My brudder's report from the island

Hello and thank you, everyone for your tips.

Yap, our humans admit they had a very good time on Oahu, Hawaii.

***************************

Our brudder on board: Aircanada:

Honolulu local Time: 8:30 pm = Toronto Time: 2:30 am

"Bye-by, Hawaii!"

14 hours after they left Hawaii...

Toronto Time: 6:30pm (next day)

"Where have you been??"

This picture is out of forcus but you can see how excited we were.

I Pinot gave a huge hug to brudder.

I am sure my innocent big smile made mom and dad feel VERY guilty.

Check out some of the photos we received while they were away.

"Is that a cake??"

"Who ate that a little bit of here and there?"

Mom and brudder had a 'bite' at least a few times every single day

until they left Hawaii and

almost a half of this big cake was gone.

BUT

dad thought we had to share the bites.

Dad put the cake in a tupperware and it was packed in the suite case.

They were worried that it might have been taken by "Home Land Security" people

but it arrived to Toronto from 5000 miles away.

"Let's cut the cake!"

The bottom tier had haupia cream filling which we don't get here.

"Enjoy, sissy'n'big brudder!"

The cake was absolutely yum!

Mom and dad brought something from the island.

Can you see our matching Aloha bandanas and a shirt?

Now brudder misses what he did everyday on the island. (sign x 2)

He usually got up around 6:15 and was ready to watch the sunrise over the ocean.

Then he had a breakfast on the balcony.

He spent a few hours on the beach in front of the beach house

they stayed every morning.

This is the beach house he mentions.

He loved saying hello to the blue sky and clear water.

He says he sometime needed to take it easy.

This dragon reminded him of us... :D

While driving in Waikiki, he spotted a beautiful Cavalier like me, Momo! :)

They didn't meet many doggie friends but spotted other three Cavaliers.

Humans wanted to try local cuisine.

Mom and dad wanted to try very famouse Shrimp Truck on North Shore.

The first truck they visited was

Giovanni's Shrimp Truck.

It was very garlicky and yum but very very greasy.

As seafood lovers, they also had to give it a try at Fumi's.

Three meals for TWO adults???

Their shrimp plates were so good. They visited three times.

Humans enjoyed desert from this island, too.

Brudder loved Shave Ice. This is a super famose Matsumoto's ice.

Simply YUM!

Here's a little gadget man.

The purpose of the trip was this....

We'll post the photos from the ceremony when they are available. Stay turn.

Ok, last but not least. Our friend Oscar passed on the award a while ago back.

Thank you very much Oscar! Sorry for taking so much time to post this honour.

We had a very nice visit from Boston lately. Toffee and Riley's pawrents were here.

Toffee's daddy is an excellent frisbee coach to me, Pinot.

Thank you so much for spending time with us.

Now we're ready to take off!

Our destinations? Hawaii via Boston!

Where are they staying??

Hi friends!

It's been a week since our mom and dad abandoned us.

There are many good humans at the hotel and we're doing well. :) :)

A very kind staff helped us to check our emails on her phone and

this is what we received from mom and dad so far!

Where are they staying?

Momo & Pinot/J & R

Bon voyage!

When mom gave us this Pup-Pie a few nights ago,

we had to wonder why.

Our barkdays are over and it was not an anniversary or anything.

She must have guilty feeling for something

but no time to cook anything at home.

Next day we found ourself in a car and we had an hour trip to this place in north of Toronto.

We saw some familiar faces here at the reception of the hotel.

After lots of paper work, we were taken to our suite.

See you soon, mom and dad. We know you will miss us...

Justice for Jess

***** What is going on?? ******

A few days ago, we found ourself in the vet's office. Our vet, Dr. S is a very nice human but

all our vaccinations were up to date. We usually come here when our mom and dad will be away for a little while.......

Wait?

Wait???

Are they going to leave us??

****** Justice for Jess ******

Do you remember this doggie we posted over a year ago?

(our link is here.)

This is Jess who would be 13 year old today, being loved by many,

was stolen in public place and sadly killed.

Man named Gary Marshman of Bradford, West Yorks, UK was found guilty of theft ('theft' not 'murder?) and he'll be put in jail for 26 weeks. (26 weeks? Not 26 years?)

We don't think this is fair to Jess and his family but at least this terrible man

GARY MARSHMAN was caught and he will serve jail time.

Thank you so much for sharing this news, our friend Ludo!

RIP Jess

Pinot turns three!

It's my turn. Today is my barkday.

I am a cool dude! Am I?!?

Momo & Pinot/J & R

It's time to meet lady C!

This morning we had a nice walky, got some fresh air at the park

and had a usual ten-minute 'let's brush mats out from your hair-

especially,you Pinot' time on the balcony.

(Momo) I am the maintain free princess Momo.

Then we made a short trip to meet our groomer, Lady C.

She is a very lovely lady who knows us very well.

Four hour later...........

This is a pic when we were picked up by mom and dad.

"Dad, you bette put your nose me first!"

"Nope, mine first!"

The autumn air was once again so refreshing even if we were posing to the camera

at the parking lot. :D :D

Check this out!

We got a "PAW UP" from our brudder.

We're going to have extra extra cuddles from mom and dad tonight!

Momo & Pinot/J &R

September 2! It's my barkday!

I am FIVE and I feel f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s!!

Yay!

A week ago, we noticed leaves changed colour and thought we had to say good-by to

summer. But it's very warm again.

We have to enjoy the rest of our short summer this week.

There're so many stuff going on here right now.

Oh..no worries we're looked after well. :) :)

We're not able to stop by your blog as often as we want but we always think of you.

Momo & Pinot/J & R

Two! Our brudder is Two!

Most of you got it right! August 13 was our brudder's barkday.

After posting a photo of our very plain cheese cake,

we put lots of raspberries and Champaign grapes on top and

later on we sprinkled lemon zest all over the cake.

"That looks better, mom!"

While we were helping our mom,

a very sweet surprised came in to our computer- just in time from

Mango, Ximui and Chubs in Texas!!

A BIG thank you, Mango, Ximui and Chubs and mommy!!!

It's so kind of you guys!!!!

After that, barkday ballons were picked up in the morning.

Just like his first barkday (link), three humans went to ONE to celebrate his barkday.

They were initially looking for restaurant named TWO but they had no success in Toronto.

"I am having Risotto!"

"I am TWOoooooooooo!"

Then he called us.

"Hi sissy Momo and brudder Pinot!"

Back home, it was getting late for this young human.

So we decided to open one pressie together.

This strange shaped toy made our brudder giggles so hard.

"Beep beep beep.... The alien is just arrived!"

Next morning, brudder was ready to open the rest.

"Can I give you a paw, brudder??"

"Mom, don't forget. Our barkday are around the corner!"

"Cheeeeeeese for cheesecake!"

We lit the candle.

"Can we dig in?"

Brudder tried to blow the candle and he actually DID

right after mom pressed 'stop' botton.

Time for cheese cake, fianlly our turn!

"Sissy, feel the flavour!"
