After a great run on the beach, me and mum and dad were going to the car! Today we visited Diksmuide! And another place too: called Vladslo. Think I’ll have to tell you a bit of history… So today I’m in the guide-business! hahaha! 🙂

Today’s visits weren’t that funny, really. Because we visited places which were very important in the Big War. The Big War in Belgium (and other parts of Europe), from 1914 till 1918. That’s hundred years ago and people do remember these years nowadays. 
A little part of Belgium never was occupied because it was flooded, on purpose. But soldiers and people had a terrible life all that time. Thousands of soldiers of all nationalities died in that war. 😦 War is always a shame, so people did build buildings to remember us of that.

Pppfff, I could not enter the museum and the building, so me and mum we walked around and made pics while dad and the other mum and dad were visiting. (Mum visited before, you know!) We enjoyed our walk though! 🙂

In the afternoon we visited a cemetary: a very special one. With more than 25.000 German soldiers burried there. That made us feel a bit sad. 😦
There is a lot more to visit in this area, but we can’t do all in one day, dad says.

No more war! Oh yes, we do agree about that, all of us! Let’s hope for peace everywhere in the world… but mum says we aren’t that far yet! 😦 Will that happen soon, mum?

Sometimes, my mum, she really could be in a fairytale! Out of the blue, other animals appear in the house.
Mum goes to this special shop and she comes home with very long, very long – really hundreds of meters of  wire! The wire seems to be a ball, but I can’t play with it, oh no! Mum also has an iron little thing with a hook! She sits on the couch for long times and then… “hocus pocus paks”, there it is! ❤

One day, no monkey in the house, a week later, there it is! Same thing with the polar bear! And the cow who livesin France now! And then came the snowman, in the middle of summer! Go figure!

Okay for the monkey and the bear and even the cow (she left, that’s okay!)… but since yesterday, there is an elephant living in our apartment! My dogness, what an idea! And I even can not play with the beast! Too dangerous, mum says! Hahahahaha! For the elephant, she says! 😉

Fototoot! Hey, mum, normally I am your model! 😉

The elephant on my house???

Fototoot of the elephant? I must see that!

Today, I did not try something naughty, I was thinking about it, but I got no opportunities… 😦
But then mum got this box, completely in cardboard and without metal staples! She examined it thoroughly… when she does so, I know that maybe, I can have fun with it!

YES! I got it! I tore it all apart to help mum! But this one was a very strong one, I had a lot of work! Almost 10 minutes! That’s a very long time for this skilled cardboard-business-lady! Mum did film quite a bit of it. I think that is boring, but she said that maybe some friends will like it. 😉

And for the friends who are worried: I do not eat the cardboard. I learned to spit it out: just look carefully, you’ll see! 😉 It’s not always easy, it sticks sometimes, but I spit it out! 😉

Yes, I get it!

Difficult one!

Mum calls this holidays! She was working all morning! Cleaning windows in every room of the apartment. All doors were open to have some air passing through… mums get the picture, this lady thinks! 🙂

So wil my doggie-friends! Time to try something not allowed! 😉 Hahaha! Door of the bedroom is open. That happens more… I can’t go in, I know, unless mum lets me to when she is ironing… I do a few steps. No reaction! Mum is cleaning. Few more steps and hop! ❤
…
Damnit! Caught! 😦
Mum is not proud at all! 😦

Well, you win one, you lose one… 😉

As if mum does not have enough fototoots of me… 😉 This morning, she started it again! Fototoot she said! I know the procedure! As quicker as I obey, the faster I get my treats. So this morning I decided to coöperate from the beginning. Even with a very big smile! See pics. Okay I got my treat!

More? Okay. Yes, I will lie down. Mum said, I acted as a real proud lady. Then she called me to get the treat, I came to get it. And only then she saw why I was so alert and proud! After her back, at only a few meters, so real close, a big Rottweiler passed with his dad! Yes, I stayed down without mum knowing that and  warning all the time… Mum was so proud of me afterwards, ❤ I did not get up to say hello to the new friend! 😉 🙂
Bodylanguage in the pics is awesome, mum says. Don’t know what that means, but she smiles, so it must be good! 😉

Good girl, Kita!

This afternoon, we went in town, mum fototooted again! She says the name on the building could be my nickname: zeezot = sea-fool = fou de mer! My nickname??? Hers, yes!

Smiling! I’m in the mood for a toot!

Okay, like this, show my long legs?

Bird up there!

Blinking? Does not work today!

Keep smiling!

Part two! I see the Rottweiler, mum does not!

Me? Zeezot?

Think you are the sea-fool!

