Episode 1/27

@ Dapple Grey for Sleigh
Valley Girl and Dustin have been given a free map to help them enjoy their Winter Tour! Before unfolding it, they read the cover:
Boats & Bergs
On the only island part of the tour, the pets are picked up at the landing stage by a horse-drawn sleigh and are driven through snowy pines to board their awaiting boat which will take them on the main part of the day's adventure. They will see mountains, icebergs, fun little sandy or rocky coves, swathes of trees lining the coast, snowy island villages and will be enthralled towards the end by the tale of the spooky Troll Lake ... those of a nervous disposition will find exploring the night's accommodation will lift their spirits however! It is a beautiful house with a log fire to warm their paws by while they wind down for the night with mugs of hot chocolate.
Dapple Grey for Sleigh
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling Ring-ting-tingling too Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling, "Yoo hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you

@ Sunrise Wood
“A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Valley Girl?” Rustie said.
“It certainly would, Rustie!" said Valley Girl.
Sunrise Wood
Picture the quiet of this wood as you travel through it, the sleigh following previous tracks, the only sounds in the stillness being the muffled clop of the horses' hooves, the jingle of the harness and the swish of the runners through the snow.

Episode 3/27

@ Ornate Ice Shards
"Remember when Foxy leant too far over the bridge in Meadowlands that time, and fell in the pond with a huge splash, Diana?" asked Valley Girl. "My stomach muscles ached for days, I laughed so much!"
Ornate Ice Shards
The sheer perfection of these shards of ice under magnification show the beauty of Mother Nature's design! Each shard stands like an ornate little spear or pinnacle, yet is made of nothing but frozen water!

Episode 4/27

@ Snow Scene Sunrise
“Wouldn't it be lovely to live in a lighthouse? So romantic!" mused Valley Girl, lying back on a boat deckchair in the indoor lounge.
"Well, I don't know," said Andrew. "It's not all about drinking coffee and gazing at the sea. You have run up and down stairs, operate the light and the foghorn, and there may be no running water or electricity apart from a generator."
Andrew considered this. "Mine would be a luxurious, converted, non-operational lighthouse, then."
Snow Scene Sunrise
The start of a new winter day, with the sun rising and reflecting off the snow crystals which clad the ground, making them glitter in the early morning. Later on, perhaps the snow on the benches will have melted and be occupied by pets taking a rest from their winter snow activities.

Episode 5/27

@ Lonesome Road
Valley Girl opened her rucksack to find her hat. Eevee could see Valley Girl had a beret, a balaclava, a cricket cap, a Tam o' Shanter, a woolly bobble hat, a beanie, a deerstalker hat and a Peruvian chullo!
“Did you bring a Stetson too?” Eevee asked Valley Girl.
Lonesome Road
This road stretches for mile after endless mile but with that breath-taking mountain view to admire, the time will fly past!

Episode 6/27

@ Snowboat
“It would be great fun to camp in the snow overnight, wouldn't it, Teeka?” said Valley Girl."In the morning you'd fill your kettle with snow and boil it suspended from a tripod of sticks, like they do in books."
Teeka shivered. “What books, Valley Girl? Those written by Baden-Powell? I think I'd rather have my creature comforts indoors, thank you."
Snowboat
This sturdy bateau will take the icy waters in her stride and all a pet has to do is find the best vantage point for admiring the scenes all around! Oh, and keep out of the captain's way, of course!

Episode 7/27

@ Grey Peaks
“So what do you reckon, Valley Girl, one of these red houses or one of these brown houses?” asked Sephira.
"Oh, you can't beat a solid little grey stone house, Sephira!"
Grey Peaks
Looming up ahead out of the water are the stern, forbidding, desolate peaks shrouded in mist that clearly show the harsh landscape in wintertime.

Episode 8/27

@ No Battenberg
“Let’s pose with one of us each side of this attraction and I’ll set the self-timer to take a shot,” said Valley Girl to Mekmek. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!”
No Battenberg
If nine-tenths of an iceberg is below the surface, just think what the overall size of these must be!

Episode 9/27

@ Marram View
“Let’s pose with one of us each side of this attraction and I’ll set the self-timer to take a shot,” said Valley Girl to Prince. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!”
Marram View
As the sun sets and casts its lingering rays on the sea, there can be no better place for entering a meditative state than beside Marram View, whatever the season.

