These cheeky stowaways have managed to sneak into yet another adventure, this time dodging a train strike in Holland and hopping aboard a long distance FlixBus all the way to Germany! \ud83d\ude8d\ud83d\udca8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First stop: <strong>Cologne<\/strong> (or <em>K\u00f6ln<\/em>, if you&#8217;re speaking German!). Did you know this amazing city was started by the Romans? It\u2019s super old and full of incredible buildings, including a cathedral so big it makes Inky the Mouse\u2019s whiskers twitch with excitement! Cologne is also famous for its sweet smelling perfume called, yes, you guessed it\u2014<em>Cologne<\/em>! What a sniff-tastic stop! \ud83d\udc43\ud83d\udc90<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a good night&#8217;s rest (well, maybe just a quick nap, these stowaways are always on the go!), Inky the Mouse was up early checking out the breakfast buffet. What\u2019s on the menu in Germany? Juicy sausages and crispy pretzels, of course! Lion preferred the pretzel\u2026 less messy in the mane. \ud83e\udd68\ud83e\udd81<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, it was all aboard the train again, this time zooming to <strong>Frankfurt<\/strong>. Reverend Breakey tells us there were even more sausages along the way. Frankfurt is known for its shiny skyscrapers and delicious apple juice called &#8220;Apfelwein&#8221; (though don\u2019t worry, Inky and Lion just stuck to water and biscuits!). \ud83c\udf4e\ud83d\ude86<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But before you could say \u201cticket inspector!\u201d, the train rolled on again, this time to beautiful <strong>Zurich<\/strong>, in <em>Switzerland<\/em>! The stowaways managed to squeeze in a speedy lunch (cheese, anyone?) while enjoying views of sparkling lakes and tall mountains. Inky the Mouse is now convinced he&#8217;s a mountaineer. \ud83e\uddc0\ud83c\udfd4\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And tonight? Well, Rev Breakey says they will have tea tonight on <strong>Milan<\/strong> in <em>Italy<\/em>! Mamma mia! Will they try pizza or pasta? Or maybe both?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned for more adventures from Inky the Mouse and Lion, the fluffiest explorers ever to cross Europe by bus, train and snack stop. \u2728\ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddfa<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>More later&#8230;!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065125\/1000013416-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"17312\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065125\/1000013416-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065125\/1000013416-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065125\/1000013416-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065125\/1000013416-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013423-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"17315\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013423-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013423-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013423-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013423-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013424-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"17314\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013424-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013424-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013424-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065129\/1000013424-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065127\/1000013422-rotated.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"17313\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065127\/1000013422-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065127\/1000013422-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065127\/1000013422-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/public\/portpatrickprimary\/uploads\/sites\/4131\/2025\/06\/11065127\/1000013422-rotated.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, what a journey Inky the Mouse and Lion are having!
