Casey's Flat Stanley Visits the 
Isle of Harris, Scotland!
When Stanley left Casey's Aunt Jaime in New York City, we didn't know where he was going to turn up. 
He has turned up in Scotland, visiting Shona and friends!

 The Isle of Lewis and Harris is off the western coast of Scotland in the Atlantic Ocean. It is the largest of the Outer Hebrides islands.


Stanley is enjoying the beautiful scenery in the Isle of Harris.

It looks like Stanley is kicking up his heels about playing tennis.

 The sign for this school is in Gaelic and English.

 That looks like a castle or a church in the background. Scotland has many beautiful old castles all over the country.

Stanley made some wonderful new friends!





Stanley visited this golf course. Many people think golf started in Scotland.

 This sign describes a type of limpet. It is written in English and Braille.

Stanley thought the lobster looked as good as Maine lobster.


 This lobster trap reminded Stanley of home!

 What a beautiful beach!

 Stanley fits comfortably in this pocketbook made out of Harris tweed. it makes a very cozy sleeping bag for him.

 Harris tweed is a very famous type of cloth made from wool. Stanley loved all the different colors.

 Stanley helped out weaving the cloth on this big loom.

 Stanley did some shopping here. He wanted to try some biscuits when he found out they are what we call cookies.

Faith's Flat Stanley is in Hawaii!
 She is visiting Aya in Honolulu.
Hawaii was the last state to join the United States. It is made up of eight larger islands and many small islands. It is located 2,000 miles away from the rest of the United States in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Hawaii is the only state completely surrounded by water.

 The capital of Hawaii is Honolulu.

Stanley is visiting Aulani, a Disney resort and spa. It is in Kapolei on the island of Oahu.

 Stanley is at Ala Moana Beach Park in Honolulu. You can see the volcano "Diamondhead" in the background. Stanley was relieved that it wasn't erupting.
 


 Stanley loved the beach and the palm trees. The water is so beautiful. She wanted to go swimming but thought it might not be a good idea.
 Stanley is at the Kahala hotel and Resort in Honolulu. It was a bit windy but she held on tight!
These beautiful flowers are found in Mililani District Park.

Royce's Flat Stanley Tours New York City
Stanley is visiting Stefanie in N.Y.
New York is a very busy city! Stanley is staying on Long Island.

Wow! Look at all the streets in the city!

You can see the city skyline in the background.

We are coming into the city on the 59th Street Bridge.


I am standing under the subway tracks! it is really cool down here! They connect to the bridge that goes over the East River. It is called the 59th street/ Ed Koch/Queensboro Bridge. That is a long name for a bridge!

Look! There goes the subway!

That is a city bus behind me. There are many different forms of transportation in the city.

There goes a taxi!


Behind me is the Roosevelt Island Tramway. That looks like fun! I think I remember seeing it in a Spiderman movie. It connects Roosevelt Island in the East River to Manhattan Island.
