Gondola Bears


Piran, June 2003

While we were in Slovenia we wanted to go on a trip to the world famous city of Venice. From Slovenia we left Piran on a catamaran boat. Roger said it didn't look like a tall ship at all. McBear on the other hand was excited because of its speed and advanced technology (after all, McBear is an Aquarian). Cruising across the Gulf of Venice the boat did 36 knots, and some of us nearly got seasick!

Visiting Venice we bought appropiate gondolier hats. Pinbar, however, was slightly too small to wear a hat while Angus, being born with an ice bag on his top of his head, couldn't find any hat that would fit.

We took a taxi boat round the canals of Venice. Roger got very upset as McBear got a chance to sit by the captain. Roger felt entitled to the captain's seat while McBear - according to Roger - was entitled to become a cabin boy.
- Yawn, yawn, McBear replied, and within 5 minutes they were best friends again.

Venice has around 200 gondolas each of which costs 60,000 euros - enough to buy a big Mercedes! Roger was thinking of buying one.

We ended at the St. Mark's Square with its thousands of pidgeons. As usual, Tom was in a party mood and we had a hard time cooling him down.

Finally we had our photo taken with this famous background often seen in tour guides and on postcards.

On the way back to Piran Roger told us about the various boats we passed on our way. Here, a police patrol boat is passing by.
