26th March 2011
Today, we went out for a "posh" afternoon tea to celebrate with some friends of my host. As it was posh we dressed up :)
We went in a Limo - this one was all pink inside, and was apparently a "stretch Hummer"
Here I am with some of the food, there were sandwiches too, but i prefered the top layers lol
Just thought i'd pose with one of the Table decorations :)
Here is me having a sip of champagne - I'm only a small bear after all :)
There was more after this, we went back in the limo to a pub and had choclate cake yummm

17th March 2011 - St Patricks Day
I went out tonight, my current host had been invited to a "leaving do" for a friend who is leaving the area and returning "home". As it was St Patricks Day we had to wear green. Here's me at my place wearing the dress made for me.
We had Poppadoms for Starters. They were yum.... 
Very nice it was too.
Next, well that was a new experience for me. We played a game, they called it the "malteaser game". You had to "pick up" the malteser using only a straw, and pass it onto the next person same way. It was amusing, here's my go
Unfortunatly, the only person who actually managed to "pick up" the malteser was this lady
The game soon degenerated into "blow football" where each side of the table were blowing maltesers with the straws and seeing if they could get it off the other side lol.

It was a buffet style curry place, ie help yourself to what you want. This is what I had
Very nice it was too.
Also, had a drink (well I wasnt driving)

13th March 2011
Today we got up, and went to "church". Its a lovely friendly place, and different to a lot of other churches i've heard about, its very informal. It was http://www.lighthousechurchhawkinge.co.uk/ here.
I met the vicar, very nice chap he is too.
They let me play the piano.
I was also allowed to help with the laptop, they use this to put the words onto the big screen so that the lovely people know what to sing.

A Very Bon Voyage
Where I've been I wasn't able to update my blog everyday so I'll have to let you all know what I've been up to all in one go :-)
16.10.10
Phew what a busy bear I have been! I arrived to stay with Emma and Alan and they seemed to be doing an awful lot of rushing about and putting clothes in cases. Then I got excited when I realised I was going on holiday with them. I was a bit curious when they said they hoped I had good sea legs.
We went for a long journey in the car and arrived in Southampton, which was very nice but a strange place to go on holiday. Emma said I should get a good night's sleep in the hotel as tomorrow would be very exciting.
17.10.10
Woke up quite early this morning and then came to a big building full of lots of people. I was given this card
and had to wait until the letter was called out. Then we walked down a long bendy tunnel and I found myself on an enormous ship.
The rooms here are called cabins and the beds are very comfy
the sun beds are lovely too
Apparently we are going to the Canary Islands. I don't think I've been there before but it sounds nice.
19.10.10
When Emma asked if I fancied a Hurricane I said I didn't think that was a very good idea on a ship. Then she gave me this drink. Hic!
Ahh this is the life.
20.10.10
Well I never – there I was in the cabin having a little snooze while Emma and Alan were out and in comes this man and puts me up here
The cheek of it. Emma and Alan seemed to find it very amusing and said something about a cabin steward.
21.10.10
Today we got off the ship for the first time in a place called Madeira. It was raining a lot but I stayed nice and dry in Emma's bag. We went to a place where wicker things are made and I found this reindeer, which I thought was very clever.
22.10.10
We're in La Palma today and the sun is shining. It is very pretty. Here I am singing along with the local band.
All that singing was thirsty work so I had a delicious pineapple juice. Yum!
23.10.10
Another new place today – Gran Canaria. Blimey it's hot! I had a lie on the beach at Maspalomas (with sun screen of course)
24.10.10
Goooooood mooooorning Tenerife. Another hot day. I think I may be getting a tan. We had a lovely day at Puerto de la Cruz.
25.10.10
The ship is at sea today so I decided to have a rest – I need it after all the excitement of the past few days.
26.10.10
Today we sailed into Lisbon. It was touch and go getting under that bridge but we made it. We went on a trip to Cascais and Sintra, which were both very pretty. Here I am in Sintra
27.10.10
I was left on the ship today as Emma and Alan were going to a spa and didn't want me to get wet. They seemed very quiet and sleepy when they got back.
28.10.10
It is the last day of the cruise today so we had to pack everything away.
I am sad to be leaving the ship but I've had a lovely time.
Thank you for a smashing holiday, Emma and Alan. I've enjoyed my life on the ocean wave but now it's time for my next adventure...

Holiday Time!
I have been staying with Ali and Graeme with Lucy, Meg and Murphy. We've been off to the Yorkshire Dales! It was a bit chilly so I had to wrap up warm. I was told that it was colder than normal - we even had a couple of snow showers on our walks.
When we arrived at the cottage I made friends with the bear who lives in the garden. he props the door open... and was just a bit handsome!
I helped plan the walks. I would spread out the Ordnance Survey maps, consult the weather forecast, check my compass and plan our route. We only got lost once.
Sometimes we walked high up on the moors and sometimes by rivers. We saw lots of birds, many were nesting so I was very lucky that none of them tried to pull out my fur for nest material! There was lots of ducklings on the rivers, very cute - but not as cute as me of course!
We did a stretch of the Pennine Way and also wandered along the Leeds Liverpool Canal.
My little legs are very tired from all that walking. We are home again now and I have been helping in the garden this weekend. I need to get my washing done as I'll soon be thinking of packing my bags to head off on my next adventure!
