Me think Vincent van Gogh is a beautiful artist. Me love the colours he used in his paintings and his own, dreamy style of painting. Did you know he was really good in making selfies? Yes me know we do it all the time with the camera on our phones. But when Vincent was alive, you only could make a selfie by painting yourself. Hihi. But artists also painted portraits of their artist friends. And that is exactly why Berry took me on a work thingy to the Van Gogh Museum last February. (pictures by Berry de Nijs)

Cuddling elephants again!

O me COOKNESS! Me still no believe me saw me elephant buddies again last week! Berry and me went by train to The Hague and there they were. We went for cake and coffee to a café and me just had to hold them. Maybe a bit too tight, but it been a while. Me last saw them on our Madurodam trip (remember). That a loooong time ago. So this was AMAZING. Me was so happy, me almost forgot to eat cake. Almost that is, hihi. (pictures by Berry de Nijs)
