the temperature hit 19degrees celsius today, and to celebrate, we took a hike in the botanical gardens. come on, HM, you need to walk faster to catch up!


can you spot me? that's a cheap trick to get a picture, HM, you know i am afraid of heights.

HM needed to be back in 2 hours to collect her laundry but we figured that was plenty of time. who knew that she could get lost... in the Botanical gardens?!



we weren't the only ones there at 730am in the morning. ducks were afloat, and deer were afoot.




it was embarassing, but along the way i had to excuse myself behind a bush several times to relieve my upset stomach. i went to a bbq with HM yesterday and ate too much, too quickly.


walking me has become a full-day affair: a walk in the morning, a brush-and-bath that lasts well into the afternoon. HM tried to make it easier for herself and decided to give me a haircut herself. *sob* it's butt-ugly and i will post no further pictures of myself until my hair grows out!
