The Pawfect Weekend

We were out and about meeting new friends last weekend. The weather was beautiful with clear blue skies and bright warm sunshine. It was the pawfect weather for a hike/tramp (as they call it in New Zealand).

We met heaps of new friends.

Meeting new friends
For our long time fans, you'll know how much we love swimming and the sea. We suffer from the occasional identity crisis - wondering if we're actually really otters in dogs' clothing.

After more than a year away from the waters, we finally found ourselves swimming again, only this time, our first experience in New Zealand waters.

In New Zealand waters
The feeling is same same but different. We were at the Pauatahanui inlet along the Camborne walkway. Clear water with very light currents made very safe conditions for us two light-weight doxies.

In hind sight, the biggest difference with swimming here and back in Singapore must be the climate. It's so much colder here. Someone please invent a doggie wet suit.

Wet suit anyone?
Still, we wouldn't complain because this is where we truly belong. 

Where we belong.
It was the pawfect activity for a pawfect weekend. Must have shed off some pounds from all that tramping and swimming. :)

How was your weekend my fellow doggie pals?
