Most people are surprised to meet a traveling bear. At least that is what they usually say when I introduce myself. Humans may have very large brains, but there are still many things they don't know. However almost all of them are adaptable, and once they get used to the idea of a story telling bear, they are quite interested in hearing about my adventures. Unfortunately, I have a very quiet voice when I am speaking people language. When I speak Bear language, I am much louder, but not many people understand Bear. To make matters worse, my Bear voice frightens the small children, and even some of the large adults. Because it takes quite an effort for me to say people words clearly enough to be understood, the effort tires me out rather quickly.
It was my traveling companion who first suggested writing about my adventures, and placing the stories on the Internet. I admit that I was skeptical at first. Bears actually do know about the Internet, but they really don't use it all that often. After all, there aren't many web sites that tell you where to catch the best fish and find wild berries - though I wouldn't be surprised if someone now shows me where I can find this important bear information. Lately I've been finding all sorts of fascinating information on the Internet, including, as it turns out, stories about other traveling bears. But more about that later.
Eventually I agreed to try
writing about my adventures, but I ran into a problem almost immediately.
I couldn't think of a name for my website. Bears are rather direct, and
my first suggestion was to simply call it "My Four and a Half Year Journey

I mentioned earlier that I'd discovered other traveling bears. It turns out there are other traveling bears, and even another traveling Bernard Bear. What are the chances of that? I've enjoyed reading about these other adventures, and thought you might enjoy it to. Here are some of my favorite links to other bear web sites.
