Big chicken and duck party in Emmen, Netherlands:)

Big party in Emmen, The Netherlands!


I already had told my Duck that a guest would come, but we did not expect 3 guests. Great party!!


What did they had much to discuss with each other. It was all cackle. Also at night. But that was no problem. How often does there a chicken family come along that has seen the whole world?

And what do they have spoiled me. As you can see they have cooked for me. Boiled eggs, fried eggs, pancakes with eggs, cake with eggs. It was a wonderful time:)

Unfortunately, it was time to say goodbye.
They are now on the way to the USA to Karen Boe.
I miss them already. and my Duck is all alone again.

Ms Chick and her company in Greece!

10" x 12" (25 x 30 cm)
When Ms Chick and her company came here I didn't believed it.  All the family gathered around the box to welcome her.  My cat, Merlin, didn't want to show it but he was sooo jealous of the attention we were showing to them.  He became more jealous in time when we started going around with her and Mr. Rooster and her friend.  Ms Chick seemed to have a lot of fun but her Rooster didn't stop talking even for a minute. That was a problem, especially during the night or very early in the morning.  Ms Chick was happy to find out that I am a vegan and she was not in danger here, at least with me. 
This painting is from a rest we took after a big walk. They are all discussing their experience here on a wooden seat at the city park of Katerini.  We took a lot of photos but it seemed to most of us that the above was the best one.
Below they are posing near a small lake by the bridge.  
We are so sad now that Ms Chick and her company are going to leave for the Netherlands.  But they will go on to an other adventure and keep traveling all around the world.  I am so jealous!...  Thanks for the visit Ms Chick and come back any time. :)

Chicken Paprika in Hungary!



The Travelling chicken and her company spent a few fabulous days in Hungary.

At first they were a bit concerned because they were told that Hungary is the home of Chicken Paprika,
a national dish, and it is ridicoulus to travel to a country where getting cooked is a real danger for a chicken.

But...they were relieved to know that their host is a vegetarian, so no real danger here.

After a few welcome drinks they even considered to pose with hungarian paprikas for a painting and laughed a lot.

Their official painting is with a grape and the second informal is with a pumpkin.



Here they are, enjoy!

TC & her entourage are now enroute to Greece!
