A cool dip in the river

It seems like ages ago now, but when mum and dad took me on our recent trip to Wales, the weather was good....very good.  In fact I could easily say that this particular day it was HOT

When dad saw a place to stop by the river

I was so happy

 although there were dark clouds, it was still HOT
- do you get the picture, it was HOT -
but then I am wearing a fur coat, so what can they expect but me panting a lot in the car

there wasn't a lot of shade, but luckily there was a convenient road bridge
= shade

 

LOVELY SWIM AND I COOLED OFF

Mum was looking through some old photos

...and came across this one.  We were on a grand walk next to a river when I spotted a fisherman STANDING IN THE RIVER!!!  - Yes, and there I was thinking 'twas only myself who dipped my paws.   Still, it was paws up to this intrepid fisherman, who seemed to be knee high - wonder if he caught anything?

I do like a good drink....

I find rivers very useful....and refreshing...

Fingle Glen

I had a great day out recently ...mum and dad took me to Fingle Bridge.  It's near Drewsteington part of

Dartmoor National Park


the river runs through this picturesque valley - here I am getting a drink from the river

and this is where mum and dad got a drink....

we also took a walk along the river

this is looking down on it from the footpath -

which then works its way down to the river

there was a fisherman Standing In the River (that looked such fun)!

"I wonder if he caught anything?" - he didn't ask for my help....

and further along the river made a lot of noise as it spilled over the rocks

- where another hound came along to see me, but soon ran off
(look out for that towards the end of the video)

although I was more concerned about mum....

but before long we had to wind our way back

and head for home -
I had a brilliant day out though
