caught something..

Gosh! Happy had diarrhea and vomiting for the last two days! She has recovered today, no more vomiting and stool is back to normal. Thank God! We were puzzled by her condition, she acted normal, her usual active and cheerful self, but had diarrhea and vomiting! Weird. She might have caught something while out on her walks or even from her usual 'walking gangs' (the village dogs)................

snake attack!

We walked Happy on our usual 2 km route uphill and back this evening. Buddy the rookie village dog came along with us. As Happy was having her potty in the bushes, Buddy ventured into a thick pile of vegetation about 3 metres away from where Happy was taking a dump. In a flash, I saw Buddy being attacked by a startled snake! Thank God Buddy's reaction was quick enough to avoid being bitten by the snake (He jerked backward as the snake attacked him.) The whole thing went by in a flash, the snake disappeared as fast as it appeared, even before I can identify it! We left that area quickly and continued the rest of our walk uneventfully. This area is teeming with snakes! Thank God no one was hurt!

Sha Lo Wan, Lantau Island

D & I brought Happy for a hike this morning.. it has been a long while since we last hiked with her. As the weather is getting better, it's time to start hiking again! :)
We hiked the Tung Chung - Tai O trail by the coast. We didn't hike the whole trail though, just to Sha Lo Wan and back, total distance about 9 km plus. It took us about 2 1/2 hrs to complete the whole trip. Happy enjoyed it so much! She had a good work-out this morning!  For photos, click here.
