    I enjoy looking up names of Greek Origin! Such as my Brown Lab is “Lupus” which is Greek for dog. My Husky is named Quartz because the actual rock has a greek origin of “Ice”!

    I really don’t know any REAL explorers, but me and my BFF love to explore trails and creeks when we go camping, or even just use our imaginations and let them take us somewhere exotic in our backgarden.

    I cant believe I was only 3 when Webkinz started! I didn’t even know about Webkinz till about 2009 (I know that seems like a long time ago LOL).

  7. treebabe says:

    I have a husky named, you guessed it – Husky, a blue hairy hippo named – Hippi Harry, a treefrog named – Tiana (Even though I don’t like the movie Princess and the frog!), and a wooly sheep named – Noel (I got her at Christmas).

    As to my own pets, I look for the unusual and the appealing. I have a buffalo named Olaf.. get it the last letters of the word buffalo are Olaf…. I ahve a catepillar named Pido which is part of the scientific name of the catepillar, I also have a hummingbird named Pago which is part of the science name of the things they like to eat. I have a mystery pet I won with the card I named silloutte because until you adopted it you never saw anything but the silloutte. I also name d some of my twin pets after old TV and Radio show characters, Gracie and Allen, Laurel and Hardy, and I have a few that are words that go together, like song and dance. My fav are my Diva’s though. they all have sewing material names, lacey, ribbons, chenelle, satin etc.. I like the unusal and the different. So my numberone pet is original. Annabelle.. The Top DIva

    Joque Cousteau is one of my top explorers. All those sea creatures we were privileged to see. I also love the story of Balboa discovering the pacific ocean for the first time. Can you imagine the view he saw of the ocean. or Magellen discovering the route to South America. And of course lewis and Clark mapping the missosuri river form its beginnings. Oh the adventures they must of had
