Almost There!

Hisako on the Plane

I am heading to Narita Airport.  I'm very excited.  Although I am not very hungry, I didn't want to miss this mango sorbet, because I love mangos.  Did you know mangos are very expensive in Japan? Gift giving is important in Japan. Sometimes mangos are given as gifts.  Department stores package them up nicely to be given away.

Meet Hisako

My name is Hisako.  I enjoy running and ice skating.  My favorite food is sushi (especially saba nigiri).  So, I am very exited to be going too JAPAN on my first adventure!!!  I have been researching Japan, and I hear there is sushi everywhere.  I am dressed in a yukata kimono, and ready to explore.

Hannah in Argentina

Hannah is excited to say Hola! from the capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires.  Hola! She and her friend took a 17 hour bus ride to Iguazu Falls located between Argentina and Brazil. Opposite of her last adventure in Niagara Falls, Hannah was very hot in 95 degree weather.  She was thankful of the cool spray at the falls. Sadly, when she was having a soda, a coati (a south american mammal, that reminds me of a raccoon)  stole the drink right out of her hand.  If you ever travel to this part of the world, watch out for coatis!

Hannah is the first of my passing dolls to travel to South America!

Hannah at Niagara Falls

Hannah is visiting Niagara Falls, with a new friend.  Niagara has three different waterfalls between America and Canada. The smallest one is Bridal veil falls. The largest is the Horseshoe falls which is mostly in Canada. The American falls are all in America. The falls are a source of hydroelectric power.  Hydroelectric power is making electricity with water.  Pretty cool, I learned more about it here. Hannah was glad to see this, because she cares for the environment.  And it also helps her charge her mini iPad. 

Hannah thinks that the Niagara falls are so beautiful against the snow.  Don't you?  

     

Hannah in Butterfly Wonderland

Hannah's last stop in Arizona was butterfly wonderland in Scottsdale.  In butterfly wonderland Hannah saw many butterflies and moths and learned a lot about their life cycles. Hannah enjoyed visiting the butterflies and made a couple of friends that were just her size!

Oops, forgot Stitch!

Hannah met Stitch while at Disneyland.  She was glad to see a local, and hang out for awhile.  Hannah loves the movie Lilo and Stitch and has watched it a lot.  Her favorite part of the movie is when all of the people from the story come together at the end and make Lilo's new ohana.
