Oggi the weather was foggy but it didn’t rain. Gene and Phantom and I hiked on three different sentieri (trails) today, but sadly there were no belle viste to be found. There was a lot of fango (mud), acqua, thorns, and spiky chestnut balls, though. I got lots of foto d'acqua:
Here is a foto of one of the blazes (usually they have numbers on them):
I also got lots of foto della nebbia:
And here are some facce:
Here is a cachi (persimmon) tree. Cachi have the texture of old cucumbers and taste like sweet ickiness.
These are fiori (flowers) that look like paper lanterns:
Here are some dead ones:
Here is Phantom il cane:
Phantom ended up getting very fangoso (muddy), so Gene and I took him the the dog wash. That is a nice little place that provides everything you need to wash a cane. To use it, you have to insert your dog wash card, and then it recognizes you:
Gene got Phantom into the tub, then hosed him down:
He shampooed and conditioned him:
Then he dried Phantom off:
Phantom is soft and fluffy now!
Here is a thrilling video of Phantom's bath:
And apparently Ikea isn't the place to get your gingerbread house kits, as demonstrated by the remains of our gingerbread village:
Ciao tutti from me, Bridget!
