(from Gnomar.com) People travel with all kinds of items for luck or comfort -- a favorite pillow, a stuffed animal -- but most tourists leave them in the hotel room and out of their photo albums. However, others journey with unusual buddies and give them starring roles in their vacation snapshots. Globe-trotting garden gnomes, stuffed wombats, and even blocks of cheese travel the planet, seeking adventures and creative poses, and their human companions are generous enough to share these thematic travelogues online. Sure, it might be a little depressing to think that there's a Mr. Potato Head out there who has seen more of the world than you have, but at least you can look through his albums and pretend you're in his tiny, plastic shoes.
