We had the most wonderful experience over the weekend, and then the not so wonderful consequences afterwards. Lemondrop and I went to Tap Mun Island with Sami and Donny:
We even had to get our own ferry tickets for the ride over - $20! I'm worth more than a human (who only pays $14), but after hearing that some human paid HK$12M to acquire one of our 4-legged friends, anything is possible these days.
Anyway, I'm getting side-tracked. Tap Mun Island is always fun as it's also called Grass Island since that's what it is, an island covered in grass.
It really should be called Poop Island or Shitty Island as it's also covered in cow dung! Cow dung is rather common and although Lemondrop likes a good roll, I prefer dead leaves and monkey poop myself. But this time Lemondrop and Donny found a specialty on Shitty Island .... HUMAN poop!!! oh my, oh my, did they have fun! Even Sami was tempted!! They stank from a mile away, and the humans were horrified. They were promptly whisked off to get washed, with dish-washing liquid!!
In the sea, they went ...
again ...
and again.
Donny was not impressed with his mistreatment and sulked the whole time thereafter.
Whilst the beastie beagle boys and Sami were busy getting washed, I was allowed to roam freely around the island .... it pays to be a lady ... hehehe.
Sami hates the water and she was traumatised at having to be washed too, so she got lots of loving on the way home. I hope she's now learnt not to be led astray by the beastie beagle boys anymore!
Lemondrop was giving the humans the evil eye .... "there's going to be payback time!"
See how clean and pretty I still am?
So why was I also subjected to the shower when we got home?!!
By the end of the ordeal, poor Lemondrop had gotten washed 4 times in total - twice in the sea with dish-washing liquid, once with a power hose and shampoo (and still mommy vy wasn't satisfied, she said he still smelled bad ... she even sniffed inside his ears!) and finally at home, where he got a 20-min full body shampoo mask.
Honestly, the humans can't really blame us for our behaviour ... they were the ones who pooped in the bushes, and they must eat rubbish food if their poop smells so bad (or good according to Lemondrop)!
