So here i am again with the Trave book. I already finished sticking everything inside and i love it all~~
I'll try to take pictures, but i can't gurantee them, because i lost my cam at a recent carnival event and my sis has hers at her boyfriends house so yeah...my mobile would be an option but pictures come out pretty blurry with it u_u;



well enough of my whining, i come here to ask for your opinion about the second part of the book. There are still some pages left we can fill and i know new members came or others didn't have the opportunity to take part in the first place.

EUROPEAN TRADITIONS

So my new idea is, to present different traditions from our countries to the boys.
I got this idea because right now it's carnival in Germany and i myself am a person who loves this season. Carnival has a looooong history here and the small town i live in celebrates it big. So for example i'd make a page or so, with pictures of carnival, the parades we make, and write a little about the tradiion. Why we make it (to chase away the winter ^^) an how we celebrate it (there are different days, like the 'womens carnival' when all women can go mad, cut the guy's shoe laces etc 8DDD~)

I figured every country has some fun, weird or interesting traditions and for people living outside it's always nice to know about them.
I don't know....like....in Spain you don't get presents from Santa but on January 6th "Los Reyes Magos"...or in Germany as well there's the "Maynight" in which guys put a tree on the roof of their girlfriend and if she gets it three years in a row it's a proposal....
Such things are in my opinion something people should know about other countries and some have mentioned fests and such in their page about the country already, but let's give them some more highlight ^_^

What do you think? Plus, those participating for the first time will be able to send along a letter to the boys again. Somehow it looks still a bit 'empty'.

I'm up for other ideas as well, or to hear some feedback.

PART ONE IS ON HOLD!
WE'RE ONLY DOING THE RED OCEAN FOR NOW!!


EUROPEAN RED OCEAN

Something else i think might be nice, and i know people have already sent in pictures of them, but i think it#d be really cool to have one, two, three...idk how many pages filled with the pictures of all the Phoenix members. Like...everyone could take a picture with them holding a red balloon and when they look at those pages, they'll see the European Red Ocean =D

so those who couldn't participate can do it in this second part?

Yep exactly ;D But also those who already did something for the first part can participate again. I think if people like this ideas we'll get topics for each country again so they can discuss the things they wanna do. And well, for the pictures i won't make any restrictions (the only one will be being part of the FC) so we'll get a LOT of pictures together ^_^

hmm.. okay i'll think of something.. actually i don't have any idea right now.. i don't really know what i could do.. but i'll think about it ^^ well there are enough german people anyway, aren't there? :D though i'll try to help ^^

*what if i can't give anything? can i still be a part of the red ocean??

so also the countries that couldn't participate in the previous part can participate now, right? But just in this second part?

omg, I'm so sorry if I am confusing you, but I am confused myself...

No problem, simply ask. I'm here to answer your questions <3

Yep even it's a country that wasn't included before can be included now.
And also yes, the European Red Ocean is independant from the other parts. So even if you can't give something for the other part you can still send your picture for the Red Ocean.
Only the Letters are connected to those two things. To send in a letter you HAVE TO participate in either the red ocean OR the Traditions thing.

ah okay ^^ when is the deadline?
well if there's something i could help with, i'm open for anything ^^ just tell me

No deadline until now because there hasn't been much feedback .__.~~

okaay.. so i need red balloons, huh.. just wait for my pic :D

I like the "Red Ocean" idea ^__^

I will take some pics and think about an article as soon as i got vacation.*_* so in a week xD

btw how many pages are left?
