Starting Vacation

Bunny here at the keyboard sharing exciting news.

Wednesday morning came and I knew that something was up.  Mom had some of her stuff in a suitcase and some of my stuff in my suitcase.  My friend DJ and his mom had spent the night and they were loading up their stuff, too.  We got all ready, put our stuff in their car and got in.  Then we drove for a long time.

We saw some interesting stuff on the road, but we didn't make many stops.  It was just driving forever and ever.  I thought I'd never be able to stretch my legs out again.  Finally, in the early hours of the morning, they decided to stop and find a place for us to sleep.  The only problem was that the only hotels we kept seeing were Comfort Inns and they have this stupid rule that pets can't stay in their rooms.  We were getting pretty tired when we finally found a place that would let DJ and me sleep in the room, too.  I was all too glad to go potty, get our stuff out of the car, ride the elevator up to our room and crash on the bed with Mom.  It was a very nice bed! 

The next day, we got up and started on the final leg of our trip to Dewey Beach.  We got there in the afternoon, just in time for the Around the Hounds party.  Oh...my...dog!  This is one of my favorite collar makers and the stuff they had was very fancy.  I was a bit disappointed that they didn't have many fancy collars that would fit me, but I had fun looking and I did get a new leash for hiking, a collar for Blueberry and a leather collar with sparkles on it for me. 

After that, we headed to a restaurant where there is outdoor seating to meet up with a bunch of online friends.  It was a lot of fun sniffing all the hounds.  However, the hounds in my tummy were howling and I had to beg for some french fries from a man at the next table.  It's sad the things we Greyhounds have to suffer at times.

My friend DJ was parched, so he got a drink.  Actually, he drank two and a half glasses full.  I had no idea that much water could even fit into a hound's tummy at once.

I'll try to share more of my adventures tomorrow and next week, as long as I'm not too tired to write about them.  One thing I can say about the trip is that I like the room service!  I can't wait to get a sniff of the ocean!
