You didn’t know there was such a thing as an Italian penguin did you? Oh yes, and here’s proof…
I went with a couple of friends to Italy and we ran across this handsome bird, so of course I had to stop and pose for a photo. I’ll tell you more about my trip soon… spaghetti will never be the same again!

I finally got to meet some little blue penguins. You think I’m cute and tiny? These guys are just down right adorable! yeah, I said it, they’re cute! I’m still smaller, but so.
Here’s a better view of the penguins, instead of me and my oh so photogenic self.

Look very closely, this is me and a FAKE rockhopper penguin. I’m pretty sure, if I were standing this close to a real rockhopper penguin, he would either peck my head or dance on me. Thank goodness he’s just plaster and paint eah?
Look at me, I look like a tiny baby penguin - awwwwwwwww!

Hooray for modern stickie technology! Today I had my face plastered on the back of the camera girl’s car and man o man do i look good!
Even if you don’t like penguins, (which is an insane thought anyhow) you have to at least be curious why my head on here… don’t you?
We had the sign made at FastSigns in Greenwood Village, Colorado.
I have to say, although I was originally frustrated at the lack of any obvious interest or timely communication, I am very happy with the end result.
AND the two people that put the sign up on the car, kudos to them for a great job!
So if you see us drive by, take a picture and send it to me at mypenguintravels (at) gmail.com - make sure to include where you took the photo. We’d love to hear from you!
Note: if we are picking our noses, stuffing our faces with french fries or having any kind of “disccusion” with the crazy kids in the car - please remember, other than me, they’re all only human.

Yeah, I’m begging for compliments. But hey, can you blame me? There are penguins everywhere and I am only one (me and my clones, anyway). So I wonder, how cute and I really?
So what do you think???
This photo, by the way, was taken at a fabulous McDonald’s playland in Hays, Kansas. In the play area there was a big display of pass Happy Meal prizes. Apparently this Ty brand Penguin beanie baby was a prize - but I have no idea when that was.
I should really have a little voting booth here huh?

I thought this was a cool little mural. It’s painted on an electrical box behind some shops on Main St. in Breckenridge, Colorado.
I think it’s a great mix of images… not sure why or who created the art, but I really enjoyed finding it.

This morning I’ve been hanging out at the pool for a little bit while
my friend is taking swim lessons. Check out this awesome slide! - if
only I were tall enough to be allowed to go down… Darn pool rules…
No peeing and no sliding… Where’s the fun gone?

The sign says it all…
If I smell
it’s because
I’M A PENGUIN
and I eat fish
How obvious and silly all at once!
and to think, you love me anyway ~wink
note: this photo was taken at the Omaha Zoo by the Little Blue penguins.

I’ve been doing a little gardening lately - not flowers but actual things we can eat, like vegetables. Oh yes, maybe it’s not typical, but this penguin loves veggies! We set up a little 4′ by 5′ garden in the camera girl’s back yard and we planted a whole slew of things…
Corn
Red Lettuce and a 3 varieties of beans
Peppers
plus we also added pumpkin, cantaloupe, tomatoes and carrots. Yes, Yes, I know. I can hear you from here. The pumpkin alone can take over my tiny garden area. So be it. I just want to see if I can make things grown.. and so far, they all fit, so I’m keeping them all
Yummy is the goal and Yummy I shall have!
As things begin to grow I’ll share more gardening fun with you.
