| Hi Sophie. I'm just popping by with some Wonderland wishes, for my journey is almost over now that I am one step closer to the red/white/queen/king. Enjoy your day! |
I am one step closer to White/Red Queen/King. Are you curious? Have you read Alice in Wonderland? Have you played chess? Then come on over to Wonderland. I’m one step closer to completing a month-long journey through the mind of Lewis Carroll. Again.
