Making Money in Bribs

Today I headed over to Merka’s town Bribs to sell some turnips. Kita was also there.

Hanging out with Merka and Kita in Bribs.Merka’s Re-Tail was paying a whopping 514 bells for turnips! I sold my 3,500 turnips for a cool 1.8 million bells.

Reese: Currently, I'm buying each turnip for 514 bells.I also had a little chat with my old buddy Drago.

Drago: Yaaawn... Is that you, Jeff? All right! I'm so happy you came to visit!While Kita went up to Main Street for a haircut, Merka started throwing beans at me!

Leif: The price is umm... Ah yes! Right! It's 1,600 bells!I put my money into my bank account, and my balance soared past the 45 million mark. I’m not far from 46 million now!

Your current balance is 45,820,000 bells.Tom wanted to catalog the headkerchief too, so I opened up my gate for him. Merka also dropped by for a visit.

Tortimer: Wow! You must really hate balloons! Please accept this Gold Tortimer award and 6 medals!When we first got to the island, I said “no hammer tours.” The hammer tours seem rough on the circle pad (and my thumb), and since my replacement circle pad is twice glued on, I didn’t want to risk breaking it off again. But Tom apparently didn’t see that I asked for no hammer tours, and he chose it anyway. I told him I would sit it out, but maybe he didn’t believe me. So once it started, I just stood there. 😛 Eventually Merka joined me and we started hammering each other.

We also went on a dangerous fishing tour, where we had to catch things like sharks and piranhas. We returned to the mainland and I ended the session.

Later on, I headed up to the Dream Suite to try to update my dream town. Unfortunately, it wasn’t working. But Luna told me that Storm from Stardust was my most recent dream visitor.

Outside, I was walking around with my net out, catching some fireflies. And I met up with my first tarantula of the year. Sadly, I lost this battle.
