Put a bear in Strasbourg

Was this The Year of the Bear in Strasbourg?

The blue bear at night was asparkle plenty

But the pure white polar bear was the bear of choice in my view.

There's a fondness here for the fuzzy wuzzy bear

Although this bear was quite realistic. Perhaps a little too realistic. And what's with the wings? A tad worrying.

Simply adorable with a charming expression.

By the way my bear was back in the room while I was out browsing bears in case you were wondering.

A number of penguins were on display

Of course Polar bears are in charge, making sure no one sings an off key.

Some brown bears were in attendance.

At the print shop my resident guru suggested my Paris map bear looked like a pig! Honestly, sometimes he is way off and this was one of them. Wasn't he?

I was very tempted by the sitting duck going for a mere 2,50€. Shoulda, coulda, woulda.

I didn't taste a stork's egg either. They're chocolate in case you're concerned.
Not so surprising that darling snowy Miffy showed up in Strasbourg.
