Last Saturday, I saw a really big flower next to my yellow bench! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n

But it was just Cube, holding a petal parasol. When I spoke with him, he started talking about dragonflies spitting out tiny flames. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n

\"Cube:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

It was just the start of his conversation leading to a request: He wanted me to catch a dragonfly for him. So I started looking around, and I wasn’t seeing any at first (maybe because it was raining). But when I finally did spot one (after the rain stopped), it was a big one! It was a banded dragonfly!<\/p>\n\n\n

I took it back to Cube, and he gave me a nice reward: a computer.<\/p>\n\n\n

I also noticed something else in the sky. A double rainbow was starting to form!<\/p>\n\n\n

As the minutes wore on, it got brighter and brighter!<\/p>\n\n\n

While this isn’t the first double rainbow I’ve seen in Forest (that was in 2016<\/a>), this is just the 2nd one! So I took a bunch of pictures of it, all over town!<\/p>\n\n\n

I think I overdid it with the photos, haha. But it’s a rare sight to see, so why not? \ud83c\udf08<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Monday, Eugene the koala was camping in town. I never liked the guy.<\/p>\n\n\n

At Re-Tail, I saw a cube clock for sale. I bought it, and decided to mail it to Cube (get it?) as a gift. I also wrote him a nice letter, politely asking for his photo. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Mailing
It’s been a long time since I’ve mailed a letter in this game.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Today, I received a response from Cube. He said he liked the letter, but he didn’t send me a gift with his reply. Oh well. I tried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found Gulliver down on the beach, and he was talking about tom yum kung and elephants. The elephants made me think of India (because of Dhalsim’s stage in Street Fighter II, haha), but that wasn’t one of the choices. So I consulted my Gulliver guide<\/a> and saw that Thailand was the correct answer. <\/p>\n\n\n

Gulliver will be sending me a tuk-tuk in the mail next time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you haven’t yet seen my latest video, it’s a comparison of my town in each Animal Crossing game. It contrasts details about each town, my villagers, my museum and collections, and also my accomplishments and goals. I hope you’ll give it a watch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
