The Big Adventure Continues: Charles and Chance Visit Cape Spear

Hi. I'm Charles the Bear Cub. You know me. I live on Sparkle Road with my buddy, Grandpa James. He's really old. He was the second Canadian to get off Noah's Ark, you know.

Oh. Wait! Chance lives with us, too. He's a newborn cubby someone left in a basket on our doorstep. He's a wee little thing. He's so newborn he doesn't have any teeth! He just drinks chocolate owls' milk from his bottle.  I look after Chance, too. He's a handful!

Guess where we are! We're at Cape Spear in Newfoundland. Our cousin Frankie is with us, too! Cape Spear is where Canada starts. Oh, wait! It's the start of North America, too. There is a lighthouse at Cape Spear. I know what a lighthouse is for. It shines a bright light at night so ship captains know they're sailing close to the land and not to come too close or the ship will sink.

Sometimes icebergs float by Cape Spear. Icebergs are mountains made out of ice. I'm not sure where they come from but I think they come from Away. I would like to ride on an iceberg, wouldn't you? Sometimes there are whales to watch, too. Whales are really big. Whales are our friends, you know.


 Oh. Wait! Did you hear that? Grandpa James is hollering, "Where are my handsome bear cubs? Where are my Sons of Windsor? Where are my Princes of Ontario? That's me! Charles! That's Chance! We're handsome bear cubs. We're Sons of Windsor and Princes of Ontario! We gotta go find Grandpa James so we can get our ears tickled and our noses kissed.

 This is me, Charles the Bear Cub saying, "Be good citizens. Be kind to friends and neighbours. Then you can eat Smarties and drink root beer. Oh! Wait! Come over to our house! We can go see Cape Spear together! Okay! Over and out!"
