On our way tot he teapot we encounter the walking tree again, now with silver streamers along its branches. Sycamore seeds are floating to the ground and some even manage to catch one. A squirrel is handing out dandelions, stating you can make a wish. I take a deep breath almost choking on the pappus I inhale.

Seven goblins sit around the teapot drinking tea. There's some kind of riddle "What you want to say, say it another way". No idea what to say I just call out "Bubbles!!", inspired by all the floating bubbles around here. We enter the teapot and leave it again in a bubble via its spout. I cartwheel in my bubble having tons of fun. This carnival is turning out to be quite enjoyable. I must make sure to make the most of it. It's not like we find this place that often... Dhanell manages to steer his bubble towards the staff area, but encounter a bramble wall on his way there.

My bubble pops close to a lily pond, where you can go on a dragonfly ride. But first time to get some drinks! We enter the Feasting Orchards where there are several stalls serving drinks and food and music can be heard all around. Frostbite stocks up on cookies, but I'm drawn to a stall where there's a big "Custard Pie eating contents" sign. Remembering my glorious hot-dog eating contest win once upon a time I decide to enter. Frostbite also joins in. Dhanell takes care of some trash talk to my opponents stating I'll definitely be the winner! I grab an additional drink to wash down the custard pies. These pies are certainly not like hot dogs and after seven of them I pass out. As I wake up again after a tap on my shoulder, I see Frostbite has achieved to win with an insane amount of pies eaten. I guess the songs of encouragement played by Maeve helped him out. Great work, and I think I occasionally notice a smirk on his face. I learn there will be another contest in an hour. I might be back to get my revenge :).

On to the next activity, but not before I get another few drinks, I got two hands after all. We pass a tent where you can do a stare down against a cyclops. Ashara is up for the challenge and manage to win! She receives a nice bottle of wine which, when opened, plays nice music. She shares the win with the group. I start to feel a slight buzz.
