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.

Bus and Bike Trips to Eindhoven 'Two Last Times'





Getting to Eindhoven for a couple last looks around and some shopping was fun - by bus one time. Ken was a little offended that some young people gave up their seat for him, though. (Note the fabric on this chair?)

Check out this construction site and the wrapped up escalators ready to be installed.



Marijke never lets a church go by without a photo - here's a protestant one ...


as well as a catholic one that really got hit in the war. What a renovation job this was!







We got to see some great architecture as well as the market, some American paraphanalia and a swell merry-go-round.










We really came to see the Phillips museum, though. This town is light-bulb crazy, as anyone can tell after just a quick look around.







My favorite method of transportation is still bicycle - especially with Tante Magda. You see so much more - like swimming dogs. It's really surprising how many open spaces there are between her house and the center of town! Love, Teddy




P.S. We rode back from Eindhoven via Waalre. One of Ken's favorite places.



And, of course, there is a quaint church in this town, too:
