May's first day

DAY 1:

Here is May's "train" arriving on schedule!
Image

Getting to know each other on the porch:
Image

Lili and Yoki lend May a jacket. May introduces them to her puppies!
Image

Yoki shows May her tricks. May thinks she's funny and a lil crazy and starts to feel at home.
Image

May missed Halloween because she was traveling so Lili and Yoki take her for a walk to see
the neighborhood decorations.
Image

May didn't like these neighbors!
Image

On the way back, they rest at a lake. May tells her 2 new friends all about her travels:
Image

This is Lili's favorite spot on the lake:
Image

A great ending for their first day!
Image

LATER THAT DAY:

May greets Cami from Canada who has come to live with Yoki and Lili and the rest of dal's family!
Image

THE WEEKEND:

Dal takes the girls
shopping at a doll show in New Jersey!
Everyone had fun but the girls first are overwhelmed
by the amount of dolls and toys!
Image

So much to see!
Image

The girls got to shop for all kinds of things:
Image

THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND:

We went to New York City to visit Genca where May gets to learn how to drive a Vespa!
Image

The city was ablaze with lights
Image

To see the rest of May's first day in Connecticut, the Doll Show and Manhattan see photos here:

Looks really pretty there!!!
Poor May, I felt bad about her missing trick or treating too... But sometimes holiday travel is just not convenient... :wink:

To organize a set in flickr, click on the "organize" tab on the top of your flickr photo page. That will bring you to "batch organize". Click on the tab at the very top that says "sets & collections" and you will see icons for all of your sets. Double click on the set you wish to rearrange. Then you can just drag the pictures around into the order that you want.

Unfortunately, there is (at least so far) no way to rearrange the photos on your photostream. You just have to be careful to upload them in the order you want them to appear...

I love your photos, Dal! May seems to be having so much fan visiting around your neighborhood. The fall colouring is making me so homesick, despite the fact that home is many years away...
Can't wait to see more!!! :)

I'm originally from Massachusetts, but I'd lived in Minnesota for many years.
I miss the snow too...

Lovely fall photos; the trees are certainly more brilliant than here in Ohio. Because of the drought, the prevailing colors are yellow-brown, red-brown and brown-brown. :c

But anyways, May looks like she's having a wonderful time in your care, Dal, and your girls are such friendly hosts! :>

Great photos, Dal. May seems to have a great time visiting and meeting her new friends. Love the autumn season where the leaves reveal in the beauty of the fall colors in our neighborhood. :daisy:
