The Adventures of Stripe the Well-Travelled Bug.

Hi! My name is Stripe. You can see why.

I live in England. Well, most of the time, anyway. I travel a lot; I've had many adventures and have visited far and exotic places. And I haven't stopped! I go on trips all the time. It's a really big world out there, and I'm only a small bug!

I have lots of photos from my adventures. Would you like to see them?

• I arrive at my home
• Travels in Scotland
• Safari in the back garden
• Trip to Cambridge
• I meet a cat
• Christmas in England
• Holiday in Florida (and I meet Eric!)
• Germany adventure
• Visit to the Peaks
• Just hanging around
• Or, if you're feeling especially adventurous yourself, you can see them ALL (big download)!

Visit to the Peaks
	Tower (87 KB). We found this tower. It's on top of a big hill. We could see for miles! Can you see me? I'm in one of the windows.
	Uncle Mike (84 KB). Meet Uncle Mike!
	Stone wall (62 KB). England is full of stone walls. I'm sitting on one now.
	Stile (94 KB). Oh, what a beautiful day! The sun is going down now and everything is turning golden. We've been out exploring. Do you see this big stone wall? How do you suppose you get to the other side of it? Well, they've cleverly built these steps right into it! Even a little bug can get to the other side.
	In the maze (94 KB). We went to a huge house called Chatsworth. It had a maze! But the maze is made out of bushes, if you can imagine it! The bushes are so tall, even Uncle Mike can't quite see over them. So, when we got good and lost in the maze, they lifted me up to the top of the hedge. Sitting up there, on top, I can see the way out! Hey, go left, guys!
	The Cascade (112 KB). At Chatsworth they also have the most amazing fountains. There's one that is like stairs, going hundreds of feet down an enormous hillside. The water runs down the whole thing! It's only a quarter-inch deep or so. The splashing sound was irresistible! My eyes were as big as dinner-plates! Everywhere there were children playing in it--running across it and splashing happily. I wanted to play too!
