The Adventures of Miss Luna

Continuing on from the last post, this is the story of the rest of what happened on the day our beach looked terrible! The last post was mostly from the ocean side of our beach (the side that has waves) but there is also a calm side of the beach which is kind of where a river runs out of the land – apparently it’s called an estuary.

Anyway, this is what the calm side usually looks like (make sure you click for a larger version!). This was taken a few months ago…

And this is what it looked like today! See how muddy it is? This is from all the dirt washing down the river and out to sea. Not very nice!

Anyway since the sun was out and it was pretty hot, we decided we wanted to go for a swim anyway. It was nice and cool! Zephyr’s Dad threw in a big stick for us all to go and fetch…

We let Zephyr get it cos it was pretty big!

Our people decided that stick was too big for us, so they threw in this one for us instead! Ok the other was was definitely too wide.. but this one was waaay too long. Me and Luna had a go at it anyway. You’d think that with all the sticks lying around they’d be able to pick one for us the right size? I think they enjoyed watching us struggle! Mean!

FINALLY Zephyr’s Mum threw in a proper stick for us to fetch. Just the right size!

After we fetched it out, Zephyr ran up and down the little beach with it with me and Luna in hot pursuit! The people had to get out of the way pretty quickly!

I heard someone coming, so I climbed back up the bank to have a look…

Ooooh! A new friend! A new GREAT DANE friend!!

We found out her name is Harley, and she’s about the same age as me! She’s a BIG Dane and very fun to play with…

Not to be left out, Luna and Zephyr did some chasing in the dunes too…

Then I stalked Luna (my favourite thing to do!)…

I was so happy to see blue sky again and feel the sunshine. It’s been rainy for far too long! I don’t much like what happened to our beautiful beach but it’s still a super fun place to be, even when the water is brown and there is stuff lying around everywhere!

The best thing of all isn’t the beach though, it’s about having good friends to run, play, chase and have fun with – like my best buddy Zephyr!

We arrived at our beach this morning after LOTS and lots of rain (so we were pretty hyper) only to find it like this!! There was STUFF all over the beach and the water was BROWN! It was so weird, Mum went back to the car to get her camera…

It was still raining up the other end of the beach, but blue sky was just starting to show at our end.

Dad and us had walked down the beach a bit, but when we saw Mum after getting her camera, we had to run over and say hello to her again!! Hehe Luna looks funny when she runs – look at those ears!

Oh waitup, I do too. Whoah I even have the tongue swingin in this one.

We spotted Zephyr! After him!

Got him! Me and Luna teamed up on him, girl power style!

It was so weird, the surf was brown from all the mud that washed down the river. And it smelled funny. Actually it smelt quite good, but I’ve been told I have a different opinion of what smells good to humans so it probably wouldn’t smell good to you!

Logs on the beach are fun! Me and Dad did some jumping…

Lots of weird, random stuff had washed up on the beach, probably from people’s backyards who live on the river!

Check this out! It was an entire park bench!!

Dad put it upright and he and Luna tested it out. Then Luna got distracted and tried to eat Dad’s sunnies. Youngsters these days… no concentration on the task at hand!

We decided that the park bench, despite having being washed down a river, out to sea, then up on a beach at high tide, was fine. So we all sat on it. Or tried to. Only Dad and Zephyr’s Dad fitted though,but us dogs tried anyway!

Luna and I found something good in a pile of sticks and branches. It smelled soooo good. But Mum and Dad made us come away from it! I think it was something that had died in the flood.

Amidst all the excitement, Zephyr had run off and was no where to be found! I think he must have found something that he didn’t want to share.

Can’t hide from me for long! I found him pretty easy. Isn’t he a handsome devil?
We have more photos from this day but Mum is going to do another post with them soon. We hope you like our new blog! Make sure you remember where it is, and come back soon!

Love Kaya and Luna xxxooo
