As I made my daily walk around town, I watched a dung beetle push a snowball into the river. I tried to take a picture, but it didn’t turn out good, so I didn’t save it.

I saw Rowan and he asked me to deliver a present to Bob; it was a one-ball shirt.

I returned to Rowan and told him I made the delivery. He thanked me by giving me an anatomical model. He told me not to worry, because he gave it a good wipe-down. Uhhh… 😛

Later on, it was UFO time. This is my first UFO sighting in February after having four sightings in January. It first flew by from left to right and I didn’t have a good angle on it and missed it. The return flight (from right to left) was a little better, but I almost missed it again. I just barely clipped it as it went over the river.

I crossed the river and found the spaceship part. This is my 15th time…will this be the time I finally get a Metroid? I’ll find out tomorrow.

Ruby the rabbit moved out today. This was her goodbye letter:

Pascal was in town today. I didn’t have a scallop to give him, but I talked to him anyway, just to see him dive into the river. I think he’s practicing for the London Olympics.

Today is Festivale!

At 8:00, I opened my gate and Yann came in. About 20 minutes later, Olivia also joined in.

If you don’t know how Festivale works, I’ll explain the basics. That peacock in the picture above is Pavé. He will ask for a certain color of candy: It can be red, green, blue, or yellow. You then have to find the outdoor animals in your town and play games with them.

Tonight, my outdoor animals were Mint, Yuka, Del, Egbert, and Poppy. The games are games of luck, such as rock, paper, scissors.

Another game has you playing soccer (verbally) by choosing left or right in an attempt to block a shot on goal.

If you win a game, you earn a piece of candy. Sometimes you can choose which color you want, but usually you don’t have a choice. If you lose, the animal will take a piece of candy (or 500 bells if you don’t have candy).

When you have three pieces of the color that Pavé wants, you take them to him and he will exchange them for a piece of Pavé furniture. He will then ask for a different color candy and the process repeats. To be honest, Festivale is quite annoying and it’s my least favorite of the five main holidays in City Folk.

While we were playing, we also noticed the Northern Lights in Forest. (They were dim in this picture, but got brighter later on).

I stayed on until about 9:35 and then closed my gate and ended my game. In all, I earned 63,500 bells from Festivale. Here are the rest of the pictures I took tonight.
