We are pleased to welcome Little Sam to our family!
Little Sam will be staying with Polar Bear and me for the time being, before we all go back to Switzerland in a few weeks.
He has actually been here for some time but I have not been able to get to a computer for a while, it has been very busy around here!
More on that to come………

As we said previously, we like to play a game we call Mountains!
Today, we have some photos of the mountain we climbed!
To be honest, we are excellent mountain climbers, we have never been beaten by a mountain. Today’s mountain was pretty easy, just something for us to climb before a relaxing weekend.
I point the way to the summit, some distance in the sky:

Before a climb, we like to get a burst of energy by shouting “Yay, Mountains!!!”

Polar Bear is a little lighter than me so he quickly scrambles ahead to check out the terrain higher up and report back any useful info to me, after I give him a useful hand up the mountain side

Once Polar Bear has cleared the mountain for me, I begin my ascent. Polar Bear is an extremely useful and accomplished climbing partner and uses his strength to help me reach the summit

Things get very dramatic as I am so close to joining my best friend at the top, just one more push and Polar Bear hauls me up to his ledge!

That was a great climb!
We celebrate with a nice happy photo on the ledge and a nice Mountain lunch!

Yay Mountains!!!!

Phew! What a scorcher!
I am in Riga once again with the Silly One while Shush Bear is in Australia. We are in the same hotel as on our last visit but this trip is very different.
Last time the weather was perfect for me, minus 15 degrees at times. This time, it is 32 degrees! Far too hot for a Polar Bear!
I have no choice but to relax in the hotel room with plenty of water to keep me cool.

The Silly One set me up with a nice pillow to sleep on during the day and of course, I sleep in the bed at night, but he does make some very strange noises, he is even louder than me at full volume!
