views as we entered the Olympic Peninsula day uhhh i dont know does it matter a long time
leisel here theres a lot of hustle and bustle going on today nicole is coming tomorrow for a mail run so i thought id try my paw at the blog
we had a good drive to the olympic peninsula monday got in to the elwha dam rv park best rv park by a dam site went out to dinner i stayed in the car
we got up real early tuesday there was a lot of rushing around and for the first time this trip i saw the suitcases come out that usually means i stay at home alone then i saw my suitcase come out so i stayed real quiet so they wouldnt change their minds but i stayed close so they wouldnt forget me either they piled everything in the car and we drove to town a man came and checked my papers and their little books again then of all things we drove on a boat again they cant fool me i know its a ferry im an expert now i was good as gold they said and when i spoke up i startled the
lady next to us who said she didnt even know i was there we were going to vancouver island in canada and staying at the marriott hotel in victoria
when we got there i walked right up to the counter no hiding me in a suitcase this time no sir this was a pet friendly hotel yay we took our luggage up and left it and went off to our first adventure and i got to go we went to butchart gardens and yep you guessed it dog friendly they were so friendly they let me use a roller chair and i looked like i was a princess in a parade we found a hidden garden for lunch then went through all the gardens italian japanese rose and sunken gardens i knew this was no place to go you know what i did get left in the room that night while they went out to dinner but i didnt care i was exhausted and they had a princess couch just for me and a princess pillow i got a little bored though and tore up the trash just checking
the next morning we decided to take a walk
to the harbor to get breakfast while we were sitting at an outdoor cafe a man from the tv station came to talk to us and had a box on his shoulder and stuck a stick out to talk to he said how hot it was going to get 26c we asked what that was in f and he said 87 then we said we came from texas and it has been 104 87 sounded pretty good to us we probably got left on the editing floor oh well i guess that wasnt my 15 minutes of fame after all
we took a walk to the empress hotel then you wont believe it a carriage ride with a huge horse named sam and his driver kirstin we had great fun and i got my own seat we took a drive along the coast then headed to the afternoon ferry on standby and got on
i cant believe i got to go and do all that stuff every place should be dog friendly places
oh yeah rumor has it we are leaving babs in tucson over the holidays and i get to go on a plane home for
thanksgiving we bring her home next year

Miss you Leisel
Hey Leisel I've been kinda lonely without you, and I sure wish we could have gone on a date at that fancy hotel. Looks like you had a great time...but you should really stay out of the trash cans. I tried it once because you told me what fun things you can find, but I got in so much trouble, I'm afraid to try it again. Hope to see you soon...love, Spot
