Holly is seven years old and she is from Nevada, USA. She is my friend's niece and she is doing a project for school involving helping Flat Stanley to see the world. The idea is to take Stanley somewhere, take a photo and also write something about where he went.
For example, I'll take the Flat Stanley's drawing (see picture bellow), just as a friend of mine asked me to do, to a coffee bar in Zagreb. I will place Flat Stanley next to me, order my capuccino and have someone take a picture of the two of us. Cigarettes on the picture are out of question :smoke: I'll do this in Zagreb, can you do it wherever you are? And then post your picture here! There's plenty of time. Holly has a presentation in early May. Do you remeber a dwarf from French movie Amelie? :tnx: |

Wow... cool school project! In "my time" we didn't have that kind of projects, but I guess that was a long time ago :whistle:
I'm not going to promise anything (because I hate to break promises) but I'll try to get something. BTW, wouldn't it be better to take "him" to places that could be easily identified? I mean, and following your example, a bar - unless it's a very well known place from a very specific town - can be difficult to connect to the town in question. I think it could work better if we take "him" to visit some national buildings, statues, bridges, towers, etc... But this is just my suggestion |

Stanley in the Maksimir Park. This public park was established in 1794. Stanley is standing in its central area in front of Vidikovac (panorama building) with a beautiful view on the lakes, the central alley and thick woods surrounding the park. Next to the park is a city ZOO with 281 animal species. People come here to enjoy the nature, jog, walk their pets or take a ride on a bike. In summer children go pony riding.

Stanley at the Flour Square, the most famous square in Zagreb with numerous kavanas (kava means coffee, kavana means a coffee place), flower kiosks in the south, a cinema and a church. Zagreb people love having coffee in kavana with family, friends or colleagues. They also don't mind sitting alone and watching people go by or simply read a newspaper. Kavana is for sure a central socializing place in Zagreb and in Croatia.

Le Fabuleus Destin d'Amélie Poulin's an awesome movie, especially the garden gnome idea in there I'll see if I can get a pic with Stanley from Belgium, and'll ask 'round to see if some people I know that aren't on Abandonia can take a pic with Stanley from where they live, too k:
