Wrapping Up: The Hippo Collage

Of course, I took the hippo along with me again. . . and this whole series will seem a lot less pathetic if you think of the hippo as one of those gnomes people take and send around the world so they can take photos of it in foreign locales, as opposed to thinking of it as a grown woman's need to bring a stuffed animal with her along on vacation.

Besides, Neerad was MADE in China. It would have been mean not to bring him along on a trip to his home.
