An Outing (We Guess)

Our good friends, German and Peggy invited us out to a fair yesterday. We rode in the front seat with them and enjoyed the countryside.

But, we didn't see any of the wonderful sights that they talked about. Pooey!!

Yes, it was a bit disappointing, but Peggy is really fun to be with and it was good to get out of the apartment for a day.

Boring!! I wanted to be admired by the thousands of people who came to the fair.

I don't think many Spaniards would know what to make of us, Honey Bunny.

Well, that's just their fault. I got very tired and, on the way home, I took a long nap in Dad's arms. That made up for a lot of the rest of it.

Yes, and Peggy took good care of me too. It was a fun outing.

Mom's Meditation Space

Mom got her meditation space finished today and we got a place of honor looking out over her altars and outdoors to the terrace.

The room is kinda like a glassed-in porch. It's sort of an inside-outside kinda place, with brick and white-painted walls, and a nice wood floor.

Mom and Dad say the space feels really great.

There are some cats that prowl on the terrace, so I'm glad we are safely inside.

Me too. I actually saw a cat catch a bird out there today and it wasn't pretty.

I averted my eyes. It was just too much for my delicate sensibilities.

Yes, we know how delicate you are, Princess.

SO?

We're considering staying out here most of the time. It is just such a special place, and we are not far from Mom and Dad at night.

Mom was SO excited a few mornings ago--she woke up early and looked out from the bed through the windows in the sunroom/meditation room to the sky above the rooftop terrace, and there was a sliver of a waning moon rising. Talk about romantic!

She even nudged Dad so he'd wake up and see. Talk about romantic!

Our New Home

Here we are in our new home. Mom and Dad have been working so hard to get us here that we haven't even asked for a new post.

Now that they are finished with the move we will demand some more photos to show everything we have in our new place.

We've had several visitors and they have enjoyed meeting us. They have all admired my knife a great deal and commented on HoneyBunny's attractive attire. Our Spanish is not very good, but they understand (at least when Mom or Dad speaks for us).

If you want to see more pictures of our house and our wonDerFUL view--Mom says it's a view most Spaniards crave--our balcony looks right out on the plaza mayor!--anyway, if you want to see more pictures, visit "Dad's" blog at http://havingfununtilidie.blogspot.com

Semana Santa

Well, it is about time that someone put up a post for our adoring fans. Mom and Dad have been really neglecting us these past weeks.

Now Honey Bunny, you know that they had to work very hard to get us out of Santa Fe and all set up here in Spain. Give them a break!

I’m still in a snit about how long it has been since we have had some recognition. But Dad has promised to do better in the future.

Well, you’ll have to admit that riding on the paso -- that's Spanish for a religious "float" -- for the Holy Week procession was pretty special.

You know as well as I do that we were left at home and Dad just did one of his tricks to make it look like we were there.

OK, I’ll admit that we were there

 only in spirit, but I’m not sure I would have wanted to actually see some of the stuff they were parading around with. It all looked pretty bloody to me. We bears are mostly vegetarian and I don't go in for blood.

Bloody, yes, but dramatic 

and you know how I go for drama.

Yes you certainly are a drama queen, that’s for sure.

I don’t think I like the sound of that.

Well, drama queen or not, you are my princess.

Oh you say the nicest things, Brown Bear. You are my best friend, too.
