Nini and Sylvain are going on a holiday! How exciting. They have been invited home by their parents for a family get together. After a very long plane trip, the little mouse and the little rabbit finally arrived in Paris.
They arrived at their hotel room an hour or so later, just near Montparnasse, and hurried to the window to take in the view. ‘It is so nice to be home’ said Nini. ‘Let’s climb onto the roof and get a better look at this beautiful city!’ They climbed up and looked out over the city, taking in all the turrets and chimney stacks in this magical world.
On their first day, they walked and walked and walked around the streets of Paris. They jumped on the Metro and went to Montmartre and then they walked some more! They wanted to see all the lovely toy shops and visit all their friends to see what they had been up to.
It was great to catch up, but it was a long day. After a lovely dinner of cheese and red wine and crusty bread, they fell exhausted into their beds and slept a deep sleep, filled with dreams of a picnic in the Luxembourg Gardens.
The next day, they caught the train to Nort sur Erdre, where they were meeting up with their family for a well overdue reunion. They were so excited to see the countryside near their family home.
‘I can’t believe we are nearly there!’ said Sylvain, rubbing his eyes!
And there they spent a lovely few days with their wonderful big family. Playing petanque in the gardens. . .
Boating on the idyllic Erdre River. . .
Picnicking in the church grounds and taking in the sights of Nort sur Erdre. . .
And spending time with their family in the beautiful gardens of Moulin Roty. . .
They loved catching up with all their brothers and sisters and hearing about their news. They warmly invited their family back to Australia to visit them. ‘You must come!’ said Nini, ‘We have the most beautiful beaches and bushland’. The other animals agreed that they would come soon, and finally it was time for Nini and Sylvain to leave Moulin Roty for the next part of their adventure.
Next stop, Krakow in Poland!
It was lucky that they could find a map, because they got thoroughly lost! All the street names and signs were so hard to understand. They did manage to finally find the Bajo toy shop there though, and convinced some more of their friends to come to Australia to play.
Finally, after the most lovely three weeks holiday in Poland and France, Nini and Sylvain packed up their things and got ready for their very long flight home to Australia. There was one more surprise though, and they were excited to see Tokyo in Japan for the first time!
The most beautiful gardens of Yoyogi Park, and some of the sights of Tokyo were this little rabbit and mouse’s last adventure before they finally headed back to Australia for a well earned rest.
