Rabbit XP

London, UK

2009-02-25T15:40:00.000-08:00

London was super cool: tried fish'n'chips, saw Angelina Jolie (i swear I did!), got wet in the rain, and got lost in the Tube. This is me on the Central Line!

South of France

2009-01-25T15:44:00.000-08:00

Beginning of the journey - checking the route on the google map.

And this is where I was staying during the trip! Lovely, is it?Nice is nice!! Best view ever!

Getting in touch with art.

Generally post-NewYear trips are not recommended - unless you wanna know what its like to be in the streets all alone on the 1st of Jan. Marseille was funky, Nice was neat&pretty, Monaco was fancy, the Cannes - didn't really see it was already dark when we got there! But all in all - Cote d'Azur is terrific - sun, beaches. girls and big boats! :))

Berlin, Germany - Xmas08

2009-01-10T15:24:00.000-08:00

Over the Christmas vacation I had the opportunity to travel to Berlin, Germany. Although the bus ride was really long and the temperature there was really cold - it was nice to see the city and explore new places!

It was nice to be with a family during Christmas and see the christmas tree.

Here I am with ton-ton Landry and the naked German woman. Thanks ton-ton :)

Where I am now?

Sao Paulo, Brazil, IC 2008

2008-12-18T15:32:00.000-08:00

I was so busy with partying at IC that i forgot to charge my camera before checking out the city, so all nice places ~ Copacabana, Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro - dont have any picture from there.

However got a shot from Global Plenary - while PAI was giving a speech.

And made appearance at Official Dinner! was great to be back!

Antwerpen, Belgium

2008-12-18T15:11:00.000-08:00

Chilling in Belgium has been quite nice so far. Country is so small - it takes you only an hour from Brussles to enjoy best beer in the world in the town of Antwerp - the place in Belgium with best shopping and best nightlife according to locals. Weekend trips there are the best! All you need are the right people to enjoy it with.

United States

2008-07-01T00:06:00.001-07:00

Finally, I got to travel again. This time I went to the US. I had never been there before and was really curious to visit that country that for the very first time in its history might have an African-American president.

I flew Turkish Airlines to Istanbul from Bishkek and then British Airways to Baltimore Washington International via London Heathrow. The flights were good and I didn't have any troubles with my luggage despite transiting via Heathrow's Terminal 5 which just started to improve its service and luggage handling.

I got to visit Washington DC, New York City and Charleston SC. In Washington I got to see the White House that I hope will be soon occupied by Senator Barack Obama. But before he actually does that, I got to visit the Capitol Hill and express my support for Obama that made history by becoming the first African-American nominee of the Democratic Party. He promised to help rabbits face challenges of the global warming and rising food prices as he clinched his party's nomination. But that is not the only reason I like him. He is just fun and funky. Rabbits in the US should be excited to have Obama as their next president.

New York is always great. It was breathtaking to see the great city from the top of the Empire State Building. At that moment, I was the tallest rabbit on Earth. I was also trying to spot some New York rabbits walking down the 5th Avenue, but no luck.

New York is indeed one of the greatest cities on Earth. It doesn't matter what you are and where you come from because nobody cares.

One of the highlights of the trip was seeing the Atlantic Ocean. I was hoping to make friends with dolphins but I saw none. The Ocean was a bit too salty for me. So I will try to go to Issyk-Kul Lake instead. I would like to thank Kadyr for letting me travel along with him. I met many of his friends in all the places we visited.

Paris, France

2008-04-02T12:43:00.001-07:00

Ah! Paris! Les femmes, le fromage et le vin!

What a trip it was. Those beautiful girls everywhere stroking my ears, that smelly cheese, those amazing wines... I even liked grumpy Parisians who pretend they don't speak a word of English. "I love rien, I'm parisien", as they say!

But France, believe it or not, can also be very dangerous... This "lapin à la moutarde" on the menu still makes me shudder: "Rabbit in mustard sauce"... That can't be food!

Anyway, here I am at the Eiffel tower with a very sweet girl I picked up on the Champ de Mars. And here I am again in Les Halles.

Almaty, Reuters Office

Mr Rabbit has recently visited the Reuters Central Asia office in Kazakhstan. He observed how reporters gather information, take pictures and write interviews, and was very happy with their hard work. On his last day in the office, on Feb 13, Mr Rabbit wished all of them good luck and promised to tell his rabbit friends about his wonderful trip to Almaty.

Japan

2008-02-14T15:00:00.000-08:00

Mr Rabbit is a global trotter. Just a few weeks ago, he travelled to the Far Eastern nation of Japan where he sat down for talks with the Emperor and his likely successor, as well as Mr Prime Minister. Mr Rabbit also paid a surprise visit to Mt Fuji, the main symbol of Japan, and posed there in front of reporters. He said: "I am most delighted to be here. It's a great country. And I liked all that fish. Even though I am a rabbit."

Kazahstan
