Wally & Wanda Begin To Travel – Part 2

The NBSRT Wellness team has put Wanda & Wally Wellness Bears into action.  They have begun to travel with our members as they exercise their travel legs.  The goal is to see where our Wellness Bears have travelled from Summer to Spring 2022-23.

Wally’s Bermuda Cruise

Wally is just back from a visit to New York City and a Bermuda cruise, and he’s saying “You just have to see my pics”. Take a look and be sure to tell him what you think of his photos in the COMMENT box below.

Wally’s Halifax Trip

Wally toured downtown Halifax and had lunch at the “Narrows Public House”. The pub sounds like it’s worth a visit – see the descriptive comment below.

Wally Travels To British Columbia

Here are a few photos from Wally’s trip to British Columbia. Be sure to read his comments at the bottom:

My beary interesting journey from Charters Settlement, NB, to Kelowna, BC, ( September 16th – 30th, 2022) with Betty Smith was quite an adventure! My first flight was very interesting! I enjoyed having my picture taken in the Fredericton airport and checking the boarding passes! I wasn’t hungry on the plane so I passed on the snack! I could see all kinds of planes before we took off for Toronto, Ontario. That was a busy spot for sure and we had to run to catch the connecting flight to Calgary! Finally another plane took us to Kelowna! Judy Wilks was waiting for us…oops! No luggage! Thankfully no worries for me! The bed felt sooooo good! I had lots of interesting adventures almost every day!! ! The quails were interesting creatures… didn’t try the beverages but heard they were tasty!! The Farmer’s Market was a busy place…and in the Mall nearby there was an ice cream stand…their cones matched my colour (almost)! On other walks, my picture was taken taken in nearby parks “ Warning” about bears in this area!! Imagine that!! I enjoyed helping the the girls get their laundry done! The clothes pins were a challenge for sure! I liked visiting the many parks and waterfalls! I noticed an interesting licence plate too! Judy was putting out some seasonal decorations so I couldn’t resist posing with them! All too soon I was back on the plane heading for “ home”! A gal on the plane wanted a picture of me with her “ travel buddy”…Now to rest up for my next journey! Signed – Wally

    Wally got packed and was ready to go on his latest adventure! Off to New York City, once there he took in a show and jumped on board for a fantastic cruise to Bermuda. There was lots to do and lots to see! Check out my amazing photos! What a trip and most important, Wally & Jocelyne made it home safely. Ready for another adventure.

    Wally was recently in Halifax for the weekend. Wally wants to note that he visited a great new restaurant called ‘The Narrows’. Check it out if you are travelling in that area. You will be pleasantly surprised by the character of the building, the unique rooms to share a great meal and converse with family and friends.
