I kind of thought I'd just
sit here on my swing

and have some relaxation time.

Really?

Just sit around all day?

Well, yeah.
It's just one of those days.

Boring.

I can't imagine anything

The attic.

I just love it up here.

It's one of my favorite
places in the Big Blue House.

Wanna know why?

Because there's so much
neat stuff up here.

Like this.

This is my old yearbook from
when I went to Hazelnut High.

Wow! This brings back memories.

You know, I was voted
most likely to cha-cha-cha.

Yeah. The attic is just full
of so many good memories.

It's also where I come up
to talk to my old friend, Luna,

and tell her about my day.

C'mon. Let's go find her.

Uh! There she is!

-Hello, Luna!
-Hello, Bear!

I was just admiring the way
the stars are shining

in the sky this evening.

Yeah.

They are shining
beautifully tonight Luna.

Tell me, Bear. How was your day
in the Big Blue House?

Oh, it was great.

We danced and danced and danced.

The whole day!

That's a lot of dancing!

Well, Treelo just couldn't stop

dancing today
and we all jumped in.

Oh, that Treelo loves to dance.

Yeah!

And Grandma Flutter came for
a visit and danced with us, too!

I'll bet I know
what dance you did.

The Mambo!

That's right, Luna.

Hey, I was wondering.

Do you dance?

Oh, of course, Bear.

Why, I rise and fall,
and turn about the earth.

It's a dance I've been doing
for a long, long time.

Wow. You know, that's a dance
we all love to watch.

Why, thank you, Bear.

Hey, Luna, would you sing

the "Goodbye Song"
with me, before you go?

I would love to, Bear.

♪ Hey, this was really fun ♪

♪ We hope you liked it too ♪

♪ Seems like we've just begun ♪

♪ When suddenly we're through ♪

♪ Goodbye,
goodbye, good friends, goodbye ♪

♪ 'Cause now it's time to go ♪

♪ But, hey, I say,
Well, that's OK ♪

♪ 'Cause we'll see you,
Very soon, I know ♪

Just like today ♪

and the Big Blue House ♪

♪ We'll be waiting for you
to come and play ♪

♪ To come and play,
to come and play ♪

Bye now.

Well, thanks for visiting
the Big Blue House.

Bye!

Oh, by the way,

in case you're ever in the mood
to do some dancing,

the Big Blue House
is the place to be.

Hey! Dancing!

Hey, Treelo.

Bear dance some more?

Well, Treelo,
actually it's bedtime now.

Hey, did someone say dancing?

I think I could dance
a little more.

Guys, it's time for bed

Hey, guys!

We thought we heard the pitter
patter of dancing feet.

Hey, Bear.
I thought you were done dancing.

Well, I thought so too but,

Oh well, looks like we have
some more dancing to do.

Tell you what, guys.

What if we all go
dance off to bed?

-Okay.
-Yaaaaaay!

-Sounds great, Bear.
-See you soon!
