I can’t tell you what an amazing day Giles and I had!  But I’ll do my best.

Today we got up at 7:00 AM and made our way to our friend Lindsey’s house.  Lindsey has two very adorable Cavaliers named Abbie and Mason, I’ve posted pictures below.

We all piled in the car and headed out to Alexandria, VA for the Christmas Scottish Walk.  We met with the rest of the D.C. Area Cavalier Meet-up Group at the Monaco Hotel on King St.  The organizer of our group, Anne Gavin, reserved their courtyard for us and had arranged for coffee and refreshments.  We milled around there for a bit, chatted, and took plenty of photographs.  Then we headed out the front door, posed for a group shot, then headed down a few blocks to get in our assigned spot for the parade.

The dogs were on excitement overload.  They were oooed and aaahed over everywhere they went!  They’re such an amazing breed.  So friendly and laid back with smiling faces and wagging tales.  And they’re just plain adorable!

Everyone had a great time all bundled up, prancing down the parade route.  There was a good size crowd, cheering and singing, and some AWESOME Bagpipe music!!  I’ll say, that just made my day!

It’s taken me hours to transfer, upload, edit, and organize these pictures/movies/words, so enjoy.

I’d like to thank Anne and the rest of the Cavalier Group.  It was really nice to see all of you there and the dogs so happy.  Sally, Corduroy, Margaret, Bobby, Penny, Nancy, Lucy, Riley and his mommy, Marcie and her Riley, Marty, Buzz, Cooper, Anne, Robbi, Nubi, Calvin, everyone!  Mr. Giles and I thank you!
