Monday, September 2, 2013: Labor Day

First post! I hope you enjoy! :)

This morning when I played at 7am was a money-making morning at Liontown! (I kept the town name the same as in City Folk in this version.) I was playing till 8:20am, and I made at least 100,000 Bells, so I paid it off for the Dream Suite. I can't wait to explore a bunch of new towns! :)

Today was also Labor Day. I got a picnic basket. I think I got that in City Folk, too...

(By the way, this is a dream come true to be able to post pictures of a portable Animal Crossing game for a blog for my past self. I wanted to do this in Wild World, but alas... I could not. :P)

I also saw Phineas for the first time! In City Folk, he would give out pinwheels and balloons at the city. In New Leaf, he gives out badges that are essentially achievements. I got one for bug-catching.

Notice my red Pikmin hat (ALSO that I wore in City Folk!)? I got that and... gasp... Link's cap from fortune cookies! I'd always wanted to be Link in City Folk, but it was difficult to acquire those items. Now, it's much easier. You can trade Play Coins for fortune cookies, which you can eat and get Nintendo items like Mario stuff, Metroid, Legend of Zelda, Pikmin, etc. Just go for walks with your 3DS and you'll be all set to getting a bunch! :)

While catching fish for easy money, I caught a whale shark, and for some reason a big deal was made about it. Sharks are much more common in this game than in previous ones. Or maybe it's just because it's still summer...

Also, here's a picture of my house. It's basically a concert hall; you can see a bunch of instruments all around, can't you? The picnic basket and a Fi mask I got are below, and in the back is all the chairs. The golden chair is one I customized last night. The first thing I customized from Cyrus! And it looks good! :)

Whoops, didn't really mean to publish it... Oh well. I don't think I'll really have much time to play later, anyway. If I do, I'll just update tomorrow or later tonight... Tomorrow will be exciting! Hopefully I'll get the Dream Suite and Club LOL, since I unlocked those (Shrunk is currently building the club, and I just paid off the Dream Suite this morning). We'll see what happens... Thanks for reading, and I hope we will enjoy Animal Crossing: New Leaf together for the next while! It's a pretty fun game, with a lot more features than City Folk, so... This will be fun! :)
