Carerfilly Trip Planned -- It's a Picnic

[twilightpony]

While soaking in the hot tub at the Ponyville Spa, I announced my intention to Rarity to head over to Carerfilly Castle to browse the books. Rarity thought that we should all go. It would be a great excuse for a picnic and to see how her mended tapestries were holding up. Dash volunteered to get the word out to Pinkie and Applejack. Fluttershy, surrounded by friends in the warm relaxing embrace of the hot tub and feeling brave, said she would come too. She's curious what late spring has brought to the Everfree. I could almost see manticore cubs dancing in her eyes.

So we're going tomorrow! Spike has packed a pot, bowls and the ingredients for alfalfa cube, apple slice sugar beet pulp soup. I've packed quills, ink and scrolls, and I've invited Zecora. I intend to get there early and to leave late.

Awesome, that should be good! A nice day browsing books and being with friends.

I'm afraid that I mostly neglected my pony friends in favor of the book kind today.

I'm sure they understand! I know it's easy for you to get sucked into a book.

Ah, book browsing. There's a small two-story used book store in my town, full of older, out-of-print, and other interesting books. I like to walk down there and browse the place every now and then.

Sounds like it'll be a nice, quiet picnic for y'all. I'm assuming that'll be a nice change from the giant surprise party picnic?

I think I, or we, were safe from surprise party plans. The Everfree is a dangerous place. Pinkie still managed to play pranks with the "organ to the outside" and the hidden passages. But otherwise, yes, it was mostly stress free.
