Birthday Party

This month it is 10 years since I (Eric 'the Adventure Hound') started living what I think you human types refer to as 'the life of Reilly' as that is how long ago it was that I was rescued from an animal centre in Northamptonshire, England. Today, we had a little party to celebrate. I put on my best outfit (my SuperDog Tee and my Louis Vuitton collar) I had cards and gifts including a pair of Doggles (about time too - they've been on my Amazon wish list for ages!) and I even had a birthday cake complete with candles and bones!

 

The 1st Sella Feria de Abríl

The Feria de Abríl is a celebration that tends to be associated with Seville, but this year it came to Sella! With Tio Pepe, bunting, 'pescaitos' (little fried fish) and a good selection of loud Flamenco music the 1st Sella Feria de Abríl which was organized by this years fiesta commision was a great success. The event which started at 11:00 in the morning continued all day and into the evening, when most people then watched the Real Madrid vs Barcelona football match either on a large screen in the fiesta commision building or up at the pool bar.

Unexpected Encounter On The Ponoch Via Ferrata

Today I went with a couple of guys who are staying at Casa Blava to do the via ferrata on Ponoch. While we were sorting out our gear in the car park another car arrived. Two young Spanish ladies and a little fluffy white dog then got out. We bid them a good morning and they asked if we were going to do the ferrata, we told them yes and asked if they were planning to do it as well - we took their affirmative answer with a bit of a pinch of salt (they did not look dressed fo such an outing) and then asked if the little fluffy white dog was going to do it as well, to which we got an equally affirmative  response. I still thought that they were joking until they opened the boot of the car and I saw that it was full of climbing gear (talk about never judge a book by its cover!) Sure enough, while we were enjoying a sandwich at the top of the route, who should emerge over the crest in front of us but a certain 'pink' lady, complete with little fluffy white dog very happily ensconced in her ruck sack!

Eric is dead jealous and thinks that he may be in love!