Episode 10/27

@ Still Silent Hills
"It's turned a bit cold, Valley Girl, I'm going to put my beanie hat on," said Spirit.
"Good scheme! I'll dig my scarf out as well," said Valley Girl.
Still Silent Hills
The autumnal hues of trees on these crags turn slowly to winter foliage and the snowy peaks above them brood down over them in the absolute stillness of water.

Episode 11/27

@ Idylllic Waterway Retreat
Pearl was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Valley Girl unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which she succeeded in knocking Pearl’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” snapped Pearl. “We’re about to pose beside this amazing scene—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up PDQ!”
Idylllic Waterway Retreat
What a blissfully idyllic place this would be to live! Imagine steering your boat from place to place and berthing at a landing stage rather than a driveway! With its backdrop of white-topped mountains, a foreground of peaceful waterway, and distinctive houses plus a church with a high steeple, this is certainly a lovely place.

Episode 12/27

@ Creagan Cove
Valley Girl opened her rucksack to find her hat. Pasture could see Valley Girl had a beret, a balaclava, a cricket cap, a Tam o' Shanter, a woolly bobble hat, a beanie, a deerstalker hat and a Peruvian chullo!
“Did you bring a Stetson too?” Pasture asked Valley Girl.
Creagan Cove
'Ware rocks, ahoy! This cove, fringed with prominent boulders, is perfect for dipping your paws, wings or flippers into when the tide is out. When the tide is full, Rocky Cove offers up brilliant snorkelling opportunities, if the sea is calm enough.

Episode 13/27

@ Water Splash
"Do you think we'll see penguins like we did on Snow Beach that time, Enty?" asked Valley Girl.
"Oh gosh, Valley Girl, do you remember those sharks, and the octopus as well? Poor Fresco took one look and hid in the bottom of the boat!" responded Enty.
Water Splash
What does this conjure up in your imagination? Playing in the sea on a sunny day? Skiing fast downhill and throwing up a fine spray of slush? Lazing on the lawn on a baking hot day with the water sprinkler going?

Episode 14/27

@ Tinde Tjernet Lake
“If there's time at the end when we get back to our accommodation, I might do some initial sketches for a watercolour painting," billy said, offering Valley Girl a toffee from the bag and then unwrapping one for himself.
“That sounds like a good plan, billy!" said Valley Girl.

Tinde Tjernet Lake
Brrrr! A lot of pets would baulk at taking a dip in this lake, with patches of ice floating on top! But wrap up warm, and it's the perfect spot for tarrying a while, as the ripples from the birds' feeding activities spread outwards and the light starting to fade a little from the sky.

Episode 15/27

@ Sleek Ship
“You know what Ratty said in Wind in the Willows, Valley Girl?” said Tiffany.
"No, what was that?"
"He said, 'there is nothing—absolutely nothing—half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats'," said Tiffany. "He's right!"
Sleek Ship
There's plenty of space on deck in the open air for those pets willing to brave the chill wind! Otherwise there are plenty of seats in the covered lounge area below. But make sure you emerge in time to wave to the welcoming party on terra firma!

Episode 16/27

@ Clear Lake Serenity
BUZZ dived into his rucksack and scrabbled about in it, searching. “There's no mention in Jingle Bells how jolly cold an open sleigh is, Valley Girl!” he said. “I haven't warmed up since—I'm going to put some extra layers on!”
BUZZ emerged clutching a scarf and a woolly hat.
"But just breathe in that crisp air!" said Valley Girl. “You can feel it doing you good.”

Clear Lake Serenity
The snow-clad mountains are perfectly mirrored in the still, calm grey waters of the lake. This wintry lake has the clear transparency of quartz and is a place to meditate.

Episode 17/27

@ Troll Tjernet
“A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Valley Girl?” Ciaré said.
“It certainly would, Ciaré!" said Valley Girl.
Troll Tjernet
We note the Norwegian influence on this spooky body of water—Troll Lake! Who knows what legends have been passed down over the centuries ... watch out if you dip your paws or flippers in there, especially after sunset and the lake is shrouded with mist!

