    A lovely walk in nature!

    Some of you may know, for this summer I've made a list of places I'd like to visit with Cookie while he is still mobile (he's an old guy). For that reason, I bought a car over a year ago. Even though this summer isn't what you would naturally expect of a summer to be (too "cold" and too rainy), we'be checked out some of the places from the list.

    Yesterday, we visited a beautiful river. It's a two-hour drive from Belgrade where we live.

    The water was COLD. Seriously, my bones hurt. Cookie didn't care. Actually, he was revived. We lost a ball. And I almost lost one slipper (some fishermen downstream caught it and brought it back to me - I was the happiest woman on Earth because these rocks really hurt!).

    Enough said, on with the pictures!

    Happy boy




    Some pictures of the nature










    Fetching the ball before we lost it




    It was a lovely walk








    Here's the moment we lost the ball. It went downstream really fast. Cookie did his best to retrieve it but luckily I managed to call him back. He is such a stubborn guy.




    Sad boy.

    He tried to get the rocks out instead




    But gave up quickly






    The compromise was fetching sticks instead...







    And a video, for the end:

    I always enjoy your pictures so much...with and without Cookie because I love the scenery in your area of the world. Cookie looks wonderful...and definitely having his usual good time. His rock hunting pose makes him look like a big puppy...what a sweet face.

    I don't see a video...just a big black box. Is it just me?

    Well, bummer... I don't know why the video won't work... It's on YouTube and no music so no copyright issues... I'll paste just the link, try that: July 23, 2018 - YouTube

    Serbia really has tourism potential, so many rivers, lakes and mountains, but the government isn't promoting it as it should.. Unfortunately Cookie is too old now, for us to hike and climb mountains, he can manage a 2-3 mile walk on an easier terrain, and I had to keep that in mind while making my list.
