Travis meets other bears

G'day!

So today the day started pretty quietly. When it got a bit crowded in the covered part of the restaurant - that's what it's called, where my older ones always get something to eat - my oldest went outside to one of the tables with her coffee and of course her buddy bear (i.e. me 😇). Beach moved. There was no one else there and it was wonderfully quiet.

Then I was allowed back on the boat. This time I was able to observe more from the background. I was more relaxed then than in the middle.

And when you have a bit of leisure, you suddenly see a lot of cool things.

For example, I noticed that there was a bear bucket!

My older ones always put their underwater goggles in there before jumping in so that they don't fog up while diving. Something goes in there beforehand to wipe the windows. I still have to find out what that is.

And there are usually other divers on the boat - you get to know people from all over the world. And of course there is always someone who accompanies my two older ones under the water so that nothing happens to them and they don't get lost. The guide (that's what they call it) is called Yopi - I'll add a picture with him later. He always finds really small things. My oldest says she wouldn't even be able to see them with reading glasses.

Well, anyway, I met a really nice diver from Italy. And when we were back on land, she showed me a picture of the logo of her nonprofit organization that helps children when they have to go to the hospital. And what was on it? Of course also a bear:

And here in Siladen I was also allowed to take a photo with dear Ana. She is the manager of the house and always makes sure that everyone is doing well and that no one is missing anything.

It's great that they're all so nice to me. And a lot of people ask if they can also read what I'm saying here. Of course that pleases me. And it makes me just a little bit proud ☺️

So, that's it for now. My two older ones have something really cool planned tomorrow. I hope I can come along!

Love from Travis the Buddy Bear
