East London: Bunkers Hill Dog Walk in the Rain

Date: 22 March 2010

Location: Bunkers Hill, East London

Walkers: Helen, Paddy and Shadow

For this morning's walk we decided to go a-wandering along the streets, as we did here.

First we walked up to the open field and walked Shadow around the perimeter. Then we walked further along the streets of the suburb. The skies were lovely, with a fair bit of cloud about.





Out of nowhere some dark clouds gathered and we got caught in a rather fierce but fortunately very short rain-storm. We were getting drenched so hurried home. But the rain was over by the time we got home and a pretty rainbow came out.

East London: Dog Walk on the Field Again

Date: 21 March 2010

Location: Bunkers Hill, East London

Walkers: Paddy, Helen and Shadow

Back to the sports fields (see also here and here) for a leg stretch for me, my mom and the pooch.

As before we meandered around the large field with the cricket pitch. This evening though my attention was drawn to the beautiful skies above.






We extended the walk with a detour along the streets on the way home.

East London: Dog Walk on the Lower Field



Date:
20 March 2010

Location: Bunkers Hill, East London

Walkers: Helen, Paddy, Flick and Shadow

I went back to the nearby sports fields with my mom and aunt to give Shadow the dog her afternoon walk. This time we went through the gum trees and down to the lower field, then round to the big field afterwards. It was overcast and gloomy and we hoped for some much-needed rain - a few drops fell later but not nearly enough.

East London: Dog Walk in Bunkers Hill

Date: 20 March 2010

Location: Bunkers Hill, East London

Walkers: Helen, Paddy and Shadow

This morning's dog walk took us around the leafy streets of Bunkers Hill.

We walked up the road to the open plot of land. From here we got a glimpse of the beach front and the city.



Then we meandered along the wide quiet streets of the suburb.





I love all the trees!

East London: Dog Walk on the Big Field

Date: 19 March 2010

Location: Bunkers Hill, East London

Walkers: Helen, Paddy and Shadow

On holiday! I spent a week with my parents at their home in East London.


Their dog Shadow gets taken for a walk twice a day. We took turns as someone had to stay with Brenin, the new puppy, who will only be able to join the walks once he has his next inoculation. This evening dad stayed home and my mom and I walked Shadow to the sports fields nearby.



We strolled around slowly, circling the big main field.



The fields are well used. This evening a soccer practice was on the go.




Walks are the highlight of Shadow's day! Happy girl!
