It looks like the rainy season isn’t over quite yet, as it was raining again today.
Even though Egbert hasn’t specifically said he would stay in town, it appears that he’s safe now. That’s because Mint was talking about moving out. I didn’t try to stop her. Mint is okay, but it’s better her moving out than an animal I like a lot.
I played between 5:00 and 5:30 so I could check for Pete. I circled town once, no sign of Pete. Then I did it again and again…still no Pete (and no other visitors either). This indicated that the UFO would be coming! The UFO hasn’t come since April 19, which was two and a half months ago! That’s the longest UFO drought I’ve experienced since I started seriously hunting it down in early 2011.
And sure enough, at 6:02, the UFO flew by. My UFO hunting skills were surely rusty, but it flew by at a convenient place and time, so I had no trouble shooting it down.
I searched around and recovered the spaceship part.
Gulliver will be in my town tomorrow. I’ll exchange the spaceship part for one of his rare treasures. This is my 18th time shooting down the UFO and recovering the spaceship part. I’m hoping I will finally get the Metroid I’ve been wanting for years.
