Hornsby sent me a table lamp in the mail today, along with this letter. Apparently he is just now discovering that electricity exists.
Nook’s Cranny had an arcade combat game (a space shooter) for sale, so I bought it and placed it in my arcade at the amusement park.
Claude the rabbit was over at the campsite, so I said hello. But I had absolutely no interest in asking him to move in.
Saharah was in town, and I bought an imperial wall and crop-circles flooring from her.
Lopez asked me to participate in a treasure hunt, and I agreed to play. For a moment, I thought it was going to be the easiest treasure hunt ever!
But that buried item was a fossil, not the treasure. 😀 It took me just over three minutes (of the six-minute time limit) to find the actual treasure, but it ended up with me scoring some free fishing waders.
Celeste showed up later on, and she gave me a D.I.Y. recipe for a flying saucer! Yes! It’s nice to get something besides wand and Zodiac furniture recipes from her for a change. I was starting to wonder if the space items were even in New Horizons, so I’m glad to see they do exist after all. 😛 I made sure to craft my first flying saucer. It seems to hover higher in the air than it did in the older games.
While diving, I encountered another really fast sea creature. It was tricky to track it down, but I eventually did. I caught my first gigas giant clam!
After donating it to the museum, I continued diving. My first scallop of the day did not trigger Pascal for some reason (even though my pockets were not full and I wasn’t close to shore). But the 2nd one did trigger Pascal. He gave me a pearl for the scallop, and he mentioned whales (but completely devoid of context).
Shortly after that, I wrapped up my game for the night. See you next time!
