Hotel Staff Sends Photo Updates To Boy Who Left His Teddy Bear Behind

January 9, 2019

Anna Pickard was on vacation in Hawaii and it wasn't until she returned home that she realized her son had left his favorite teddy bear at the resort.

So she emailed the Grand Hyatt Kauai hoping that someone had found it.

She told the incredible story in a series of tweets on Twitter.

"Having a crappy Monday? I was too.

Not only is it raining and I was back at work, but we realised last night that Doozer had left his beloved teddy bear at the hotel we stayed at, and that when we had to admit it, he was going to go from being worried (last night) to most upset.

I had emailed the hotel last night. Is there a white bear there, I asked? Very friendly, answers to Sutro? He has a new friend, a seal, that he had made during the trip. They'd probably be together if they could be found. We weren't hopeful tho. Big hotel.

They emailed back. Not only had they found Sutro safe and would be posting him back, but they sent updates so Doozer could see what he'd been doing on his extended vacation. Apparently having first visiting the laundry, he's been at the Spa."

"Then they took a walk. Met the gardeners. And went to the pool. They rented a cabana (and now I'm going to have to explain why I kept telling Doozer we couldn't afford a cabana, but… his bear can?)"

"And then, this is my favourite thing, THEY CHECKED OUT OF THE HOTEL."

"SO thank you to Julien at @GrandHyattKauai, and his colleagues who are, apparently, just all-round lovely people who legit made me (and several dozen colleagues) cry today. Now I'm going to go and print these out and drip feed them to Doozer until Sutro lands."

If I ever visit Hawaii, I'll be staying at the Grand Hyatt Kauai.
