Hunting

Just in case you were wondering, the Dog continues to have her daily walkies, with the occasional Minnie Mice tagging along. (This Mama did not quite know what happened, but it would seem that the Minnie Mouse craze is going on: Kecil and her mouse-ear headband, Ami in her super-large bow, Minnie Mouse style)

While we did not always get the two girls together everyday, it so happened that they just did go together the previous day (with both Mamas) when they saw something interesting, something that they were determined to find again.

And they did! Look! Usagi! Aka rabbit!
Well, the rabbit was pretty spooked by the girls. It ran away just as soon as the girls got too close, much to their disappointment. Mama had to stay a bit further away and hold the Dog, who was so ready to chase the rabbit.
Of course, Daddy would like to add that most likely the rabbit was either spooked by the girls' super-sized appendage (the bow and the ears), or even Ami's Totoro bag. Ha!

Anyway we moved on.

And we were just walking nicely, when we chanced upon yet another cute animal:

A cute little puppy! 
Just in case you can't see it, you should click on the image to enlarge it. The puppy is at the base of the electric pole. And please, no smart ass comments on how a pair of black labrador could get a totally brown, puny pup. I'm not even convinced that the pup is a lab itself.

For many days, we would walk around, and nothing of note would happen. Yet come one day, suddenly it was more of an animal encounter field trip than simply a walk around the block.
Well, the kids were absolutely charmed, the dog-handler kuya amused, the pup got extra petting while Mama got her pics. I guess it was a win win situation for all parties concerned.

Besides, better other people's puppy than their own pony, yes? Let them enjoy other people's pets, just don't bug this Mama (and Ami's) for their own.

Here's for more 'animal-hunting' in the future. Cheers!
