"The Frog Prince" from Germany is one of the many tales collected
by The Brothers Grimm; it deals with the importance of keeping your
word and also cautions that appearances can be deceiving. We go
with the original version, which unlike the more popularly known
version, does not involve kissing the frog. We just didn't have the
mouthwash handy.
We begin 2008 from Orlando FL., where we spent most of December. We
did, however, take a brief jaunt to St. Augustine, the oldest city
in America, and home of Castillo de San Marcos, a 300-year-old
fort. (It's not 400 years old, as we mistakenly state in the
podcast, but the city itself is OVER 400 years old.)
Back in Orlando, Zephyr made a couple of pilgrimages to Universal
Orlando, where he made observations and took notes to assist him in
his own theme park planning ambitions. You can hear some of his
feedback about the park on this podcast.
We wish you the happiest of new years all year long and then
some!
Happy Listening!
Dennis (Narrator, King), Kimberly (Princess) and Zephyr (Frog
Prince)
