Bears of the Caribbean!

Hi, we're George & Yorkie and you'll be seeing quite a lot of us as we're the travelling bears. For our minders it's a case of 'have bear will travel' and where they go we go. It's basically our size that makes us very suitable for travelling and we find stowing away in a variety of small spaces quite easy. What we lack in size we make up for in personality and as you will discover in the days to come we get up to some great adventures.

Here we are in swash buckling form aboard a traditional Icelandic fishing boat. We're perched up in the rigging looking out for whales. We only saw one on this occasion but it was a splendid minke and well worth seeing. We won the prize for seeing it first and celebrated with a welcome tot of rum just like the seasoned sailors we are.
