Just outside our room in the B&B was a newborn nest of birds. The mother was busy feeding them freshly caught yummie insects and I was able to get a nice series of shots of her working!

Now and then I bring the dogs to our favorite Bed&Breakfast Mollenvlied. I find peace and quiet and can work there and the dogs are happily running around the premises, fascinated by the hens in the ren and the rabbits in the bushes! Spring only just arrived here in Holland and the many high trees in the area were covered with leaves in that lovely light awakening green colour. Yatzie and Moët are happy as ever here in Mollenvlied. And gray-haired Saartje enjoys experiencing new things in her old days aswell!

On our way back to Holland we stayed in Malmö for just a day. I took the dogs in the early morning to the sea side. It was so quiet and beautiful. Chilly but sunny. Here is a video capturing the beauty.

In Stockholm Yatzie got to met her best friend the portugese waterdog Isa. They had not met for three years. Just before leaving the house I said to Yatzie: Shall we go to see Isa? She became so excited, she ran around the house looking for Isa, she started crying standing by the door so she could go search for Isa. Isn't it amazing the memory the dogs have? Three years and she knew exactly who we were going to see. Their meeting was a bit hesitant. They smelled each other like usually, but the playing they had together did not happen this time. Yatzie is very much a one friend dog. In Sweden it was Isa. Now she has Moët and that is enough for her it seems. But the memory of Isa and all the fun things we have done together is definetely still there!

Do not know who loves it the most -  the kids or the dogs!!!!

At Götaplatsen, at Kungsportsavenyn, in Gothenburg centrum, stands a great statue of the Greek God Poseidon with a treasue in his hand. But my godman Bart had a much nicer treasure in his arms! The dogs were having a ball playing with each other on the square, and we were enjoying the sun. On Kungsportsavenyn two fabulous white horses came by with Royal guards all dressed up.

The weekend in Gothenburg was a gold mine for Yatzie! First day she found a whole big sausage lying around in the city centre. Next morning she found a whole big baguette on the beach. Yatzie is very focussed on eating lately. I am waiting for her heat to start and then her eating habits always change. I let her eat what she found  - she was so happy and proud!
