Tiny Hippo Mails Letter in London
I must keep in touch with my friends at home while I am staying in the United Kingdom!
Let the letter writing begin.
Make sure the envelope is well licked.
Apply all the proper postage.

Into the Queen’s Royal Mail.
Arriving at the Flat in Earl’s Court
I had quite an adventure getting into our flat in Earl’s Court.
Finding the proper flat was a bit of a trick.
Then I had to open the heavy gate.
Next I had to navigate my way down the stone stairs.
Once I had made it down the stairs it was time to focus on the front door.
I had the house keys, it seemed simple enough.
But how would I turn the key once I got up there? Oh bother, keys were just not made for hippos, perhaps mail slots were.
Home at last.
