And why is Wilbert in the Picture?


Cozy Travel Companion
Is it silly to have a cozy travel companion? Beach Rose for example is entertaining the idea, but feels it's a little childish and not exactly "age-appropriate". And then there is Keith, a young man who has sent his doll Wilbert around the world with all kinds of people to places that he himself might never see. He feels if Wilbert was on Martha's Vineyard and in Rio de Janeiro then a small part of him was there too. Silly or not, I think Wilbert is adorable!
You can check out all of Wilbert's travels @ Cruising Wilbert.

    That is so sweet of his friends to do that for him and I love the name. I just would feel self conscious taking pics of a toy when tourists and locals were looking at me.

    I love the idea and I think that there is no such thing as being too childlike. Wilber is adorable, I agree!

    Wilbert is very lucky to get to travel around the world! I have a online friend who did something similar a few years ago. I think it was a mouse or a bear though. Lovely photos. Thanks for sharing.

    Wilbur doesn't need a passport, nor luggage.

    Whatever you hold precious cannot be silly. Only in the eyes of others, whose importance shouldn't matter.

    I think this is such a fun idea - and one that children can never get enough of - so why not adults!!!
