Today was Yuka’s last day in Forest, so I went in to say goodbye to her.
In the top-left corner of Forest, I saw a dig spot. There’s where I had buried Big Top’s time capsule, but the “X” spot wasn’t there the last time I looked. I wasn’t sure if this was something else, or if it meant the time capsule was ready to be unearthed. But I dug it up, and it was indeed the time capsule. It had a letter and an item inside–a vertigo shirt. But I got the feeling I wasn’t supposed to have done that… So I returned to Big Top.
He didn’t seem bothered that I dug it up. However…
Oh. Crap. I definitely wasn’t supposed to open it myself. And elephants never forget. Sorry, Big Top. I hope this hasn’t hurt our friendship permanently. I talked to him again to see if there was an option to give him the vertigo shirt; there wasn’t. However, he offered to give me a garbage pail for it.
Even though I wasn’t in the mood for jokes, I headed over to Club LOL. But that worked out fine, because Shrunk’s jokes aren’t funny. He did however, teach me the laughter emotion. It’s the most useful of all emotions, in my opinion, so I’m glad to have it.
Back in town, Tex offered me a wistful painting! Of course he wanted 7,056 bells for it, but that’s worth it if it’s a real painting!
I took it to the museum and donated it. It was indeed real!
My friend Wendy, who was unable to come to Forest yesterday, was trying out a different router today. So she invited me over, and it worked! While I was there, her friend Jordan came over as well. But then when another visitor came, we disconnected. I again went to Wendy’s town, but this time nobody else came. I met with some of her animals, including Kabuki.
Wendy’s house is right by the cliff overlooking the ocean. She wanted to see me jump off from there into the water, so I did.
And we both showed off our frogs that we caught earlier.
After I was done looking around her town, we headed over to Forest. I opened my gate and Wendy came over, as did Dash. We went into Kicks, and I was having a little too much fun with my sneezing emotion. It makes juicy sneezes!
Next, we headed over to Club LOL for some dancing. Nick also came over to visit, so he joined in too.
At one point, I was jokingly telling K.K. “more steam!” and right on cue, more steam came out.
After we were done, we went to my house for a bit. Dash called me outside. He was trying to pitfall me, but I didn’t fall for it. He did catch a blue Pikmin named Nick, though.
Before long, we went out to the island. Everyone got their rental wet suits on and we went swimming. At one point, Wendy and Dash kept getting stung by jellyfish. It was pretty funny.
And Nick pointed out that he was a blue Pikmin, swimming. (Blue Pikmin are the only ones that don’t drown in water).
Next up, we decided to do some tours (mini-games). First, we did a hide-and-seek tour, which was great for some quick, easy medals. And then we tried the easy hammer tour. Using toy hammers, you have to smack a machine that drives all around.
This was my first time doing this game, and it was pretty fun.
We smacked it 202 times.
And our last event of the night was a dragonfly-catching tour, which Wendy won.
After everyone collected their island catches from the basket and sold what they needed to sell, I ended the party. I definitely had a good time tonight.
