Showers in Sheffield

Sheffield, England : Distance Travelled = 19,624 miles
Hello!
I've come back from Barcelona to go to a wedding in Sheffield. We got to Sheffield and booked into our hotel and then went to check out to the Peace Gardens just outside. It was really pretty with the water cascading down from the sculptures and the water fountain. I don't know which bit I liked the best, but the Goodwin Fountain has 89 jets of water that change height, I loved it! I'm off on another adventure very soon, so I need to get some rest in now!
Bye for now.

Boogie Goes to Texas

Austin, USA : Distance Travelled = 24,400 miles
I'm in Austin Texas!
we heard that the weather was really hot there (even warmer than Barcelona) but I'm really glad I took my jacket because when we arrived, it got cold and started to rain. Just like home. (in one picture I'm sitting on a bag to stop me getting a wet bottom ... again).
These are pictures of me at the Texas State Capitol Building - I guess that is where all the important people decide important things.
It looks a bit like the White House where President Obama lives - but it is more of a cream colour. I guess that would make it the cream house ... or something.
Now - excuse me whilst I go inside and dry my fur.

Boogie in Charming Chepstow

Chepstow, Wales : Distance Travelled = 29,257 miles
Hello from Chepstow,
I've come straight back from Austin and gone to Wales. It's my first time in Wales and I really rather like it. We got to visit another castle, which was great fun. Bears like to climb trees so I thought I'd climb a tree to get a better view of the castle. It was a bit uncomfortable though, so we went closer. I love that I'm as big as the castle in the picture, it made me feel very important! We only stayed overnight in Chepstow before moving on, further in to Wales....

Boogie's View from Symonds Yat
Posted 18th March 2009 - travel companions - Vicki & Jonny
Symonds Yat, Wales : Distance Travelled = 29,271 miles
Hello!
I finished my trip to Wales by climbing up a huge hill to the Symonds Yat rock. We couldn't get to the rock itself, but the view I got was amazing! I made a lovely friend called Morgan who helped me on the fence so that I could see better, thank you! On a good day you can see Peregrine Falcons, but we didn't see any on this trip. I think I'd be a bit scared of them anyway, they're much bigger than me! It was a lovely walk up that hill, a bit much for my little legs so I had to get a lift in a rucksack. Tee hee!
I'm really proud to be bear of the day on the wheresmyteddy.com website, thank you so much! I'll keep travelling really really proudly! Another adventure soon, I'm off again on Sunday, hurrah!

Boogie goes to School
Posted 23rd March 2009 - travel companions - Vicki
Stockholm, Sweden : Distance Travelled = 30,228 miles
Hello!
I've flown all the way over to Sweden and have gone to school for the day. When I left England it was warm and sunny and springy, but as soon as we landed at the airport it began to snow, I was very surprised this morning looking out from the classroom window and seeing all the snow everywhere! The bit I liked about this music classroom was all the instruments everywhere. I found the perfect instrument for me! It's called the Ukelele, which means jumping flea in Hawaiian! It's just the right size for me to play. I'm not very good on it yet, but who knows I could be as good as Jake Shimabukuro! Well maybe not! That's all for now, but another update very soon!

Boogie and the Ocarina
Posted 26th March 2009 - travel companions - Vicki
Braintree, England : Distance Travelled = 31,082 miles
Hello!
I'm back home again, brrr, it was really cold in Sweden! Because I've been on the road so much my old jacket got a bit torn on the back and was falling apart :( So my family spent ages trying to get a new jacket for me, but they couldn't find the same jacket, so I've got a brand new one from Sweden. It's lovely and big and warm, it should keep me going for a good long while!
So when I got home I decided that I'd like to play another instrument that I could actually reach, and I spotted this lovely ocarina on the shelf. I love it, it's blue and shiny and makes a wonderful sound. I found a gentleman on youtube that has got lots of videos, he plays very nicely! Apparently the ocaina was probably first played about 12,000 years ago in China, wow! The name that we use now though comes from the Italian meaning little goose, tee hee! I like that name!
That's all for now. I'm back on the road again next week, so I've got a few days to catch up on my sleep!
Hope you're all well
