Badly Needed Break | Weekend Snapshot #15
My family and I had a nice and relaxing weekend which we spent together with friends and their dog. We stayed in a hotel near the North Sea, the ZeeuwseStromen that is a dog-friendly-hotel , which was actually the main factor for choosing this hotel, because we also wanted Charlie to enjoy a weekend break.
We all had a good time, especially Charlie…I enjoyed capturing him in action and I also loved that smile on his face

“Hey mom, watch me”

“Are you ready for me?”

“I’m almost there!”

“Here I come!”

w/ his big buddy slash personal bodyguard

our friends’ dog loves the water..here he was calling out to his bosses to join him in that cold water

“Dive in the North Sea with the gray seal”

unfortunately the sand bank where the seals were resting was too far for my lens to reach (you may click the image for a larger view)

So cute!!! I so want a dog too, maybe when Mina’s older. Pero I have to convince Woody. Ayaw nya talaga. I’ll show him Charlie’s sexy baywatch poses, baka magbago and isip nya. :)
