The International Guinea Pig Adventure

[Percy's Mom]

Anything would be acceptable I think. $1, $5, $100, whatever. As long as you donate, you're all good. No one but the donator and Teresa needs to know how much it was.

OK I am on Charlies map.

Well so far Charlie is making 14 stops across the world. This is so exciting I am kind of jealous now.

[Piglet]

Bromers, I'm kind of near you, so is there a point of sending him towards my way?

How about $5 or $10 - he could have just a couple of days' stopovers in each place so he zooms round quite quick - I don't have any particularly interesting sights round me, but will get a photo of him by a mountain or something! Would love to take him to Loch Ness but it's too far! I will draw up a list later this evening about who can send to who!

I live in Savannah, GA and just signed the map. Maybe a date to sign up needs to be set and then for us here in the US we can go state by state. If there are 5 people in VA he doesn't need to leave VA until the last person gets him see? He must end at T's don't you think? What was the plan as far as that goes? I am working on a surgical procedure paper and am up to 9 pages so I am a bit daffy right now. I was thinking about putting a postcard in the scrapbook. It doesn't need to be a huge book at all. Who gets the addresses etc. Sorry I am very anal and am trying to figure out how this works. I'll shut up now and wait for answers. Just tell me what to do ok?

Piglet, I'm sure it would be fine to send him your way as well. I'm sure you and bromers don't do everything the same, just because you live in the same state or whatever. You could even just take charlie to your favorite resturaunt, and have a picture taken with him for the scrapbook.

Also, with the scrap book idea in mind, we could also do a website... kind of like a travel blog and post pics in that as well, so we don't take up a lot of room on this site. I use xanga for an everyday blog, we could probably rig something up on there, in that everyone who gets charlie changes the password and sends it on to the next person (just so anyone doesen't just go in and mess with stuff). I don't know if that would work, but it would also benefit the people who don't want to give out home addresses, therefore can't participate, and they could follow the journey in the travel blog.

I'm in Charlie can visit my four very well behaved pigs here in Norway and we will take him to the World's End. But if he could get a little used to travelling first, that would be nice, 'cause then I get to finish my exams and actually have time for it.

[KPIGGY]

Just had an idea! For the passport we could use a mini note book and cut out the postage stamp and post mark when you recieve Charlie and stick it in his passport, with your name and country next to it.

[daftscotslass]

So how about UK - continental Europe - Australia - US, ending in California?

I tried to make the passport today and I wasn't very good at it, so if anyone is a dab hand with the old GFX (Slap!!) please feel free.

I will take a shot at it Daft. I will let you know how it turns out.

Of course there is we live in totally different parts you life in the nice area and I live in the bad area. Also Charlie can have two different religions and races on his trip to london you and me!

Daft I think that order sounds good.

Sorry Laura forgot to answer this. Of course you're not too out of the way, the more countries the better. All you should be prepared to do is post internationally, make a wee donation to cavyspirit and take some pictures!

[bromers]

How about creating a Blog for charlie and we can document his travels across the world and we could explain him to who ever see's the blog and then a link here.

[Binas Cavys]

I'am signed up, but my parents may not let me do it.... But I could take Charlie to the Aquarium, Busch Gardens, Gameworks, and so many other places! I hope Charlie can come down to Florida!

[JennG]

I'm alittle confused but what else is new. Someone just tell me what to do and I'll do it.
