I was a special gift to my owner, on Valentines Day 1996 from someone very special. We are embarking on a bit of travel, so you will be able to follow our adventures and tales, as I keep this sort of diary for my owner. You could say this is my version of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Something to keep you amused while we are on our journey. Please add comments, we like to hear back from you.

London, Arrival Day


Thursday June 7, 2007
Arrived in London this morning, and staying in a hotel close to Paddington Station, so I am going to try to catch up with another Famous Bear from there. We are having a one night stopover here, before we head to Paris for an extended weekend. Our flight from Montreal was delayed over and hour, but we still managed to get into London Heathrow almost on time.
Now my owner has to get used to another currency, and buses and trains. (It cost 4 pound to ride the underground to Paddington Station, single one way fare) It's OK for me I just ride in the backpack or my special pouch, and watch the people pass by. Oh yes I did locate that distant cousin Paddington. Will update a few of my diary entries, with some pictures soon.
One interesting thing that we have noticed is the size of the soap in the hotel room, has shrunk here in London compared to sizes in Montreal and other places.
