Brom flies solo

Coocoo

You will never guess where I am! I am in Northern Ireland with Gera! It is so exciting. I will tell you all about it.

When we were all on our holiday in September, Gera told Mara again of the teddy bear festival her church was organising. She had talked about it before, but the dates got changed a few times I think. But now they were really going to have the festival. 

Then, a few weeks after we got back to Norway, Gera posted a little poster of it on Facebook. Mara asked for fun whether they needed another bear and Gera said they could always use more! Well, that got Mara thinking. She knew I had to look my best, so I had my snout operation and then...

Do you see the purple owl?
Mara made that last year during our holiday together in Northern Ireland
She found my nicest clothes and a few sheep and she helped me write a little letter for the teddy bear church people. And then, she PACKED ME IN A BOX!!! Because Mara didn't have the time to take me there, I was going all by myself. I think I was in a car and on a plane, but I am not sure. But yesterday, a week after Mara sent me away, I had arrived in Northern Ireland. 

I thought I was going to be okay in the box, but I must admit it was a bit tight for a whole seven days. And I don't know what Gera does, but she looks at a computer screen all day and types and types and types! There's not even a cat there!!!

Anyway, after she finished working, we went to Starbucks and (don't tell Mara) I had a little sip of Gera's coffee. Tomorrow (Sunday) I will meet the teddy bear church people and I hope they let me be in the festival.

    1. Well, it is that long if you are going by mail! But I hope it will be faster on the way back. Although perhaps in a bit bigger box.

  2. Mara, if I may address Mara and not Brom, you are very weird, which is likely a good thing. ;)
