It was an \u2018early\u2019 walk yesterday, but it just wasn\u2019t early enough. We took dad to show him where my sister took me the other day. We start from my usual walking place that Mum really loves and then instead of going up to see the view on my mountain we go up through the forests to St Jost. From there you can see lots of mountain peaks. Or more to the point, when we went with my sister we could see lots of mountain peaks. When we took Dad, there I was pointing my paw saying \u2018The Eiger is over there,\u2019 but all you could see was a misty distance hiding the mountains. He wouldn\u2019t believe it had been clearer when we\u2019d been and said we were making it up. He says it was like when we went to see the Matterhorn and he didn\u2019t see it. We saw it on my early morning walk, but he didn\u2019t believe that either. It serves him right for staying in bed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In recovery<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_6246.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_6246-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14940\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_6246-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_6246.jpg 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Anyway, by the time we\u2019d walked down the mountain back to our house Shadow needed quite a long time to recover. Mum had made us stop for lots and lots of drinks along the way. Shadow was fed up as she said she needed to pee more as a result. She wasn\u2019t too thrilled at Mum pouring water over her back too. Overall it was really good, but next time we\u2019d like it to be a little cooler. Mum and Dad went out in the afternoon without us as it was so very warm. We didn\u2019t really mind, the came back in time for our tea which was my main concern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">All packed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we\u2019re all packed and ready to go. It\u2019s going to be another hot day but with air conditioning we should be fine. Mum will only stop under the service station canopies, so she\u2019s back to only putting 20 litres of fuel in at a time. I\u2019ve checked that she has remembered our Bonio\u2019s so all is well. We\u2019re all just really sad to say goodbye to Dad. It will only be three weeks until we see him, but we\u2019d rather not have to say goodbye at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book as well as our other books are available&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=rosemary%20j%20kind\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 2018 Rosemary J.
