Day 5 - Obama Won & the Louvre!

Joy of Joy! Obama has won! The threat to Moose around the world, all their cousins, the Elks, and every living animal that could be hunted had been averted!
Palin was headed back to Alaska!

Sheep was relieved! Although all the treaties he had signed and the coalitions he had formed weren't needed, he knew the work had been important and had opened up several key discussions that Sheep felt would be critical to the future.

To celebrate, Sheep headed over to the Louvre. He thinks Venus is way far prettier than Palin.

Day 4 - Election Day & Musee d'Orsay


Day 4 was the day! Election day back in the States. Sheep was so nervous! He started the day in Paris by watching election results on CNN, but got so anxious he decided to get out and distract himself. He also thought he should follow-up on Mules' suggestion that he speak with Horses, as they carried much more authority and had far greater prominence in Paris.
So sheep headed over to the Musee d'Orsay. After a quick run through the galleries of Renoir, Cezzane, Monet, Degas and Rodin, Sheep headed into the forecourt for a meeting with Pierre Rouillard's Cheval à la herse (Plough Horse). Foundried by Antoine Durenne, it was commissioned in 1877 for l'Exposition universlle de 1878, and belonged to the gardens of the first palais du Trocadèro (Trocadèro palace).
He and Plough Horse, after several hours of discussion, decided to sign an agreement, throwing the support of horses behind the campaign against Palin. Although the need would be mute if Obama won, Sheep wanted to continue working to being prepared.

Before heading back to the right bank, Sheep and Horse posed for a picture. See Sheep way down there...underneath horse?

Day 3 in Paris: Touring and Dinner

Meeting with so many animals and sounding the call for support was an exhausting business. Several of Sheep's new friends invited him to travel with them to the Eiffel Tower, although he did not venture up.

Following the visit to the tower, Sheep enjoyed dinner at a fancy Parisian restaurant.

Day 2 in Paris: Meeting More Friends


Following his visit with mules, Sheep headed deeper into Paris; specifically, to the Latin Quarter. There, he met with Goat, representing Sheep's cousins. Together, they discussed their mutual concern that if Vice Presidential candidate Palin is willing to hunt a vegetarian (Moose), then the future would look bleak for their species.


Here, Goat and Sheep pause for a photo op prior to going for lunch.

Sheep Meets Friends in Paris: Day 1


On day one, Sheep began networking with animals in Paris. Here, he meet with a group of mules, who shared Sheep's concerns that VP candidate Palin was inflaming sensitivities of animals around the world.
Although not related to moose, the mules had concerns that Palin might decide to reestablish mules as a major source of transportation in the western parts of the United States, under the guise of energy-efficient transportation.
Talks with the mules resulted in an agreement that the mules would refuse to cooperate with human in the case that Palin did become VP of America. In addition, they encouraged sheep to visit with their cousins, the horses, who had greater authority and responsibility in and around Paris. The mules felt that the horses should lead any opposition marches that might be organized prior to or following the United States elections.
All in all...a good day on the quest to unite the animals of the world.

Sheeps Adventures in Paris (aka - The Palin Plan)


The call was clear. The moment was now. Republican Vice- Presidential Candidate, Sarah Palin had thrown down the gauntlet and Sheep rose to the challenge. Palin's message to Americans, "Real Women Hunt Moose," had stirred something deep within sheep. He was, after all, the symbol of peace amongst all...lions and lambs laying together....Sheep's Moose friends begged him for help. "Get the message out! We must rally the animals across the world and rid the world of this hate!"And so, Sheep headed for France.

Sheep arrives in Paris and begins by reviewing the map.
