So when we were in the outskirts of Melbourne living the slow weekend life of a nice quiet Australian town, we found something totally random. We were just walking around the streets checking out the stores.
Most of the stores on the quiet streets there weren’t the kind of stores you see in KL or any other city to be honest. You don’t see too many chain stores or anything. What you do see are stores that look like they’ve been around forever and passed down from generations to generations.
We went into this toy store where we had some of the oldest toys ever. Like old Pinnochio figurines and all. In the store too, Ming and Pierre managed to find something else that caught their attention.
They found these lads.
They brought it quickly to the restaurant where we were having tea and started playing around with them. When the waiter came to take our order, they didn’t order their food. Big Bird, Elmo and Cookie Monster did it for them.
The waitresses all thought that it was soo cute that some of them started crowding around Ming and Pierre and talking to them. Man talk about a way to pick up chicks man. Just bring a Sesame Street hand puppet along.
While I sat there that afternoon sipping my most delicious cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows,
Pierre and Ming entertained us with Sesame Street sketches starring Elmo, Cookie Monster and Big Bird.
I only wish now I took a video of that 🙂
Bah some of their puppet shows were so inappropriate it probably would’ve been taken off YouTube anyway (or at least flagged).
