Scott loses Pali while looking for Moses

Today is November 18, 2010.   Scott lost Pali on their morning walk. Here's his story...

----

Every morning I take Pali for a stroll along the beach before work. Here's a video of the morning stroll.

She's off leash and runs around smelling things or chasing the pigeons. This morning, we walked a bit further down the beach than normal so Pali is not as familiar with the area.  I turn a corner and call out for Pali to follow.  She comes running but then I see her turn back and run across the hill.  I call out, "Pali" but no Pali.  I wait and call out again.  I thought, "what is she into?"  So I walk back and she's no where in sight.  I see a stray dog munching on something on the beach, but no Pali.  At this point I think, "Oh poopie, I lost Pali."  So I go running up and down the beach twice, yelling out for my lost dog as the Israeli's exercising on the same strip look on.  Pali is not to be found.  I head home which is a 7 minute walk  and probably only a 3 minute run, but I had flip flops on and it takes me 10.  Back to the story.  I get home and who do I see?  Pali sitting at the top of the steps, right next to the door.  Dumb dog isn't so dumb after all. 

That was a stressful morning.

The route home:   From the beach you pass a 3 way, 6 lane intersection.  Buses, motorcycles, bicycles, taxis, all out at 7 a.m.  

 After you cross the intersection you walk a block to a rotary.  A busy rotary.

 

Once you cross the rotary you will come into our neighborhood.  Walk about 5 minutes and you will get to our  apartment.  I am very grateful Pali managed to get home in one piece. To all the Israeli drivers who stopped to let my dog cross the street,  "TODAH".
