Ahoy comrades, hehe, so far the pirate messages. Back to reality, we are a weekend at the sea today. The sea which is closest to Belgium is the Nord Sea. So, that's the place we went to. As I explained in my previous post, Molly is now ten months old and so we decided it would be the perfect moment to finally let her see the sea the first time. We prepared ourselves and took everything we would need, like snacks for Molly, some water for her to drink and decent shoes to walk on the beach. After driving 15 minutes, we figured out we forgot Molly's leash. Luckily (in this case) Belgium is quite crowded, so we searched for a pets market near the sea and bought one.
Once we arrived at the sea, Molly was already excited that she could leave the car. As it isn't holiday season yet, there was a lot of parking space, so we could park close to the beach. Which is perfect as our veterinary told us to have walks with Molly for 5minutes x her age in months. Nowadays she can thus walk for 50 minutes. When she walked on the beach, we let her loose and she started crossing around. Definitely a happy dog! Than we started walking near the waterline. At first, she seemed scared of the seagulfs, later on, she was more on her ease.
After some minutes, we found a ball laying around. Molly took it and brought it to us. Ofcourse her intention was to play with us and the ball. We threw it away a couple of times and ofcourse Molly ran after it. We didn't end up walking that far as Molly can only walk 50minutes, but these 50 minutes were definitely intense for her. When we came back at the apartment, she fell asleep once we sat down on the couch.
Yes, Molly's first time at the sea was definitely a succes. We said to eachother that we'll try to do it more often. Maybe try to make a dayjourney once in a while to go to the sea. Especially when it's good weather, it's really adorable. So we'll definitely go there once again. As there weren't mucv bars open, we didn't go for a drink this time. So, no Belgian beer for me today. But hey, tomorrow is another opportunity for a good beer! :D
Thanks for stopping by, feel free to tell me if you've already been to the Belgian coast?
