Under the Moon – Revisiting Germany

A few years ago, a little fellow named Claus Stoughton borrowed my blog to tell the tale of his neighbors in Dispolok, Germany. It was a great way for you to get to know what goes in in that train town at Epcot’s Germany pavilion. Claus asked if he could post a short update and I told him, by all means. It’s a real shame it’s been such a long time but we’ll take what we can get. I hope you enjoy his news. Oh, and if you missed the original blog entry, follow this link

Hello friends. This is Claus Stoughton. I have a quick update for you on the townspeople of Dispolok. My job and view haven’t changed. I received a small raise last year so I ran out and bought myself a hand carved wooden giraffe at the African Outpost to ward off ducks. Turns out ducks aren’t bother by giraffes. In fact, they used it as a back scratcher. Live and learn. I’m sure you’re excited to learn what’s new so I’ll get started.

Dieter Lange’s fame has dwindled so much from his glory days as a child actor that the media has given up on him completely. Now that they’re gone, he misses them. Last month he auditioned for a reality show filming in England. He’s not sure if he’ll be cast but if so, he’s hoping to re-connect with Jordy, a French man who was a pint-sized pop star for a summer.

Speaking of television stars, the Canadians have invaded and are filming all over the area. Franziska and Oliver bought a house right before they got married but now they are expecting triplets and Franziska thinks they need a larger house. Oliver doesn’t want to move. They’re currently filming an episode of Love It or List It. I already know the outcome, I’ll tell you before I wrap this up.

Mr. Faust has mellowed a little. It’s hard to be crazy 100% of the time when you’re old and nap twice a day. The animals on his farm ignore him but sometimes the younger horse finds him so funny that he falls down laughing. Honestly, when have you ever seen a horse do that? It must be all the caramel we smell.

Passenger trains are still and always will be our chosen industry. We hope you have ridden at least one of our trains, they are quite fast, roomy, and clean. The one thing we can’t control are ticket prices. There’s been some grumbling about a special guest coming to visit in the fall. A fellow named Thomas. I guess he is a distant cousin of Isaak. I don’t know what the big fuss is about. They’re trains.

Thank you for reading my little update. I hope you liked it. Oh, before I go, I promised to tell you what Oliver and Franziska decided.

They’re going to list it and buy this Morocco-inspired home. I hope they have belly dancers at the open house. Auf wiedersehen!
