Written By: Not Known

Guest Cast: Burping Rock

Overview: [courtesy of South Dakota PBS]

Challenge: Coping with being lost

Cassie is sick with a cold, so Emmy keeps her company while Quetzal leads Max and Ord on an adventure to find the giant Snow Dragon slide. Quetzal says they must stay together at Snowy Summit, but the boys spot a hollowed-out log and hop in for a ride. When they land, they've lost Quetzal. Searching high and low, they encounter a Burping Rock who points them in the right direction for the Snow Dragon.

What I saw:

Cassie is sick, so Emmy stays with her; Ord and Max gets lost on their way to the Snow Dragon, an old ice statue. They get help from a friend, the Burping Rock to get to the Snow Dragon, where Quetzal is waiting for them.

Comments:

Very nice of Emmy to be with Cassie. Guess she slept near the drafty window too long, the poor girl. These dragons catch cold in the form of hypothermia... What they call cold is actually hypothermia. Reptilians, like reptiles, need heat to survive and metabolize and without regular sunbathing, their bodies would get caught in the lowered temperature state, and they'd have hypothermia... which is why you need a heat lamp in your reptile's cage if you got one, even turtles need heat. The dragons have to have hot baths or hot water bottles if that's not available, warm blankets. Somebody build these guys a sauna. They sure could use it. Maybe more than one, and make 'em big. we don't want them to wait in lines.

An excellent desktop background would be the Snow Dragon, a very old ice sculpture in Snowy Summit.

Snowy Summit seems like an excellent place for cold storage of food, bury it deep enough in the snow, and they stay frozen, the snow keeps the moisture locked up in the food so they never dry out. Gret when they get bumper crops of fruit and they can use them for pies and drinks.

I just hope they don't use firebreath around the Burping Rock. It seems like he's sitting on a vent to an underground fire cave. Kinda like a level in Wizards and Warriors II: Ironsword.

Goofs/Missing Items: Not much here.
