\u2018Let\u2019s go to Devon,\u2019 Mum said. \u2018There\u2019s better weather.\u2019 Now, I don\u2019t know where she was comparing it with, but if this is better I hate to think what she would think was worse. On the way down here we saw so much rain! It meant the traffic was bad and we spent ages in the car, but I will concede it got a lot better once we arrived. There are cows in the field opposite where we\u2019re staying. Really big ones with very impressive horns. Mum says I can\u2019t go to play with them, which seems mean. There\u2019s a lovely Retriever in the main house who we\u2019ve met and like and then there\u2019s a Labradoodle next door who isn\u2019t so keen to meet me, which is a shame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m told we can walk out onto Dartmoor by going through three fields and without going on any roads but Mum says we have to wait until later. It\u2019s very exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The place we\u2019re staying left welcome biscuits for us, but Mum is stopping us from eating them all at once. I think that\u2019s mean, she\u2019s started on the chocolates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today is a quiet day not doing too much. Mum says she\u2019s tired so we can have a nice walk and plenty of fresh air but she\u2019d rather not drive anywhere. Really we want to save our energy for our beach party tomorrow. It\u2019s so exciting to be seeing the others. Mum says she wishes Alfie and Aristotle could be here too. I hope they aren\u2019t missing us too much. At least them not being here means we don\u2019t have to get up at five every morning and Mum says she really does appreciate that as it can get a bit much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m off to do some exploring and see the cows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have fun<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
