We just returned from a long walk, M and I and W. W is M’s mother. She likes walking as much as M and I, so sometimes we go together! That’s nice. I like her, she gives me cookies.

We walked on the beach and through the dunes. It was sunny and quiet, we almost had a private beach!

The beach is great for running and chasing birds. Which I did, of course. After some hours we went into the dunes, rabbit country!

But the rabbits were skinny, so I did not catch them. Besides I wanted to save my energy. When we go for a walk and M has her hiking gear with her (a big lumpy thing on her back with loads of stuff in it, like my food and my bed) one never knows when one will return home. I was right in saving my energy: this particular walk turned out to be a two day walk.

On the second day we spotted some very interesting wildlife:

I did want to chase that one, but M stopped me. Not fair! When we walked on I used my sharp eyes and nose even more than usual to spot these big juicy animals. But alas, they were all hiding from me. They must be very clever.

For the last stage of our long walk we walked on the beach again.

It was a nice walk. Now I will sleep for half a day and then we can go again!
