I finally found something I was looking for!

Since last year, I have been looking for a globe for the kids. I did not just want any globe, I wanted *the* globe. Sears has it but it was so darn expensive, I really did not want to pay that much (169.99$). So, a few weeks ago, thinking that I would never find it at a reasonnable price, I bought another model from Leap Frog. I really did not like it much. I guess it was because I really wanted the other one. I got it out of the box and left it on the shelf. I did not throw away the box, as I usually do. I am not sure why but two weeks later, the box was still cluttering the playroom.

Much to my surprise, when I went to the toy store in town, I found THE one I wanted. It was 76$! Wow! I asked an employee if she could put it in the back for me so I could come back and exchange it with the one I had bought only two weeks earlier. She said yes (I am a really good client, lol). I am so very happy now. That combined with the computer game I got the kids (Lapin Malin, Le Globe Magique) and Maps and Globes and Galopping Around the Globe, I think the kids and I are going to be having a lot of fun. Once the last two finally arrive, I mean.

Oh, here is a picture of our brand new globe:
