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! 🙂

This morning, very early at the beach… Waterbusiness on his best! 😉
And friends to share it with… wich aire-lady wants more? Not this one! 😉 ❤

These days mum really has too much work. It is the end of something like a year in her library. Students are gone though, but she is still there! She says it wil be better next week: holidays! I understand that word! 😉

But last sunday we were in the old town, strolling around with Dutch visitors my mum knows… They know a lot about libraries! 🙂

Anyway, we were strolling around and dad and the other mum and dad (yes, I know their doggies, already met them!) were visiting Sint Paulus Church. Doggies not allowed, even an aire-lady understands that. So me and my mum we waited patiently outside, in the shadow! And my dogness!
What did I see? Who did I met? An airedale sir! Benjamin! Ben for the friends! He lives next door to the church! Go figure!! 😉

Friendship at first sight, mum said. We were kissing a lot, he even told me secrets! Lots of pics! 😉 ❤

The huge dogpark was full new fences, remember? Showed you yesterday! They even made lots of new paths with iron! They were digging away one of our hills! Go figure! Disaster is not small!

However, one of the hills is stil intact. 🙂 The one with the nice hole to dig in! So I did. And I did! And I digged more! Mum took the new red blinking thing again, we were on our way home, you know. She was filming and I was digging! 🙂 ❤

And then? Almost big accident: some sand arrived on the red blinking thing. I don’t know how that happened, really, I don’t know. But mum was not pleased at all and… Mum, listen, I did not do it, I was in the hole just and came out! I did not throw the sand, how could I??!

Anyway, I had to stop digging and we went home! 😦

PS Red blinking thing is okay, no harm done! 🙂

Yesterday evening we made a nice walk: me, dad and mum. We were walking near river Scheldt at high tide, I like that! Lots to see!

Mum found another game: she and the red blinking thing were playing hide and seek with the Boerentoren. That tower is very well known! And historical! When the building of it was finished in 1931, it was the first skyscraper in Europe! (Not for very long, but it has been the first and only one!!) Yes, really! Only the cathedral is higher! 🙂

Where ever you go near the river Scheldt on the left bank, you always see the cathedral! Cathedral is always in the middle of the Antwerp skyline! People in the Middle Ages, when this cathedral was built, were very, very smart! They exactly knew where to build this famous cathedral, right in the middle! Still today, she is always in the middle! ❤
And other buildings can hide behind her… as we saw yesterday. And we show you.

After the hide and seek we were having a rest. Mum and dad did, I was exploring and inspecting the rest-place. Result? Hahahahahaha! See the pic!

No Boerentoren!!!

If you look very carefully, you can see the tower peeping… 😉

Tower appears a bit!

Tower is coming!

Yes! There it is, our tower!

You see it clearly! Boerentoren is on left of the cathedral.

So beautiful, isn’t it?

Antwerp skyline…

Me, looking around…

Small friend coming nearer and then goes hiding in the grass.

Exploring and inspecting!

Mum, how come my beard is black???

Cathedral always in the middle… Boerentoren on the right side of the cathedral! ??? !!

Antwerp skyline!
