Friend Encounters is a weekly series featuring friends meeting celebrities.
My sister Nancy was recently on a cruise to Alaska. I didn't even know Princess Cruises had a mascot, but Nancy found him.
Stanley the Bear was named after Stanley B. McDonald, the cruise line's founder. Stanley debuted in 2017. He appears for photo ops, story hours for kids and more. He wears custom clothing themed to each destination and of course, that apparel is available to purchase. Stanley bears are also available to buy, with a portion of the sales going to Princess Animal Welfare Sponsor.
The question arises though, did Nancy take the cruise just to get this picture. She knows I have an unhealthy fascination with mascots. This is one I would never meet. Nancy is always willing to help the cause.
Okay, she probably took the cruise for other reasons, like a vacation. Still, the fact that she got this picture for me means a lot.
Both my sisters are awesome. I am a lucky brother.
