World Cruise, Day 1
Hello all,
M. B. here.
Well, our boat left the dock today, and our fine little city is becoming a faint memory as the fog sweeps it up, cloaking it in the distance that becomes ever more far away.
Andy and Moira are looking more relaxed than ever and I hear them constantly murmuring things like "yeah for no work!" and "well, it's not like I have to get up for work in the morning" that sort of thing.
Burgess seems happy, though I have this feeling that he is a bit put out that there isn't a bed for him (I made him a nice little place in the dresser drawer in my room, but I am not sure if it was quite what he was expecting).
I must say, I miss our little town already, but after reading about eight issues of "guy chase adventure magazine," eating the salmon luncheon, and joking around with Andy and Moira, I can't say that this isn't a welcome change of pace.
The boat is so large, I can't help but wonder if we will run into people we know. It's a small world after all.
Well, cheerio for now,
from the Pacific Ocean,
--Mr. Bob!

Mr. Bob Going On A Cruise!
Yes, it's true friends,
Yours truly here. I am indeed tagging along with those precious Petals (Andy and Moira, natch) on their long-planned world cruise.
Oh what excitement, what splendor! Just what our little makeshift family needs--a respite from the drudgery of every day life, full of adventure and relaxation. Oh, and I am bringing Burgess Squirrel too (to be honest, he insisted. I am not telling Andy and Moira cuz I think Andy would object, but I am just putting him in my suitcase).
Well, I must go pack...
Cheerio!
-M. B.
