That's me in the bag (see the close-up). We're at a big waterfall. I got to see it, but my humans failed to take me out of the bag for a good view. I don't think they trusted me not to jump into it, but I'm not that crazy. |  |
When I wasn't in the cabin or in the bag, they would put my harness on and usually carry me down to the beach. At first it was scary and I hid between my human's feet.
Then I discovered shade under a chair where I could watch this strange new place.
My humans built me a sand castle.(I am a princess after all, so it was only fitting.) And I dared to come out to explore it. I dug in the sand and even investigated the water in the moat.

| I played in the grass near the edge of the beach and walked on a drift wood log. (See how grown up I look, I'm about 4 months old) |
|
 |
Then I was carried out over the water. I could tell the water was cold and it was loud. My humans think I'm a dog, which brings me to the other animals on the trip. Leah a puppy a few months older than me, who likes swimming and Elvis a wise old dog, who had been to the beach many times before. He liked barking at all the waves.

Elvis was so tired after our first day that I could sneak up and poke him! |
 |
That evening my humans started to tape orange juice cartons together. It was very strange. Eventually I decided they were making me a house. It wasn't very sturdy, but it was interesting. |
It turned out I was wrong. They weren't building a house. They kept taping and it became a big flat rectangle, they called it a raft. It was strong enough I could stand on it.
 |
Then to my surprise they placed the raft on Lake Superior with me on top of it!!!(to be fair they did first test it) But I was still scared being surrounded by all that moving water. |
It was exhilarating though too. I'm told not many cats ride on rafts, so I guess I'm special. And of course I did get to be captain of the ship.
Eventually I reached dry land again! Rafting wasn't quite my thing, but I really am a beach cat.
 |
Before the vacation
ended I had many more days playing on my beach. |
Then I rode home safely snuggled between my humans dreaming of more sandy adventures.
The End
Send me comments, didn't my trip look like
