@ Community Center Demure and Captain Manwaring now know where to find Fantastic Buildings, as they have been given a free map! Before unfolding it, they read the cover: Idyll The pets will gather on the picnic benches outside the community centre before commencing their country ramble. Let's hope those lunch bags remain intact for a few more hours! The tour encompasses country buildings from watermills and windmills to barns, some unusual stone buildings, including a lovely hobbit-type dwelling, and there are some scenes of chocolate-box prettiness. Those pets who have the energy left might like to swim out to the island in the centre of the lake or climb up to a fun tree-house! Others may prefer to explore a formal house and gardens or just relax by the beach! Community Center Attention all pets! Will each group of travelers please gather together at the picnic tables? The horse-drawn carriages will be arriving soon to take you on your tour of Idyll.

Dwarf Cottage The cottage of the six dwarves that you have never heard of; Jumpy, Zippy, Floppy, Cranky, Fuzzy, and Bert. One day on their way home from work, they bought some beans from a kid named Jack. They planted them in the yard and the stalk grew into a gigantic tree, engulfing their cottage. At first, they wondered how to get rid of it but now it's "grown on them" because they are making lots of money from tourists wanting to climb it.
