We are Here!

I was such a good boy in the backseat during the really loooong car ride (Mommy kept telling me!). I only barked a few times at other dogs driving by and I patiently waited while Mommy and Daddy bought me chicken nuggets at the drive-throughs.

I love chicken nuggets.

I wasn't even too upset when Chick Fil-A FORGOT my chicken nuggets. 

Finally, today, we pulled into a parking lot and took the suitcases, my cuddle bed, and lots of other things out of the car. 

Hmmm. This place looks familiar. 

Sniff, sniff, I think I smell salt water. Are we...

back at the beach...???

at Panama City Beach?!? 

I pull Mommy and Daddy up the elevator, and after they open the door, I run around to see where we are. Mommy opens a screen door to a balcony - and then I see it - WE ARE AT THE BEACH!

Mommy and Daddy don't pay much attention to me for the next few hours, but I watch them carefully to make sure they unpack my treats and toys. I am really excited when Daddy shows up with lots of bags that have cheese and meat in them. 

After everything is put away, I see Daddy grab my leash and Mommy put on her sunglasses. We are going on a walk! 

I love going for a walk, 

and I love it even more when both Mommy and Daddy take me together, 

and I am ecstatic when all of us are together WALKING ON THE BEACH!

Even though I am tired when we get back, I make sure Mommy and Daddy know it is time to start making dinner. In addition to being their meal reminder, I am also an excellent sous-chef. I stand right by Mommy's side as she starts taking a few things out to cook.

Mommy, Daddy, and I sit on the balcony for a little bit before Daddy leaves with the meat mommy had prepared on a plate. Uh, oh, where is Daddy taking the meat? I look at Mommy, but she goes back to working in the kitchen, so that is a good sign.

When Daddy comes back - I start jumping up and down - I smell burgers! I sit like a really good boy between them so they don't forget to give me some.

After dinner, I curl up in my cuddle bed on the balcony, while Mommy and Daddy sit with me, and fall asleep listening to the waves and dreaming of the beach and burgers.
