Panda was looking at a picture of the Mexican flag on Mom’s laptop. “Dude,” he said, as if to nobody in particular. “It looks like this serpent got picked up by a giant eagle and brought to the top of some nopales! Just like what happened to me with the giant condor when we went …

Penguins in Patagonia
"Let's go to the train station!" we exclaimed in unison. We had reached the bottom of the mountains at Machu Picchu just as the last train for Patagonia was getting ready to leave the station. The view was breathtaking, and for awhile we rode in silence, enjoying the scenery. Panda spoke first. "Remember when we …
Amazon Prime
"Dude, did Mom say you could do that?" I didn't look away from the computer as I answered Panda's inquiry. "No, but she left the computer on Amazon, so I thought I'd check out the cat fountains since mine doesn't work anymore." Panda looked doubtful. "What do you mean, it doesn't work? I thought Mom …
A Virtual Adventure
"Hey, that looks pretty good!" Panda seemed pleased at my compliment. "It's my Hawaiian shirt for when we go to Hawaii," he replied.

A Trip to Cape Town
"Hey Foster, how do you like my new cape?" Panda's question had awakened me from a deep sleep. "That's not a cape," I replied. "It's Daddy's robe. You know Mom always keeps it on the bed for a blanket. And what do you need a cape for anyway?""It's for when we go to Cape Town. …
Friends in the Philippines

"You know, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians. Are you memorizing the books of the Bible?" Panda shook his head. "No, not Philippians, the Philippines!" he responded, sounding …
Out of Egypt
"Foster, what are you doing?" Foster appeared not to have heard my question at first, so I asked it again, jumping down from where I had been sitting on the windowsill behind him. "I'm practicing my sphinx pose," came the reply. "Don't you think I look like a sphinx? "I hesitated, trying to recall if I …
Fun at Yosemite
"So what do you think, Bro?" We were in the sewing room with Mom, and I hadn't been paying much attention to Panda until I heard his question. I looked down at the chair below me and was amazed to see Panda, proudly showing off yet another new outfit! "Mom made it for me," he …
A Trip to Monterey Bay
"So Foster, what do you think?" I pondered for a minute before answering. We were sitting in my chair in the front living room, not long after Mom had made Panda his sweat suit. Panda had been thinking of somewhere we could go for an adventure, and had finally settled on Monterey. "It'll be perfect," …

I replied, realizing I was kind of sleepy myself."Remember when we were in Peru and you fell into that cactus?" Foster asked. I had to laugh. "Yeah, that was kind of scary," …
