Whisked Away to Adventure

Post 2:
The Queen loved parties, games, and especially music. "What will I wear?" she exclaimed. "All I have are these old horrid clothes!"

Perhaps I need a extravagant party hat? In the very tiniest of fine print on her invitation reads: You must visit the "Emporium of Wonders." There is a table set up just for you to assemble a wondrous hat. "Oh, how clever of them!" she said. "I will look divine!" The Queen lovingly packed her artful suitcase filled to the brim with tinsel, paint, glue, carnival images, and crepe paper!

So, as the sun rose over her magical kingdom, she stepped into her carriage to be whisked away to undertake the adventure she so needed. She thought of Samuel, who was lost at sea after that severe thunderstorm. It was so hard to be happy, when she had lost so much!"

I hope that she finds her son.

I'm so glad the Queen is going to the party, a little fun and magic might help to ease the sorrow.

How wonderful the Queen loves parties, games and music. The carnival will be such a fun event to help take her mind off Samuel. I do think she will enjoy herself.

Samuel bears a striking resemblance to Oscar Wilde! Love your story. A little partying doesn't hurt anyone.

I don't know what got into me the weekend of the "Carnival Soiree." I am usually not much of a story-teller. Thanks for all your sweet comments. It helped my spirits participating in such a fun event. Who knows, maybe there's a little bit of fairy tale stories to be told in my future! LOL ~Nan
