A REAL VACATION

Over the weekend we (mom, grandma, and me) went on a real vacation. We didn’t just go to Grandma’s house and do stuff there. We went on a real vacation to Ocean City, Maryland. I had never been there but both mom and grandma had been there lots and lots. Mom and Grandma said we were going to the beach but I had no idea what a beach was. Mom said it was like the park but better.

We got up on Friday morning and got in the car. I still am not a big fan of the car but lately we have been going to really neat places. I got to sit on grandma’s lap and look out the window. It was really fun until we got to the Bay Bridge. I didn’t like it at all the bridge has these big steel things that went over the top of the car they scared me but mom and grandma said it was going to be okay and soon we were off the bridge and on our way. We stopped once to get gas and go to the bathroom. We also stopped at the cute little white house I thought we were going to stay there but mom said no that this is where they stayed when she was a girl. Then grandma said that it was too early to go to the hotel so she thought we should go to the boardwalk.

Do you know what a boardwalk is? I didn’t but I do now. It is even funnier than the doggie park if you can imagine. I LOVE THE BOARDWALK!!!! There are lots of different smells, people, and dog there. If you are lucky you can find a French Fry, a wadde of gum, or part of an ice cream cone that some one dropped. We would walk around and then sit on a bench and people we didn’t even know would walk up and tell me how cute, adorable, or beautiful I am. Those people are pretty smart! There were all kinds of dogs big ones, little ones, cute ones, and ugly ones. I also learned this weekend that not all humans like dogs and not all dogs like dogs.

We stay at a hotel called “The Barefoot Mailman”. It was a lot different from our house and grandma’s house. It was a big room with 2 beds in it. It had a TV, DVD & VCR, Microwave, and Refrigerator. There was a bathroom too. It was a lot of fun there I could get on mom’s bed and jump over to grandma’s bed without even touching the floor.

There was a pool where all the dogs and their humans hung out in the afternoon. The dogs were not allowed in the pool but we ran around the edge and made our humans nervous. Mom said she didn’t want to have to jump in to save me.

On Sunday we went to the beach. I agree with Uncle Dan...I like it all except when it flushes (that's what he said when he was little). After the beach Sunday morning we went back to the hotel and watch the Redskins game. Mom says they haven't been doing to well this season.
It is exhausting rooting for the Redskins.

I don't think I can do this anymore.

So we put on our redskin stuff and cheered them on and who knew they won.

It was a great time and mom and grandma are thinking we should do this every year. We will have to wait and see. I suggest that everyone go to Ocean City, Maryland...It was the best vacation even better than going to grandma's. Be on the look out for new blog posts with pictures from the boardwalk and beach.
