Dora The Explorer

I mentioned at some time that I was going to Dannevirke in Dora. Well now is the time to introduce you to Dora. Dora is a 1998 Ford Explorer 4 litre 4 wheel drive towing machine. Her role in life used to be to tow a boat. Now she's a family mover. Part of the fleet which comprises The Handbag, Dora and Shrek. You will be introduced to Shrek later. But why, you ask, should the Explorer be called Dora apart from the obvious reason that they rhyme. Well the answer lies in New Zealand Children's Television where Dora is a pre-school cartoon character. I think, however, that she's actually created in California but, well, what's new there then?

Dora's alphabet:

A is for Aliens
B is for Boots
C is for Crocodile
D is for Dora
E is for Explorer Stars
F is for Frog
G is for Grumpy Troll
H is for Hide
I is for Isa
J is for Jump
K is for Kitten
L is for Little Star
M is for Map

N is for Noisy Snake
O is for Owl
P is for Presents
Q is for Quiet
R is for Robot
S is for Swiper
T is for Tip toe
U is for Unicorn
V is for Violin
W is for Wizzle
X is for Xylophone
Y is for Yo-yo
Z is for Zip


Thought you'd like to know that.
