Joy Ride

I am going in this thing because THEY have trained me to ENTER IT!!! Am I out of my %$!#$%@* mind?

So here’s what’s happing in real time.  I have for the last week been taken out for little daily jaunts.

First we sit in the thing called a car and THEY chatter like magpies, as if everything were the most natural happening in the owrld.

This is supposed to help me relax.

Oh, yeah…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

THEN, THEY keep chattering and turn on the motor or whatever that thing is that makes the thing I’m in go or stop.

Go backup or go forward, I mean.  It does NOT go sideways except in bad situations. That is why I am seatbelted in, whatever that is.

THEN, they back up out of where the car is (called a garage), chattering away, and then go forward VERY SLOWLY down our street until we reach the drive along the sea.

Oh, sorry, did I mention that I am in my CAGE…er traveling apartment. (Okay, okay, it’s larger and it’s comfortable but what the heck, it’s an ENCLOSURE.)

SO…I in my prison, THEY in their chattering mood, the what’s called a CAR has its motor running, and all of us together are MOVING, MOVING, MOVING…

You get the picture, right? ARGGGGGH…

But you know what?  Tonight’s ride was sort of fun!  Papa took us to the supermarket and mama went in and papa and I communed and bonded, whatever that is.  And you know, I didn’t make a sound on the way home.

I think it’s working.

Whatever IT is.

Plus this is what I come home to…pas mal.

Hey, you guys, can we stop at a drive-in next time?  A nice burger and some fries might be more incentive to travel!

Loulou, you know full well there are no drive-ins in FRANCE!

Loulou, I am so happy to hear that your rides in the car are going a bit better. I will wish for good sailing weather next week and be thinking of you. Soon, you will be looking out the window in Rome at city life and that might be a nice change of pace. I miss you! 💕🦉

Loulou, it doesn’t matter to us. We never get used to being in the travelling box.

So glad you are warming up to your short car trips! A little “we” time with your papa is always nice 🙂

Wow, Loulou, it looks exciting to go out in that thing. We go now and then and we tall Mummy ALL THE TIME that we don’t want to be there but she just answers us like she has no idea what we just said. She’s so silly.

Ooooh burger and fries!! Yes – that would make the Highway to Hell trip much more interesting!! Well, these are just some of the things we have to deal with to be near our peeps who love and spoil us. Thank goodness it’s just not too often…….but I’ve gotten used to it and sleep through the trips. You will too. A burger would help…….

Hey, Loulou, Jan has been teaching me the joys of sitting in a moving box too. (Not in a crate, though.) Now I sit on the back seat all by myself and don’t make a fuss about getting into the front. Pretty soon she is going to HAVE to let me drive. You might want to shoot for driving too.

LouLou-I cannot believe there are no MacDonald’s in France.True, they are not drive ins, per se, but as far as burgers and fries and milk shakes (all things in moderation, of course.)go, they are available.
