This Buddy Bear represents the German island of Sylt. It's located in the North Sea and is a very popular summer destination for well-heeled Germans. There's even a salad dressing named for the place (though I don't like it much).
Today is a holiday in Germany and I spent most of it playing in a golf tournament. Unfortunately, it's back to the grind for me tomorrow, but at least this little break has made the week a bit shorter.
He is dressed for the beach!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very welcoming bear. Brought a smile to my face. Hope you did well in the golf tournament.
ReplyDeleteI think it is cute! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool bear!
ReplyDeleteThe bear looks very welcoming with its cool outfit on.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of our Outer Banks--Sylt, I mean. Not the bear. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love this cute bear. The funny boots!

Sylt means Jam in Swedish. Never been to the island but it's on my list.
ReplyDeleteI love those bears! I also loved workday holidays when I had my nose to the grindstone - helped save my sanity.
ReplyDeleteCute !!
ReplyDeleteIt was also a holiday by us in the Netherlands celebrating the liberation in the second world war. I wonder what the Germans are celebrating.
ReplyDeleteChristi Himmelfahrt
DeleteThat's a very nautical looking bear!
ReplyDeleteI did not know of this island. The bear looks a cute ambassador.
ReplyDeleteThese bears look to me like they are reaching out for a hug.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! Nice to have a holiday to break up the week.
