Teddy on a Mission

Just so you know, I am a traveling bear. This is a place where I can share text & pictures of the fun (and hopefully worthwhile) things I do with my unparents, Ken and Marijke.

Name:
Location: Greer, South Carolina, United States

I started this blog for the bear-loving friends in my church mostly since they were kind enough to send me on a mission trip to France. That was in 2006. Hopefully I'll get to go on other trips, too (like this most recent extended trip in 2009). But my main mission is to bear each blessed day with gratitude.

Backwards Souvenirs




Ken & Marijke are always looking for memorable little silver spoons (I love that people still make them bear-size over here) and they happened to find several with churches on them. So, instead of first seeing a certain steeple and then trying to find the spoon for it, they are sightseeing backwards, so to speak. Yesterday and today I therefore got to see both Hoorn (above) and Delft (below) to accomplish part of this mission. Neat trick, eh?






Another 'find' was a trio of well-made little pots - for jam, marmalade and dutch chocolate sprinkles! (The spoons will be very helpful for all of these, don't you think?)


Notice that the next shot is an M-self-portrait. You'll have to left-click on it to make it big enough to see Marijke smiling at you...


I LOVE shopping and traveling with these humans; they rarely act their age. - TR
