Magic Coffee: What's Wrong With This Picture?

22nd January 2012

I snapped a shot of our travel mascot, George Bailey-Penguin, ready for our most recent trip. Next thing I knew, he’d flipped into my coffee.

How did he get there?

This photo set is not staged. Coasters are still bad.

Sarge gave him to me when we first started going out, so I’d have a penguin in the house! That’s his second hat, he lost his first one in NYC!

I think I may have seen his hat last week in the subway!

He jumped. Life looked better down there. He’s a penguin and he had a cold behind which needed warming. What was his excuse?

Everyone needs coffee, its a food group.

I loooooove penguins. I know you already named him, but can I call him Pete?

Radley’s class had a penguin that looked exactly like that. He went home with a different student each week to document their adventures.

I dunno why, but the penguin upended in the coffee mug just completely cracks me up! 🙂
