Hero


I was sitting on the beach, watching the sunset. When a wet nose started sniffing my arm, it was a dog, I think a cross between a doberman and some smaller dog, but I`m not sure, any ways, it was really nice and carismatic, and it sat with me until Andy and Dawn got back from whereever they were,when I went to go to them, the dog followed me, Dawn said it was funny to see a dog following me, but I can`t imagine why, because all the dogs here are so nice, and I`ve already made friends with a few.
Anyways. Blame Andy for the name, I know it seems like something I would name him, but I think I`ve gotten Andy obsessed with Heroes. HA.
So as we walked along this beach, Hero follwed us, occasionally jumping on Dawn or me (he didn`t seem to notice Andy at all) He followed us half way down the beach until we decided to get him some tuna, so we got him some, then left, as much as bringing Hero back home with us would make both us and Hero so happy (I know it`s weird, the dogs seem to have a great life here, there are places where people feed all the stray dogs, and all the dogs have eachother for company, but one woman who fed the dogs said that they all long for a stedy home, and the way Hero was acting, I beleave that.)

But I know that there is almost no way to travel with a dog, but I also know if I were traviling by myself I would find a way to bring around three dogs home.



So anything ELSE that happened besides Hero?
Got dragged under a few waves, climbed over a few rocks, hiked down a few beaches, same old.

We did rent a boggy bord, it was great, we swam out on it(we all took turns, we didn`t do it all together.) then a huge wave pushed us in.
A lot of times I got dragged under,(it`s the best when you put the nose on the bord under and you do a set of tworls, that sound scary, but actually just feel like you`re doing gymnastics or something) that was my second favorite to getting pushed all the way to shore, and feeling like a beeched whale.

Of course, when we were watching the sunset later, we realized that booggy bords are actually supposed to be used like surf bords, but without standing up. I suppose that was why everyone was watching us funny.

But hey, we`re creating a new kind of surfing, one for the people that don`t like surfing.

We also went to a different beach today, I don`t know the name and I seriously doubt that I ever will. But I do know it started with a Z and that the waves were to deadly to swim in, and I also know that people were swiming there anyways.

We hiked from there to a different beach, one that we could swim in.
As usual, we almost ended up horribly lost.
Ah, good times.
Oh, and just for his credit, it was Andy who made sure that we didn`t end up horribly lost.
OH And Dawn reminded me to say that we saw whales, we walked up to a meditation place(it was very high up and gave out a very nice vibe, it was just an open hill, but I really liked it), and when we looked out over the fence to keep people from falling off into the ocean and rocks, we saw whales coming up for air, way out in the middle of the ocean, they were far away, but we still saw them, thats how huge they were.

I think they were probably Blue whales.
