Intrepidly Invading Iberia

Much like Hannibal, but with fewer elephants, the BITWRATHPLOOB has invaded the Iberian Peninsula. Here, I present some unboxing photos, and hopefully over the coming week or two, he (it?) will get to see a little bit of Northern Spain before departing for his next destination.

The package

Someone was clever enough to surround it in a black plastic band to insure that the BITWRATHPLOOB remained inside.

Opening the box...

Some enterprising young man with excellent crayon penmanship, presumably Adam, had used the inside of the brown wrapping paper to practice his alphabet.

The horror unfolds...

Where have I seen a shiny red spherical nose like that before?

He's escaped!!

He escaped!! Everybody run!!!

Enjoying a bit of fresh air and sunshine

Enjoying a bit of fresh air and Spanish sunshine. It was getting kind of stuffy in the box.

Visiting with Mr. Cactus

Mr. Cactus, of Cactus Cam fame, had a beautiful flower ready for Mr. BITWRATHPLOOB upon his arrival.

Pretty flower!

One of the items in this photo is a beautiful manifestation of Nature’s beauty.

Pollen Snorting

Gotta take time during your World Tour to stop and smell the roses cactus flowers.

Later in the day, Marga walks over to him (it?) and says, “This little thing’s not so bad. He’s actually kind of cute!” 1.934 seconds later, I hear a gasp, a scream, and a wooden thump, and the BITWRATHPLOOB’s head is rolling across the floor. “Oh yeah, his head comes off,” I said. She hasn’t gone near it since.
