Traveling The World with my humans

June 17, 2017 – Surrey/BC This morning my humans had to pack all our stuff. Even the tent had to be packed. It took a while and after that they had breakfast in the TV room again. After that we left the RV Park and took the bus to the Sky Train station. We took the train, had to change the train once and after we got off the train we had to take two different busses. It was a long ride, almost 2 hours. Finally we got off the bus and had to walk. Somehow we walked into the wrong direction. I don’t mind walking but my master had two suitcases and my mistress had to carry the backpack. At the end we found the house, right next to the bus stop we went off. My humans said this is an Airbnb, whatever this means. I don’t care as longs as I am with my humans. They said they were looking forward to sleep in a bed. One thing I noticed, there is no train track and no freeway, and it is quiet. Dean, our host was not there, but his girlfriend opened the door for us and showed us our room. I li...

June 16, 2017 - Burnaby Cariboo RV Park Today the rain was gone; at least it wasn’t raining continuously. My humans had breakfast in the TV room again as it is warm in there and they can work on their stupid computers. I don’t like the computers, they don’t bark and while my humans spend time with the computers they don’t spend time with me. On the other hand, while they spend time on their computers I can take really long naps. I take the chance now to tell you a little bit more about me. As I already told you I am a mixtures of Golden Retriever (my dad) and Australian Sheppard (my mom). I have two younger brothers, Luigi and Gino. They were born on another day. I was born on April 24, just like my mistresses's daughter – one of my humans - and my brothers were born on the next day. Luigi is black with a white spot on his chest and Gino almost looks like me. When I was a puppy I was grey with little black spots. Lucia, my human mom, took very good care of us puppies. When we...

June 15, 2017 – Burnaby Cariboo RV Park It’s raining. I don’t like rain! As the weather was bad busking was not an option today. My humans decided to do another workday in the TV room. I like that idea as it means for me I can take a very long nap and don’t need to be out in the rain. My mistress paid for two more nights at the RV park but we can't stay longer as the limit is 7 nights. My mistress looked for another place to stay and found a nice place on AirBnB. She send a request to stay there, now we have to wait for the answer. The good thing - this is even less expensive then the RV park. Peter, my master, went to the pool after they talked to Ken over the computer. I miss the desert, I miss the warmth, I miss the backyard and I miss the people in Pahrump. I also miss my family in Germany. I trust my humans and I am sure we will all meet again. While my master was at the pool my mistress found a job offer she could not ignore. She applied for it and we will see what ha...

June 14, 2017 – Burnaby Cariboo RV Park Today we slept in again. My mistress had a great night with the sleeping bag and my master was glad he had the blanket for himself. I am fine as long as I am with my humans. It was cold today and my humans decided to work, as we need money coming in. My humans are not only balloon artists. Together with Ken they create balloon software, which helps balloon artists to plan their decorations and show their customers what it will look like when it is finished. They also run an online shop where they sell Ken’s balloon tutorials and the software. There is always something to do – put on some new products, offer special prices for software or tutorials, add more products, … My mistress takes care of the shop and she is always busy. They also made a website for MySolarSupply.com and need to advertise for that. My humans also run a balloon artist business in Germany and they need to answer customer questions and make quotes. The biggest thing they...

June 13, 2017 – Burnaby Cariboo RV Park My mistress was cold last night. I do agree, it was very cold last night. It was only 11°C/51F “warm”. I wasn’t cold as my fur started to grow again. Brook, the nice neighbor, left today. Before she left she told my humans that she can take us with her as she is leaving for Ontario in a couple of days. Isn’t this great? My humans were worried because you are not allowed to take pets on the Greyhound busses we might not be able to take the bus to Calgary. You have to order the tickets online and might not get a refund if they refuse to take me, although I am a service dog. Because my mistress was cold last night and does not want to get sick we walked to the mall today. She wanted to get a sleeping bag. We had to walk to the Sky Train station, remember – this is a long walk. My humans decided to walk as an exercise instead of taking the bus. My mistress got a nice sleeping bag and something to eat. On their way through the mall they asked ...

June 12, 2017 – Burnaby Cariboo RV Park My humans had a good night with their new blanket and me too as I had both of my blankets again. Today we will stay at the RV Park to find a way to go to Calgary, the next big city. To go there we have to cross the Rocky Mountains. The Rocky Mountains are 4.400 m high (12,183 feet). And it will be a long drive to Calgary, which is the closest big city to Vancouver on our way to the east coast. For me this was a relaxing day as I could sleep all day long. The sun was shining once in a while. New “neighbors” arrived. They had three kids and just got married the other day. My master made some balloons for the children while the parents took care of the tent. I like children. While my mistress was walking me we met a goose family. Parents and four ducklings. Never heard of goose living at an RV park. We went to bed early again.

June 11, 2017 Burnaby Cariboo RV Park Although it was cold that night and very loud we had a good sleep. This morning we met Brooke. She is canoeing Canada following the history as canoes traveled Canada 150 year ago. This year is the 150th anniversary of Canada. She is very nice and “lives” in the tent next to us. My humans and I went to Downtown Vancouver today to busk. This time we took the bus to the train station, which was way better than walking. This sky train is shaking very much. My humans told me I am behaving very well. Most of the time the other passengers don’t even notice I am on the train. We took the train to “Waterfront”. It was a sunny but windy day. Waterfront is where to cruise ships to Alaska are leaving and it is also close to Coal Harbor. As my humans did not have breakfast yet they got a coffee and a muffin. We watched the water airplanes coming in and leaving. There were a lot of people and a lot of them talked in German. My humans went to a park cal...