Episode 18/27

@ Sunset Ski Ride
"Remember when Foxy leant too far over the bridge in Meadowlands that time, and fell in the pond with a huge splash, Barnaby?" asked Valley Girl. "My stomach muscles ached for days, I laughed so much!"
Sunset Ski Ride
Picture the thrill of skiing down this snowy slope with these majestic peaks towering high above!

Episode 19/27

@ Snowy Alpine Village Scene
"This is fabulous, MooBerry," enthused Valley Girl. "I'll have this photo printed and framed and display it next to my ceramic puffin that I got in the little gift shop near Snow Beach and the model lighthouse from Transcia!"
"You'll have a fine collection of mementos, Valley Girl!" said MooBerry.
Snowy Alpine Village Scene
A scene of chocolate box prettiness! Night-time in an Alpine village, under a clear starry night with snow thickly coating the roofs of chalets and pine trees with snowy peaks in the distance. It's time to hunker down by the wood burning stove with hot drinks and raclette.

Episode 20/27

@ Wistful Bear
"It's turned a bit cold, Valley Girl, I'm going to put my beanie hat on," said Ziggy.
"Good scheme! I'll dig my scarf out as well," said Valley Girl.
Wistful Bear
Awww! Can you resist this this cute little bear sitting waiting for you to pick him up?

Episode 21/27

@ Grace and Space
“Let’s pose with one of us each side of this attraction and I’ll set the self-timer to take a shot,” said Valley Girl to rex. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!”
Grace and Space
Everypet will love curling up on the fluffy rug in front of the fire in this sophisticated setting. What is in that tempting present underneath the tree? Let's hope it's clearly labelled!

Episode 22/27

@ Knit and Natter
“A picture of this would look lovely printed on Christmas cards, wouldn't it, Valley Girl?” Blue Fire said.
“It certainly would, Blue Fire!" said Valley Girl.
Knit and Natter
There can be no more cosy occupation than sitting by the fire with just the click of knitting needles and the resettling of the logs as they burn as an accompaniment. Which lucky pets will end up snug and cosy in this knitwear?

Episode 23/27

@ White Shutter Room
“I’ve written a postcard to Mrs Eucalyptus about this amazing Huskies, Hijinks and Hygge experience!” said Valley Girl. “She’ll wish she were here! Where’s the nearest postbox?”
Fino shielded his eyes and rotated 360°, elaborately scanning the horizon. “I don’t know how it comes about, but they appear not to have thought to provide a postbox here, Valley Girl. How remiss of them!” Seeing Valley Girl’s ears beginning to droop, Fino added, “Don’t worry, you can post your card after this leg of the Experience!”
White Shutter Room
If you like your television to be HEE-U-U-GE and your fire to be IMMENSE then to shutter off the windows to help keep out the cold, this is the room for you!

Episode 24/27

@ Gracious Living
“You know what Ratty said in Wind in the Willows, Valley Girl?” said Winter.
"No, what was that?"
"He said, 'there is nothing—absolutely nothing—half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats'," said Winter. "He's right!"
Gracious Living
An calm, elegant living room with orderly design that enjoys a relaxing view over the garden outside. Plenty of light is admitted by the large window panes but as dusk falls, the lamps provide extra cosiness.

Episode 25/27

@ Vivid Log Fire
"It's turned a bit cold, Valley Girl, I'm going to put my beanie hat on," said Choose a name.
"Good scheme! I'll dig my scarf out as well," said Valley Girl.
Vivid Log Fire
Whether indoors or outdoors, a log fire is a familiar scene of warmth and conviviality, as pets gather round to warm their paws or flippers, to toast chestnuts or marshmallows and to swap stories of their busy lives.

Episode 26/27

@ Enticing Mug of Hot Chocolate
Valley Girl is tired out and ready to go home when Asparagus comes along. "Wow! You find a special prize!" says Asparagus. Valley Girl turns round and found it was just behind them!
Frosty Mauve Flower
These languid petals of mauve with stamens like little clusters of fairy lights are an elegant adornment.
Enticing Mug of Hot Chocolate
Mmmm! Just the thing to sip before retiring for the night, a mug of milky hot chocolate. To help wind down, it helps to read a chapter of a good book (but nothing too exciting!).

Episode 27/27

@ Boats & Bergs
Valley Girl has enjoyed her winter tour and is now ready to go to her own snug, warm home. choco feels just the same!!
Boats & Bergs
