A lesson in how to swim

Today we took millie for her first proper beach trip. Now that the summer season is pretty much drawing to a close, with fewer tourists and no Cypriots frequenting the beaches, we decided to take millie to the beach in Larnaca. We have taken her once before, but we had only had her for a month or so and she was so scared it wasnt an enjoyable experience.

Today was a whole different story. She loved the beach running like a bunny at the speed of lightening up and down. And considering this is probably the first time she had been swimming, well she took to it like a duck to water. She was a bit scared; remember the first time you went swimming and you were probably the same...thinking what the hell is this. But her little doggy legs worked overtime and I think (I hope) she had fun. Her bottom was wagging the whole time so thats a good sign.

Oh the joys of a Sunday afternoon in october on the beach. You have to love this island when it gives you sunshine 365 days a year.
