@ Sled Dog in Training
CoCoKo and Emmaline have been given a free map to help them enjoy their Winter Tour! Before unfolding it, they read the cover:
Winter Wildlife
A cute little fellow greets the pets this morning to herald the arrival of the morning's transport. The pets will pass wintry landscapes and greet all kinds of wildlife. They have the opportunity to explore bridges, a forest, a river and a snowbound wooden cabin before heading home in the sunset to that night's lodging. While passing the lumber store, they meet two more appealing little creatures keeping out of the cold. The pets then go inside for welcome bowls of soup and wind up their day by creating hot drinks with special chosen garnishes.
Sled Dog in Training
This pup may be young but he will learn much just by running alongside the team and hearing the musher call out the directions. Some day he may even be the lead dog.

@ Straight Ahead, Team!
Violet Damson and CoCoKo were musing on the concept of hygge.
“Is the reason there's no word for this in English because England is a cold, damp little island with an awful train service?"
CoCoKo considered this. "Well, they could still go indoors out of the rain and curl up in an armchair with a good book and stuff."

Straight Ahead, Team!
Eagerly jumping in their harnesses, the sled dog team lunges forward at the sound of the driver's command to "Hike!" The sled glides along the snowy path effortlessly thanks to the well-trained team. What seems like work to us is actually a great source of joy for a sled dog. Every time a musher decides to go out, every dog in the kennel is excitedly barking and jumping, hoping they get chosen to be on the team.

@ Snowy Bench
“Pass me the binoculars, CoCoKo!” said Rosa. "I think that's a Canada goose just taking off over there!"

Snowy Bench
Hikers welcome a sight such as this during a long, snowy trek. Chances to sit for a bit to rest are far and few between on the trails. Benches in places like this are usually erected in memory of a loved one who enjoyed the outdoors or as an eagle scout project.

Episode 4/27

@ Fox on the Prowl
“Seeing these places makes me want to stay here and spend a week or two, CoCoKo,” remarked Lilly. "It looks so different!"

Fox on the Prowl

@ Through the Frozen Wetlands
CoCoKo and Mystery shook paws, then looked around in awe, wishing they hadn’t already eaten their lunch! This was the most perfect place to spread the waterproof blanket for a picnic!

Through the Frozen Wetlands
The carefully constructed boardwalk allows hikers to safely traverse the wetlands while protecting its inhabitants. While they are hibernating at the moment, at the first sign of spring, the environs come alive with the chorus of spring peepers and other critters who call this land home.

Episode 6/27

@ Squirrel in the Snow
Tesla was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as CoCoKo unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which she succeeded in knocking Tesla’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” urged Tesla. “We’re about to pose beside this amazing scene—the picture will be entirely of your map if you don’t fold it up PDQ!”
Squirrel in the Snow
I know I hid that corn cob somewhere around here but a recent snowfall has covered it up. Now I will have to check every lumpy spot in the snow to find it. Boy, will I be glad when I do! I'm hungry!

Episode 7/27

@ Snowy Cabin in the Forest
"This is fabulous, Mini" enthused CoCoKo. "I'll have this photo printed and framed and display it next to my plush seal that I got in the little gift shop near Snow Beach and the model of St Basil's Cathedral from Icon!"
"You'll have a fine collection of mementos, CoCoKo!" said Mini.

Snowy Cabin in the Forest
The freshly plowed path beckons you to the cozy cabin tucked into the dense evergreen forest. Oh, I can already feel the warmth of the wood-burning stove and can't wait to kick off my boots and relax under a warm quilt with a cup of hot cocoa.

Frosty-Nosed Welcome
Welcome to my neck of the woods! I know you'll love it here as much as I do. You don't happen to have a carrot in your backpack, do you? I could use a little snack as I've been sniffing around trying to find something to munch on under the snow.

Episode 9/27

@ Snow-Covered Fence
“I could stay here forever, CoCoKo,” said Hoover. “This is an amazing place!”
“Well, you never know what lies ahead, Hoover. I wouldn't be surprised if the next stop is even better!” said CoCoKo.
Snow-Covered Fence
The snow-covered fence marks the border of this sparse remote land. With one lone tree off in the distance and no hoof or paw prints in the freshly fallen snow, there doesn't appear to be much activity here. Perfect, just the way I like it!

Episode 10/27

@ European Crested Tit
“It would be great fun to camp in the snow overnight, wouldn't it, Lami?” said CoCoKo."In the morning you'd fill your kettle with snow and boil it suspended from a tripod of sticks, like they do in books."
Lami shivered. “You must be fond of adventure books, CoCoKo! I'd rather have four solid walls round me at night, actually!"
European Crested Tit
A common songbird found throughout the deciduous and coniferous forests in Central and Northern Europe, the crested tit does not migrate. It is very vocal with its nearly constant song of zee, zee, zee.

"How many needles grow on a pine tree, Zen?" said CoCoKo.
"Goodness, I don't know, CoCoKo. How many?"
"All of them!"

@ Winter Guardian
“Ooh, it's just starting to get a bit cold, CoCoKo!” said Mrs Wabbit. “Can you hold my gloves and map while I dig out my scarf?"
CoCoKo good-naturedly took charge of Mrs Wabbit's possessions while she emptied her rucksack of a pack of sandwiches, a Thermos flask, a pair of galoshes, a bag of toffees, a paperback novel, a bottle of mineral water, an address book, some postage stamps, an assortment of different coloured biros, a bottle opener, a couple of old train tickets, a handful of golden and silver moles, a door key, some shopping receipts, a screwdriver, a bottle of multivitamins, a lottery ticket and a selection of rather battered sachets of salt, sugar and tomato ketchup before locating the scarf right at the bottom. This she donned and then CoCoKo helped her put everything back in her rucksack.

CoCoKo is tired out and ready to go home when Midnight comes along. "Wow! You find a special prize!" says Midnight. CoCoKo turns round and found it was just behind them!
