Hi Everybody!<\/p>\n

Well, we made it to the Airedale Walk. This is the first time we’ve ever been to one of these and I have to say I loved it!!! I didn’t want to go home! All in all there must have been about 50 Airedale Terriers there including Archie, Nelly’s litter brother. They had a noisy reunion!<\/p>\n

\"Archie\"<\/p>\n

You can just see his sister Taya behind the chair looking down. Taya has a fascination with stones. To Archie’s left is Oscar their black lab brother. He was honorary Airedale for the day.<\/p>\n

We said Hello to a lot of Dales including this 1 year old with the most amazing bushy tail!<\/p>\n

\"BushyTail\"<\/p>\n

Then Nelly found Ellie and a little fella who looks just like our friend Pinot!<\/p>\n

\"NellieEllie2\"<\/p>\n

Ellie is 16 weeks old and my little sister and her hit it right off.<\/p>\n

Dad and I checked out the BBQ facilities.<\/p>\n

After all the introductions were made we set off down the canal tow path.<\/p>\n

\"SetOff\"<\/p>\n

\"Canal\"<\/p>\n

… and true to form Mum, Dad, Nelly and I fell back further and further until we couldn’t see anybody else.<\/p>\n

\"LastOne\"<\/p>\n

We would have got lost if it hadn’t been for this young man and his Mum showing us the way to the River Aire.<\/p>\n

\"RiverAire\"<\/p>\n

Aaaaaaah, I feel right at home! Nothing nicer than cooling down hot paws in the river where my kind originated from.<\/p>\n

\"FinniDip\"<\/p>\n

They took us back the scenic way and we saw another lock with a barge passing through.\u00a0 It was almost close enough to jump in … and the kitchen door was<\/strong><\/em> open …<\/p>\n

\"FinniBarge\"<\/p>\n

Finally – after 2 hours – we were back at the 5 locks at Bingley<\/p>\n

\"The5Locks\"<\/p>\n

Turns out we were not the last ones … just. Back at the Airedale Boat Club were lots of tired Dales and hoomans enjoying refreshments.<\/p>\n

\"Recouperate\"<\/p>\n

After refreshments it was time for games! We entered Nelly in a sausage eating competition. We had real hopes but didn’t factor in her fastidious nature. Because she insisted on licking each plate clean she was last.<\/p>\n

\"SausageGame\"<\/p>\n

Mum just managed to persuade her not to lick all the other contestant’s plates clean too. LOL<\/p>\n

\"SausageGame2\"<\/p>\n

It was a great day out, even though Nelly was collecting quite a few boyfriends! We were on our best behaviour, and Mum and Dad said we’ll be back next year!<\/p>\n
