The beach is probably close to 100 meters long and is around 15 meters wide...so it is great for the dogs to run around and play. The beach is also studded with large rocks and Henry really enjoys climbing up on them and playing king of the hill (see picture). Henry and his canine cohorts played for several hours while the adults entertained themselves with food and chit-chat...it was a rather nice time. Henry loves playing in the water and even though he has yet to conquer his fear of water higher than his chest...he can still have a blast. In fact Henry had such a good time that we are pretty confident that he swallowed a good gallon of sea water. To say that this did not agree with him would be an understatement. Let's just say that part of the ocean came flying out of his rear several times. After the second time Henry was a bit more cautious about swallowing water and we are pretty sure that he has learned his lesson.
After a few hours and with the approach of inclement weather; we decided to call it a day and head home. Henry was exhausted by the time we got home and he spent the rest of the day sleeping off his serious play time. I think it is always a great time when you can get out with the dogs and just have a great time. It is seriously entertaining watching dogs just play with each other. They certainly can take amusement in the simplest things. Perhaps we need to follow their lead a little more often. I can't recall the last time I played a game of tag...but, I am sure it would be fun.
