Nostalgia 28: Summer with Magic

"Pets are Not Allowed in the Resort." This was posted in one resort where we spent our weekend last summer. But daughter insisted not pet but a member of family. Never did she call even once as dog or pet but by his name. She said that he got his own name so why addressed him as dog.

Typical lifespan of dog is 12 to 15 years but this depends on the breeding. Longest time recorded is 24 years. I am already starting to condition the mind of my little girl about dog life span and that they live shorter than human.
I don't know how it would be like when time comes that Magic has to leave us. It surely will break our heart.

walk along the beach with bestfriend

Aside from slide that attracts to my little one, she was able to swim for a while at the beach but the heat of the sun didn't get her to stay there for long. She opted to swim in the pool where there's special net to protect the skin from direct sunlight.

And what makes that vacation complete? She was able to walk along the beach with her bestfriend. It was the first time she spent vacation with Magic. Everytime we go home for a vacation, she would always worry about Magic and how he's doing alone in our neighbor here in Manila.
