Ko-Ko’s History Lesson 101
This is what happened…meow by meow…as witnessed by the pussycat…moi! It all began when Mumzy and Popzy decided to travel to Belgium. They enjoy travelling to historical places, therefore they dragged the resident cat…again namely moi…along. Do not ask me as to why, for I do not know other than the fact that they believe that it is imperative to teach the pussycat…namely moi, once again…history! Thus, I am going to pass on my vast knowledge unto you…whomever you may be…whether you like it or not…So there!…Besides, knowledge must be passed on. Back to the story. Alas, we arrived in Belgium. If you wish to know more about the plane ride…read my book, Cat Paws Through History, Ko-Ko the Cat Meets Napoleon Bonaparte. Having arrived in Belgium, we then rented a vehicle and drove to Waterloo. The battlefield, where the Battle of Waterloo was fought, is in the vicinity of the town of Waterloo. It was in this horrendous battle, that the great Napoleon Bonaparte was defeated. It took place in the year 1815. AKH! This is already much too much information for one day. I can feel my fur rising. I need a rest. A cat nap to be exact. Therefore, bits and pieces will be shared on a daily basis. Poor fellow…Napoleon, that is…I rather liked him when I met him. If you wish to know more…read the book! Until tomorrow…Ta-ta!
