Mum has a special camera that she can take under the water, how fun! She took some video of me as well as some photos. I don’t actually put my head under the water (except when I’m dunking for semi-floating sticks, oh, and chasing coconuts) so I never really see what goes on under there. It’s actually pretty cool!
I don’t really know how I swim, I just kinda run under the water and somehow I get where I want to go.
The only problem is, when I have rather big claws. Mum keeps them trimmed so they’re not sharp, but they are still pretty big!
If someone gets in the way of them when I’m swimming, sometimes I kinda accidentally, well, ‘get’ them. And this is what happens. This is my friend Brielle. Well, she’s actually Mum’s friend, but I like her so much I call her my friend too! I’m sowwy Brielle…..
My boyfriend Lupe was at the beach too. He doesn’t really like swimming just yet, but we’re trying to convince him it’s fun!
I like swimming with my Mum. It makes me happy. Our friend Brielle took these awesome photos of us!
Sometimes underwater I cheat and put my back legs on the ground.
Then Mum grabs my front legs and I can stand just like a person!
A lot of the time I just kinda float around by myself though. It helps having an amazing floating bum.
When I finally got out of the water, after neglecting my boyfriend Lupe (sorry Lupe! I just really love swimming!) we had time for a quick dig around in the sand together.
You can always tell how much fun digging is, by how much sand you get on your face. Lupe had a lot of fun, obviously. I still think he’s handsome though!
