Manic Monday - bud

Mo's word for today is BUD.

For this post I could have done Budweiser of course but I'm not a beer drinker so I wasn't too enthusiastic about the beer company.

But then I came across BUD's Travels.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First let's meet BUD:


BUD is a mannequin. He has been traveling around the world with his friends since 1983. He's been all over North America, as well as Europe and Southern Africa. Perhaps you've encountered him during his travels. You'd remember him, he always stands out in a crowd dressed in his trademark dapper blue suit and red tie (he also stands out because he can't sit down).

These are BUD's possessions:

Here's BUD at Ayers Rock called Uluru in Australia:

Uluru is a large sandstone rock formation in the southern part of the Northern Territory, central Australia. It lies 335 km (208 mi) south west of the nearest large town, Alice Springs.

Bud says: It is a very long way from the coast to Uluru. Don't try to walk it like I did.


Here's BUD at Mendenhall Glacier in Alaska:

Mendenhall Glacier is a glacier about 12 miles (19 km) long located in Mendenhall Valley, about 12 miles (19 km) from downtown Juneau in the southeast area of the U.S. state of Alaska.

BUD says: Don't forget to arrange for a plane to get you out of here or else bring a really warm coat and gloves. I forgot mine.


Here's BUD in Fiji:

The market in Nadi is very busy. Lots of people bring fruits and vegetables and meat to sell there. Bud thought the watermelon looked very tasty.

BUD says: I wanted you to see this picture because it's a close-up and I wanted you to see that I'm really in these places and not pulling your leg.
