Agent S’s Birthday

My eyes were playing tricks on me today. For a second, I thought I saw a very large fish shadow coming out of the river! But it was just Kabuki’s umbrella.

Kabuki's umbrella, which I thought was a large fish.Rolf was not a fan of the never-ending rain. As much as I enjoy the break from watering flowers, I’m getting a bit sick of it myself. It also keeps Phineas away.

Rolf: Ahh, I wish this rain would end soon.Today was the birthday of my favorite squirrel, Agent S! I made sure to visit her and give her a birthday present–a customized classic desk. She seemed to really like it! Although the “HA HA HA” sounded a bit sarcastic…

Agent S: HA! HA! HA! I can't believe you got me a classic desk! This is a totally awesome gift!Dizzy was also there, helping her celebrate. I’m sure the free cake had nothing to do with it…

Dizzy: Seeing Agent S so happy makes me happy too. Birthdays are like gifts that everyone can enjoy!I didn’t stay at the party long, because there’s really not much to do anyway. But Agent S thanked me for making it a special day…and then she also thanked herself.

Agent S: This party was a resounding success, and it's all thanks to you. And to me, of course.For the past two weeks or so, the post office has been giving a 004-3003 error code when I tried to check for a new DLC item. That error message has now been replaced with a new message saying this access point isn’t giving out any presents at the moment. Does this mean the end of regular DLC items? I think the Nintendo Zone downloads will continue, but I’m seriously wondering if that’s all we’re going to get from now on.

Pelly: It seems the access point you're connected to isn't giving out any presents as the moment.Nintendo released DLC items for ACCF for four years, so it would be quite disappointing if New Leaf stopped getting new items after just two years. But we’ll see…maybe Nintendo has something up their sleeves.

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Edric from Skywood was my most recent dream visitor. Yesterday’s visitor was Aaron from iCarly.

I took a boat ride out to the island, where I went on a pros-only bug hunt (12 medals) and a shark-battle tour (15 medals).

Tortimer: WHOA! You're a master angler! You've earned a Gold Tortimer award and 15 medals!I finished up my night with a little fishing, bug-catching, and diving.

Daisy’s Pic

Daisy asked me for some fruit today, and I gave her a perfect orange. She loved it! In fact, she liked it so much that she rewarded me with her picture!

Daisy: Take my Daisy's pic as a token of my appreciation!She’s only lived in Forest for two and a half months, which might make her the quickest villager to give me a picture (excluding April Fool’s Day pictures, of course). I took the picture home and put it in my emerald modern room.

Merka came over to participate too, but we only earned silver the two times we tried it. It seems harder with multiple people for some reason. Still, 14 medals plus 5 bonus medals isn’t bad.

Tortimer: Wow! That's quite a catch! You've earned a Silver Tortimer award and 14 medals!After that, we returned to shore and I ended the session. Sometimes the days that I have good tours happen to be the days I’m not in the mood for playing lots of them. Oh well. I’m going to get that gold medalist badge one of these days…

Luna told me that my most recent dream visitor was Coraline from Cornwall. Thanks for visiting!

A Joyous Dream

Late last night, Merka invited me over to her town for a few island tours. Her island had the tuna kahuna tour, which can earn you 20 medals per game. We went on it a few times to rack up some medals.

Me and Merka celebrating some island tour success.Today, it was raining yet again. Molly asked me to trade my emerald for her No. 67 shirt. No way! But it was cute how Molly was sharing her umbrella with Aurora…oh wait…oh no, Molly’s umbrella is slicing through Aurora’s head! That’s not nice at all!

Aurora: So would you consider trading your emerald for my No. 67 shirt?Meanwhile, all the rain was making Daisy’s feet all soaked and wrinkly. Aww, poor doggie. Daisy is so cute.

Daisy: All the walking I've been doing today has my feet all soaked and wrinkly, it's ruff!Saharah was in town, and I paid her 3,000 bells for some new wallpaper and carpet. She put in a western vista and an ancient tile. I like both of these a lot, but I already had an ancient tile in storage.

You can click that link for lots of pictures and details, but I’m going to show some additional, bonus pictures here as well. The town of JOY has different themed areas, including a Christmas-themed north pole area.

Noel: Santa Claus is coming.Another area is based on Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.

Snow: Where is my Prince Charming?It’s really a beautiful town.

A bell PWP, flowers, and other scenery in the dream town of Joy.But there was one thing I didn’t like: All of the animals kept calling me their queen!

Purrl: How odd! I don't even remember you knocking, My Queen.Each themed area of town had at least one face-cutout standee to poke your head through. The Halloween area had a ghost one, as well as this witch.

Back in Forest tonight, Tom asked me to make a delivery to Kabuki. I took the item over, and Kabuki told me it was actually a present for me–a nebula tee.

Kabuki: Heh! A nebula tee!I put the shirt on and headed back up to the dream suite. I updated my town, and Luna told me that Clayton from Lebanon was my most recent dream visitor.

I finished my night out at the island. Merka recently told me that the elite scavenger hunt was the most efficient tour when it comes to earning the most medals in the shortest amount of time. I went on the tour five or six times, averaging just over three minutes each. That earned me 16 medals each time (except for once when I only got silver).

Tortimer: Your performance has earned you a Gold Tortimer award and 16 medals!
