Shhhh ....

I need your advice, quick !

Is this a suffering, desperate enough face for Mom to worry enough to wizz us to the car and go to the closest ice cream parlour full speed ahead ?

Bof ....

Not only Mom didn't fall for it but she laughed out loud and called me a "drama queen" ...

All I got in the end was a couple of bottles of water back in the car ...

And more laughing from Mom ...

Aww Eurydice looks sad that the fellow on the left is holding the guy's head on the right. Well, enough of that brutality, Miss Cow is ready to reach the homeland and it's beautiful music.

But no ice cream? Your mom really has a lot of self control. 

Looking forward to more of your travels and adventures.

Hey sweet auntie Kerren and kitty cats 💗🐱🐱💗

You are SO right Mom has a lot of self control ice cream wise 🍧🍨 unfortunately 😕 

At least Christmas is coming up soon 🎄and Rita (one of my human sisters) has spent the whole day in the kitchen today making all sorts of MARVELLOUS food  😛😛 YAY 😜😜 

Shhhhhh .... 

Keep this to yourself but Mom is THE biggest disaster in the kitchen, nobody and I mean nobody  😱 can eat her food 💀even if she tried her absolute best ☝🏼️🍴

I am so glad you, Eli and Mona are with us on this trip 💕😸😸

I am very excited, Mom always makes something special for us 👌🏽 every single day 💞

Sending you lots and lots and lots of licks and cuddles to Eli and Mona 😻😻and kisses from Mom too 😘😘😘💓💓💓

Er ... I don't want to wave my flag here but I am really popular wherever I am ...

It seems most humans have this incredible compulsion to get their cameras out and click click click away ...

Not that I am complaining, of course ... once a girl, always a girl ...

I keep my lipstick at hand at all times so all pictures are goodwinker

Ok Mom.  That sad desperate face absolutely deserved ice cream. . .

Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016.  Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016.  Lung mets August 25, 2016.  Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016.   Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.  

Wherever they are, they are together.

We were in Cascais but then Mom said I MUST see this beautiful garden in Lisbon called Gulbenkian where she used to go to when she was a young lady ...

She said she was totally sure I would enjoy it enormously so off we went !

When we got there I really liked the look of it, so much so I decided to have a pee so all other dawgs would know I was around and then ... the security guard came and said dawgs are not allowed .... damn !!!!

Mom made a case for me and this chap was really apologetic but apparently there are a lot of small children who visit regularly with their schools so they want to make sure there are no traces of pee and poop around ... 

Anyway ...

So, we decided to have a stroll around instead and it paid off because we met some more wonderful humans such as Carlos and his friend heart

I retained Carlos name and not his friend's (I am a little ashamed to admitblush) only because he was holding some totally yummy and delightful meat "croquettes" in a paper packet in his hand rasberry and I was hoping at least one would end up in my mouth ...
