I wanted to go to the Cathedral today so I could see the statue of Pope John Paul II. Yesterday was lots of stuff about the other pope on TV so I wanted to visit one of them today.

I love walking down the El Callejón de los Curas or in my English The Priests Alley. I like to walk here and take time to smell the beautiful flowers that flow from the top of the buildings. I am so glad that this is just around the corner from my very own home.

Basketball Anyone?

Mom took me on our usual Sunday Walk-About. A sprained my foot a few days before so we had taken it easy for a few days. But, enough or resting, I was ready for a romp and to smell some good odors.

We walked to Cuidad Nueva where some guy gave me some really good Chicken. I had to preform for it. I picked the hand that it was hiding in for them. People really seem to like that trick and they always smile and laugh when I do that one. (Here is a picture of my doing the “Which hand had the food” trick last week for a man from Honduras)

We ended up down by the basketball court between the Malecon and Jose Gabriel Garcia. I used to be really afraid of the bouncy ball but now I am just a little bit afraid. I am getting braver by the day. I only have tremors a little bit now.

I did get a little nervous on the Conde walking but I toughed it out. Mom found this sign so I could just pretend I was on the Conde while I was waiting to play some basketball.

Finally I got my turn to to shoot some hoops and everyone left! I was all alone. Just mom and I. I did not think that I was bad or stinky. Wonder why all those nice boys left.

“Where is everyone and wheres the ball?”

Well, since there was no one to play with, the ball was gone and really I was tired from all the walking we decided to head on to our neighborhood and rest a bit before heading home. Mom got herself a beer and I got a nice glass of cold water.

We hung out there for a little while then headed home where I plopped down on the bed and had me a really sound sleep. It was a good walk about and was a better rest after.

Whos That Dog?

My mom read this cute little picture book called Who’s That Dog? Its about rescued dogs that found their forever homes. When she was done reading she was crying. I like to lick away her tears when she cries. She gave me a big hug and told me she loved me. So, I highly suggest that all you dogs out there get your parents to read this book if you want a big fat hug from them.

The book is written by a guy, Mark J. Asher and he has a web site.

Mom also made a video card from us. I even watched it a few times.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I know I did. I helped my mom make candy and cookies and we even roasted a big chicken for dinner. I ate so much and enjoyed every bite of it. I will probably need to go on a diet..maybe tomorrow…maybe the day after.
