Fasnacht 2010

The Fasnacht this year was in the end of February.
From the basket of the pushchair,
Harry could see the parade.
Although all he could see was the feet of the people...
But it really did not matter at all.
Because the most important thing to see is
his own master's feet anyway!
The sound of drums and piccolos used to scare Harry to death.
This year, Harry was not afraid of the big music at all.
He could sleep "peacefully" in the basket,
even when noisy brass bands were passing by.

Not familiar with the Fasnacht (Carnival)?
Then have a look at Basler Fasnacht 2007 in Harry's World Jouneys.

Warning

Grrrr! Grrrrr!! Ghrrrrrrr!!!
Harry is warning something by growling.
Harry's master rushed into the living room,
and found the baby playing with the radiator.
Harry also growls when the baby starts playing
with the rubbish bin and the electric cords,
which Harry himself is not supposed to touch.
However...
Harry does not growl when the baby is playing with books,
in which Harry has no interest whatsoever,
and therefore, he has never been told not to touch them.
Harry simply lies down there by the baby.
After all, books are not as dangerous as radiators,
rubbish bins, or electric cords.

Playing with the Baby

Harry wants to play with the baby.
He brings his rabbit and drops it in front of the baby.
The baby, of course, tries to get the rabbit.
But just before the baby is able to reach it,
Harry snatches the rabbit and skips away.
To Harry's surprise, however,
the baby is learning to move faster and faster each day.
Sometimes the baby is quicker than Harry,
and would not give the rabbit back to Harry for the day.

Basket

Harry used to be carried in a big carry bag.
Now, for Harry's master, the baby is a handful.
So Harry stays in the basket under the pushchair instead.
This way, Harry will be still accompanying his master
pretty much to everywhere she goes!

New Year in Japan 2010

Harry and his family flew to Japan for the New Year.
Harry did not have much to do there.
He was mostly watching over the baby at home.
Yet in the morning and in the evening,
he went for a long walk in the neighbourhood.
There is a large shrine near the house.
Usually, there are not many people in the shrine,
and it is indeed pleasant to walk around there.
But on the first three days of the new year,
there was a flood of people moving towards the shrine.
Some people stopped by to say "Hello!" to Harry.
Harry wished everybody who kindly greeted him
a happy new year with lots of love, laughter and treats!
