Unfortunately, it was raining in Forest today. I went around town and found the daily money rock. For the second time, it gave me gems instead of money.
When I went into the museum to get my fossils identified, Blathers was deep in thought once again. I asked him what was wrong, and he said it was about his friend Brewster. He said Brewster was a master brewer that didn’t have a place to open up a coffee shop. But he remembered that I was the mayor, and he made sure a cafe was added to the list of available town projects.
Next, I headed over to Club LOL to get another emotion. This time, Shrunk taught me the sneezing emotion. The sneezes you can perform are nice and juicy.
Then, at 8:00, I opened my gate to visitors for the first time. Chris, Taylor, and Peyton came over to visit. We went into Club LOL to do some dancing.
After everyone did a little shopping, we headed over to my house.
As Taylor burned to a crisp, I couldn’t help but point out how annoying it is to have to use the touch screen to type, as opposed to using a USB keyboard in City Folk. It’s so much harder to communicate this way.
And not only that, but the question mark is hidden away on page two of the symbols page. It should be easier to access. Also, I must say I hate how messages are only displayed for about five seconds, as opposed to 30 seconds in City Folk. If someone types a message as you start going through a door, forget about it. It will be gone before you come out the other side.
Anyway, after Taylor was done burning, I shot him.
We then took a trip to the island.
Everyone got rental wet suits so we could all swim. I had to laugh as I witnessed Peyton getting stung by a jellyfish.
We started to do an island tour to catch dragonflies, but we got disconnected as soon as the tour started. So I reopened my gate. Chris and Taylor returned, but Peyton didn’t come back. Instead, Dash came over to visit.
Molly asked for a butterfly, and I gave her one. She rewarded me with a rocket. Sounds like a fair trade.
Once again, we headed out to the island for a dragonfly tour. This time, we didn’t get disconnected. But I didn’t do very well, I could hardly find any at all!
After that, we did an easy hide-and-seek tour. On the way, I saw an unusual fruit, so I shook the tree to see what it was. It’s a lychee.
And I spotted a new animal, Ken–an unusual-looking black and purple rooster.
But the hide-and-seek games were very easy and quick. We earned 7 medals each for the easy one and 9 medals each for the regular one. And I just had to take a picture of a windmill I saw while in the game area.
We stopped in Yuka’s house to say goodbye to her. Although she’s not packed yet, so she’ll still be in town tomorrow too.
Chris left around 9:45 and Joey came in to replace him. We went in for a quick dance at Club LOL.
I then ended the party at 10:00. I went over to town hall to see how much the cafe would cost; it’s 298,000 bells. Yikes.
I chose a spot for it (near the center of town) and paid almost half of the amount due.
At this point, I was done in Forest for the night. But I wanted to make a stop at my friend Wendy’s town. But as much as I tried over and over again, I kept getting error message 018-0512. Wendy and I both tried restarting our routers, turned off other Wi-Fi devices, and tried everything we could think of…but still, no luck.
Well that’s all for now, thank you all for visiting. I’ll be back tomorrow with more.
