#final-episode #bucket-list-completed #bye-bye

Over the last several weeks, Soup has run all around the island to reacquaint themselves with their villagers, grab slow cups of coffee, clean the clutter out of their room, and spruce up the island scenery. They had made themselves a bucket list of big and small tasks to complete and we followed along on their journey to complete all of their tasks. Let's see what Soup will show us today!

Soup pulls on their blue tuxedo and taps their feet into some white dress shoes. A very snazzy and sharp fit! Today must be extra special!

They run down to the center of the island and with a twirl, they say:

"Welcome to the Soup Tour!"

A tour sounds like fun! Let's follow Soup! It looks like first up is the farm.

Soup shows the pumpkins, potatoes, and carrots


This is where the pumpkins, potatoes, and carrots are grown.
You can use the ABD to withdraw cash in case you want to purchase some freshly farmed crops!

With the help of machines, our farms can be maintained much more efficiently!
Now please, follow me up the ramp to the first tier of the terrace farm!


Soup shows the sugarcane and tomatoes


We grow sugarcane and tomatoes here on the first tier! And if you follow me to the right,

Soup shows the garden


We have a garden full of rare and beautiful flowers. It takes a lot of good soil and fertilizer to keep these flowers looking beautiful!
Let's go back to the farm, where we'll go up this ramp to the top tier.


Soup shows the top tier


Ta-da! The top tier of the farm is where we grow wheat and process it.
We use windmills for power! Please be careful not to get hurt here, as there's a lot of machinery.


Soup shows the tractor


Of course, machines help us every step of the way. Thank you, technology!
Now if you follow me to the right a little bit more...


Soup shows off the orchard


This is where the orchard is! Fresh fruits all year round.
And that's about it for the farm tour!

Soup walks down the ramps back outside the farm. They adjust their bow tie and then motion for us to follow them again!

Soup is eagerly waiting for us


The next part of the Soup Tour is the forest camp tour! I'm very excited to show you this part.

Soup shows the path to the camp


As you can see, this scenic path to the campsite is full of shrubbery, cedars, and wild growth!

Here we are at the campsite! A wagon of goods, an outdoor generator, and a campfire are ready to greet all campers.
Let's go to the back of the camping area! There's a ramp here.

If we go up the ramp, there's a storage shed and bathroom. But if we go beyond those...


Soup shows off the mountainy areas


There's a mountainous forest that you can explore!

Soup looks at the farm from the forest


Look, you can even see the farm from up here!

Soup shows off the lake


And with some good trekking shoes and some wandering, you can even relax by the mountain lake!
That's the end of my tour! Thanks for coming along!


Soup says bye

With a big grin on their face, Soup waves goodbye to us while handing us a map of their renovated island:

Map of island

So much has changed here on the island, and we watched as Soup shoveled and ran and hauled as they worked hard to complete their bucket list of tasks. Soup reaches into their bag and fishes out a small piece of paper full of notes and scratches. They take out their red crayon for the final time, and...

Bucket list complete
Soup has completed everything on their bucket list! Amazing!!!

With that, it looks like Soup's bucket list journey has officially come to a close. Will there be more to come? Will there be another bucket list? Another day with Soup and their iconic blue bear hood? That's for Soup to know. But until that fateful day comes...

See you later, Soup!

The End!​

#epilogue #photo-time #friends-forever

It's been a while since we've checked in with Soup: today looks like a special day for the island residents! Soup has sent everyone an invitation to meet at Harv's Island.

Soup's DAL outfit


Please make sure to wear your DAL Airlines T-Shirt, everyone!

Soup makes a pit stop by The Roost to grab a coffee for the road. It looks like today's special blend has notes of chocolate, strawberry, and malt. Soup sips carefully as they walk down to the airport.

Soup grabs coffee to go

After flight arrangements are made, Soup waves a final goodbye to Orville before strapping themselves into their seat. And now, on Harv's Island, Soup makes sure to double check with Harvey about using his studio. Ah, yes. It looks like Soup has invited everyone over for a group picture!

It looks like the studio has a camera and lights set up already, so Soup waits as the island residents file in. It looks like Agnes is here first!

As Agnes makes herself comfortable in the studio, Sydney and Aurora come.

Next, Truffles arrives. Everyone is looking so nice in their DAL Airlines T-shirt!

As the chatter and small talk begins to pick up, Spike opens the studio door. Everyone waves hi.

When Leonardo and Huck show up together, Soup realizes that the studio space is getting a bit cramped, With Leonardo and Spike's help, the screen partitions are moved to make room for everyone.

Leonardo and Spike help move the partitions

And just as the partitions are adjusted, the final group of island residents show up: Celia, Tipper, and Raddle!

Waving hi to Celia, Tipper, Raddle

It looks like the whole gang is here now! Everyone crowds around the sofa, with the tallest residents standing in the back and sitting on the couch, and the shorter residents standing in front. Soup climbs into the director's seat to take a photo of everyone.

3, 2, 1! Say... cheese!
"But Soup," says Agnes, "you need to be in the picture too!"

Nods of agreement ripple throughout the studio as
Soup looks shyly at their friends. With a small nod and a big grin, Soup sets the timer on the camera.

With 5 seconds to go,
Soup clambers off the chair and shuffles towards the couch.

With 4 seconds to go,
Soup plops down between Raddle and Huck. They smile encouragingly at Soup before looking back towards the camera.

3, 2, 1! Cheese!

Happy 2023, from Soup and their friends to you!

~The End (for real this time!)~
