Arnold's Balloon Trip

High above the clouds, not far from where you or I live, there is a magnificent pink and white mountain made of candy. The rocky parts of the mountain are made out of ice cream, and the snow is made out of ultra delicious icing. The path is actually a slide which you use to go all the way down into a hole which leads you to the best place in all the world…

…a whole haven made out of pink and white candy! And here are me and my friends, playing and sharing together inside this beautiful mountain. Snarf, Rex, Bad Bob, Wendy, Vince, Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Luke, Resus, Cleo, and of course me.

Snarf over here is climbing up the bubble gum volcano. The top is all sticky from various gentle eruptions of the good stuff. Snarf looks inside, and sees a large bubble gum bubble floating out. He reaches out to touch it, but then gets trapped inside it. He feels quite calm and serene trapped inside the bubble, and quite happy. Suddenly, he notices he is heading towards a candy cane spike! He tries to run but can’t, he’s trapped inside the bubble, then…POP! The bubble bursts, and Snarf hangs onto the sticky bit for dear life, until he falls! POOSH! Snarf has landed on the giant marshmallows that floor the mountain.

In that part of the mountain, Vince and his friends Rex The Runt, Wendy and Bad Bob are all bouncing on marshmallows, having a bit of a laugh. Vince is bouncing off the walls like someone who has eaten too much sugary stuff, and once he calms down, he tastes a bit of one enormous pink marshmallow - OH! MMMMM! GOOD LORD! These marshmallows taste like angels inside his mouth! Rex, Wendy and Bad Bob share some of the stuff too, and soon they are feeling Heaven in their mouths. In fact, rarely have they had any sweet treats during their show - all they had was meat and vegetables and dog food. Gross!

As for the ponies, they’re over there by the candy cane-shaped ice cream geyser. Twilight, Pinkie and Rainbow are gathered around the geyser with eyes as big as saucers, waiting for the ice cream to come sploodging out of the geyser. Suddenly, SKMOOSH! Out comes the ice cream, and it lands on the floor beside Twilight and her two friends. “Everyone get out a cone!” cries Pinkie, and everyone breaks off a piece of candy cane spike to use as a cone for their ice cream. Once they taste - ooooh, what heavenly vanilla flavour! It’s as if the vanilla flavour was developed from Heaven or something. And you know what? It tastes even better with a Flake. Pinkie keeps some of these in her bum bag pocket just so the ponies should use it in case of an emergency ice cream rainfall.

And far off is a lake and a waterfall, which is made out of lucious hot cocoa! Luke, Resus, Cleo and I have taken off our shoes and socks and are having a fun time splashing and drinking from the most beautiful brown lake in the history of candy wonderlands. It tastes just like the hot chocolate we drink in Winter at home - only, it’s just as warm and is about the size of a hot tub! This is the best we’ve experienced all day ever since we came to this island. Tell that to Arnold, he’s been there and he has a lot of stories to tell should he get older.

But in the middle of the mountain is a tree which grows lots of candy by the light of the moon. Every full moon the magical moonbeams shine onto the trees to make candy magically appear, and that’s exactly where my friends and I are at now - waiting for candy to grow on the tree at midnight. “Is it midnight yet?” Pinkie keeps asking. “In one more second,” says Rex. Suddenly, a funny noise sounds. “Look!” I cry as lots of little sweet treats and chocolates begin growing on the branches, “Sweets!” “How beautiful,” sighs Twilight. “Yay! A full feast!” my siblings and I squeal. “Just wait and see,” says Bad Bob. “It IS a magic candy tree,” says Rainbow Dash. “Brace yourselves, guys,” I say, “Let’s pick those candies!” And here we go, picking the candies and eating them. Which reminds me of a scene in Noddy’s life during Midsummer Day…

“Is it midnight yet?” asks Sly as he, Noddy, Tessie Bear, Gobbo and Big Ears stand in the darkness of the forest, waiting for something to happen. “In one more second,” warns Big Ears. Suddenly, a magical noise signals the arrival of the golden leaves on the tree they are standing in front of. “Look!” cries Noddy, “Golden leaves!” “How beautiful,” swoons Tessie. The goblins get very excited over this. “RICH! WE’RE GOING TO BE RICH!” they shout in evil glee. “Just you wait and see,” chuckles Big Ears with an evil look on his face. “It IS a magic Midsummer tree,” gasps Noddy. Sly and Gobbo grab some sacks and run to the tree. “Let’s pick those leaves!” shouts Gobbo, and they did.

Well, you can tell how those two scenes are exactly alike. And wait a minute, have you got Kipper: Christmas Eve and Noddy The Champion on video? If you do, I suggest you watch them right away. You’ll thank me later.

THE END.
