Sherpa Syon

Yesterday, Mommy, Daddy and I climbed to the Everest Basecamp in the Himalayas. Though all of my gang wanted to come along, only Kicky the Kung-Fu Tiger was allowed, to protect us from the Abominable Snowman with whom he has grappled in the past and won (so he says)! We did this after Daddy came home from work. We packed quickly and off we went. Mommy packed her case and mine with warm clothing. I clearly remember her telling Daddy to pack his woollen socks but Daddy forgot (Mommy insisted I make this clear). Which is why, as you can see in this picture Mommy's taken of Daddy, Kicky and me in our tent in the mountains, Daddy has no socks. And because Daddy had no socks to protect his feet from frostbite, we couldn't climb to the top although we had been making great progress. We didn't see the Yeti either though I do believe Kicky could've wiped the glaciers with him. Easy. He is a battle-hardened Himalayan Tiger after all. Anyway, we came back home before midnight because it was way past my bedtime. Daddy went back to work today but not before promising me another shot at Everest when we've got our socks in order!

  1. What the...?!? :D :D

    I'm glad Kicky's been good company. He does fight Abominable Snowmen, ever since he left for the UK, Abominable Snowmen are thick on the ground. Some people are talking about asking Kicky to come back.