Yesterday morning, we went to the huge dogpark! Big bad surprise! We could not enter! The fences were still there… and I could not believe my eyes! I looked at mum and she had the same stunned face… My dogness, I could cry… 😦

Remember I told you about all the changes in the dogpark for this big summernoise?

Summerfestival, Kita, summerfestival.

Okay, for this big summerthing with 40.000 humans to come… 😉 Well these 40.000 humans left one messy dirt. Another dad told that the night before the men already cleaned with vacuum cleaners as big as houses. And now the special men came to walk all over the place and pick up all the little durt… meter by meter! (inch per inch!!) My poor huge dogpark! My dogness… This made me a bit ill, I did not eat my breakfast when I got home, neither did mum. 😦

Seagulls and crows were all over the place, eating from this unhealthy garbage! Flying away when the big vacuumcleaners arrived! Mum said something about birds and Hitchcock. Did not understand but I did not ask for more bad news, had to look around too much! 😦

Mum says she understands humans want to amuse themselves, that’s okay! Humans like music, that’s okay too. Humans want to listen to that music together with about 40.000 other humans and move a little. That’s okay. Humans want to sleep between the two days of listening and moving on the same place in little houses. That’s okay too. It’s only two days now and one in september. That’s okay… They have to find a place somewhere, big enough, we try to understand that too… I do not understand the last part: why our huge dogpark near a protected nature area? Why mowing all the plants and grass and beautiful flowers? We do disagree a bit on that point, me and my mum: she tries to understand and I do not want to understand. 😦

But me and mum do NOT understand all this garbage around the place! You could not see the grass anymore, and even after vacuuming it was very dirty! Why on earth these music-moving-humans throw away everything on the ground? There were hundreds of bins, another dad said! This aire-lady says that all this is not respectful towards all the animals living next door and normally in the huge park, and these music-moving humans even have less respect for other humans who have to clean up after them…
My dogness, I was so stunned and so sad when we went home! 😦

PS Pics of before and after the summerthing… judge for yourself!

Holidays, she calls it! My mum’s holidays are hard working-days for me! I can tell you that! But as mum always says: work is fun too! I like our new business! I really do!
These days we are in the macro-business, me and mum and the red blinking thing.

Now we have finally time to get this figured out, you know! We started with the beach mistery! Mum took such a mistery home! And then we macro-fototooted it. I had to keep an eye on it, you see, I was on guard-duty and of assistence-duty. Maybe someone will see now what it is and tell us… You never know… 🙂

Next we macro-fototooted my hair and curls and paws and nose and…! That was fun, I moved on the wrong moments of course when red thing was correctly ready and I did not move on the wrong moments, hahahaha, when red thing was not ready. I did my very best!! 😉

Finally we tried the flowers. Several times I touched my mum’s arm when she was macro-fototooting! Guard-duty, remember? 🙂 😉

We ended up with a big business: 24 pics of this special toot! Go figure! We aren’t experts yet, far from, mum says. But I think that the macros of me – or parts of me! – are quite successful! 🙂 😉 Hahahaha!

PS Click on the pics, or you do not see the macra-fototooting! That would be a pity, I tell you!!! 🙂

Macro-toot of my smile?

Macro-toot of my log legs? No?

Yes, I keep an eye on it!

Before washing it

The washed mystery!

My hair!

Mum was very pissed at me, she was, but only for a while! Then she laughed! Why?

In the middle of the beach, I was nicely on the leash, with lots of humans and human pups around, I started barking. Mum yelled silently I had to stop it. I barked again and started pulling on the leash. To get mum in a bad mood that’s the best thing to do… I know that! Pulling and barking, a lady! Go figure! 😦
Aha! Then we heard another bark, just one, but that was enough to get mum’s attention. She said, sibilant, you see what you get? Others follow your bad example! And that I had to stop pulling! And only then she saw it too! Yes, mum, there is Jara! You see it too? Finally?! 🙂

Jara Van ’t Asbroek is my cousin, you know. We know each other because we see each other sometimes at the seaside, by chance! Today we played! The business-world is in the genes of our family! Running-business, water-business, ball-business. Jara is nice, she brings the ball back to her dad. I think that is a rather stupid game. Anyway we had lots of fun!

And mum… listen! When is my hairdresser’s appointment? It is time, did you see the nice coiffure of my cousin? You see what I mean? 😉 Need a haircut, really! After this heat, I’m done with this curls! 😉 You too, mum? Too much sand in them? 🙂 We agree, my mum and me! Yeeeey! ❤  Shouldn’t have said so when I was barking and pulling! 😉

PS Film is in the end! 🙂
