Happy Valentine's day!

Let's go to the woods!  You CAN'T miss this nice weather!!!

朝から快晴　森行くぞー！！

I let her go off the leash even before we got to the woods today.

This is sort of a walking trail by the water so I didn't have to worry about cars.

Kaiya was happy and being very good girl never went too far from me.

今朝は　森につく前からオフリーシュでお散歩

この道は水沿いの散歩道で車が通らないから安心

Kaiyaも大喜び　

いい子についてきたり 先に行ってみたり

Now we are here in the woods!

無事　森に到着！

Putting the scent of something she picked up.....you looking funny, girl!!! lol

なんか拾ってきたものの臭いをつけてるらしい・・・変な格好（笑）

We had a lot of sun coming out this week which made snow melt away...not all of it though.

雪はまだ残ってるけど　大分溶けたから地面が見えてるとこが多かった

Running at the top speed and going though that little space under the tree....damn you kick ass!

猛ダッシュで木の下をくぐり抜けてきた・・・すげぇなぁ〜(°o °)

Right after this, a rabbit showed up right in front of us again out of nowhere!!!

Boom! Kaiya turned direction and chased it right away.  

In a couple of seconds, they were out of my sight...:(

I used the whistle again and again but no show for about 5 minutes.

Phew..... I knew she would come back but I was in a cold sweat.

We need to do a better training with the whistle...I guess.

このあと　またウサギが突如目の前に出現！！！

Kaiyaそのまま追跡に入って　ソッコで視界から消える・・・（泣）

笛で呼び戻しを何度もしたけど　５分くらい戻ってこなかった・・・

いやぁ　焦ったぁぁぁ(^^;)

戻ってくるのは分かってるけど　長い間視界から消えられちゃうと焦る

笛の呼び戻しもっとトレーニングしなきゃなぁ〜

We gotta keep enjoying the sun little more so we continued little farther.

This is where I usually come in summer to swim.

It was icy and slippery so we couldn't go down the cliff but the view was nice!

天気の良さにつられて　今日はもうちょっと先まで散歩しに

夏にいつも泳ぎにくる崖のスポット

凍っててツルッツルだから下まで降りれなかったけど　景色はなかなか

People think the same, I guess.

Many people are out taking a walk,  jogging and enjoying the fine day.

みんな考えてることは同じかな

太陽光につられて今日は散歩したりランニングする人が多かった気がする

Just as I thought I heard some animal cry, there was a little zoo kinda place in front of us.

なんかの鳴き声が聞こえると思ったら　小さい動物園的なとこ発見！

It was the sheep that I heard.

But their sounds scared Kaiya...she sit there as a rock.

羊がめっちゃ鳴いててKaiya硬直

もうちょっとフェンスの近くに行こうと思ったけど　頑として動かない（笑）

We finally moved to go forward and we found goats and ponies.

Again, she stood tight. lol

This is as far as we got close to those animals.

今度は　ヤギとポニー発見！

ここでもKaiya固まる（笑）

これ以上近くにはやっぱり行けなかった(^^;)

We came too far to go back home.

I decided to cheat and take a train back :p

Just as we started walking towards the nearest station, something jumped out in front of us.

..............

it's a deer!!!

Wow!!! The second I recognised what it was, another one came out!!!

They chased each other and went away.

Kaiya and I just stood there just watched them go until they were out our sight.

I just remember when Kaiya was a half size of herself now, she used to mock the deer jump.

She saw a deer when she took a walk with daddy.

After that she sometimes jumped like a deer instead of running.

She was super cute when she did it.

Well, she didn't do it today...I guess she forgot how to do it.

遠くまで来すぎて家まで戻るの大変になっちゃったから

ズルして近くの駅から地下鉄に乗って帰ろうと駅の方向に歩き始めたら

目の前にヒョイッと何かが飛び出してきた

・・・・・・・・・・目が合って・・・・・・・

鹿だぁぁぁっっっ！！！！！

ってビックリした瞬間に　もう１頭現れた！！！！！

２頭で追いかけっこして走りさって行ったよ！

Kaiyaも私も　思わずあっけに取られて　リアクションあんまりできなかったねぇ（笑）

そういえば　Kaiyaがまだ今の半分くらいの大きさのときに

ダディと散歩中にやっぱり鹿に遭遇して

暫く鹿の真似して　走るんじゃなくて

ピョンピョンってな感じに跳ねてたのを思い出した(^^)

さすがに今日はもうしなかったけどね

We saw a lot of animals today:)

I was too hungry.  We took train back and hurried home.  The 3 hour walk is done!

I made special brunch for the valentine's day!

動物との遭遇が多かった３時間ほどの散歩終了！

お腹空きすぎて　帰りは電車で帰ってきたけどね（笑）

まっ　バレンタインデーなんで　気合いを入れて手作りブランチ
