A steet with a view

At the end of our street you'll find some pretty spectacular views of the Jamieson Valley which is part of the Blue Mountains National Park. We took a walk down to one of the lookouts this evening. It was a warm night and even though it's not far from home we were hot and tired when we got there. We still managed to put on our smiley faces for the camera.

We've shown you lots of pics of our adventures out and about but we've never shown you the lovely scenery that is so close to home.

We don't come down here very often because the walking track is part of the National Park and here in Australia dogs aren't allowed in National Parks.....yeah it's true, I know, I know, you can't believe it either!!!! Sooooo, on the odd occasion, the pinkies take us on a quick walk from one lookout to another but you can't tell anyone ok.....ssshhhhh.

This weekend is the Australia Day long weekend. So to all our Aussie maties happy Australia Day to you.

Hugs and tail wags

Happy Australia day to you and the girls Noah! I hope you got to celebrate with a treat or two. What a beautiful place you live in. Mom is so in love with the scenery and is bugging Dad to take a vacation down under, but I'm not OK with that. Where would I go? Maybe they could sneak be in and I wouldn't have to be quarantined, and I could stay with you guys. With four 'dales, maybe your pinkies wouldn't notice if a fith popped up for a week or two! He he!!!

Your pal,
Kirby

Headgirl said...

What stunning views!
I'm suprised & sad for you that dogs are not allowed in Australian National Parks - seems very harsh. Would have thought that 'on leash' would have @ least been okay!
Still, you all magage to sneak in which is great.

parlance said...

Your fantastic views got me thinking, Noah. I know your humans run a B&B. Can human visitors bring dogs with them when they stay? (Penny wants me to ask.)

Amber-Mae said...

Wow, breathtaking views...You four are always sooo well behaved in your photos. We are NOT like you guys! hahaha! Sooo much for well-trained dogs, harharhar!

Love licks,

What great scenery! It reminds our Mom of the Grand Canyon. We still can't figure out how they get all 4 of you to pose so nicely. Our mom can't seem to get TWO of us to stand still!

Simba and Jazzi said...

I know how you feel, here dogs are only allowed on some of the beaches in the summer. Where's the fun in that? Glad you sneaked in.

Jackson's J1 and J2 said...

Hey pals, how do you all manage to sit so nicely together? Is bribery involved? Or are you just extremely well behaved?? It looks so lovely where you live. J x

Finni said...

You live in a beautiful area guys. How come dogs aren't allowed? You could always go at night or really early in the morning when no one else is about.

Thor and Jack said...

Bogart H. Devil said...

Gorgeous!!!

But what is even more gorgeous than the view is the sight of all 4 of you out and about - I think mom could use some pointers on your 4-dales-at-once technique :)

Love,

What magnificent views!!

HM and I can never understand that National Parks rule either - it excludes us from so many beautiful places to explore.

Happy Australia Day to you all too :)

Happy Australia Day, and please know that your secret is safe with me. (My girl is a bit of a rebel too when it comes to such rules).

Goober love & smooches,

Hi Noah!

You know that our dad had a heart transplant, right? Well, when dad was sick he and mom had SO much good help from all of our friends! They came out of the woodwork to help us do anything and everything! After dad's transplant, the parents decided to throw a pawty to thank everyone who helped us and we had such a good time that now it's turned into an annual pawty!

Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch

Noah...what a bootiful place you live in...we just caught up on ur last posts...so glad the tummy surgery went well...and everything came out ok, so to speak!

So someone else's dogs piddle in the house...hmm...happens a lot here...we're very sneaky...

Wanna tell us the story of the fight involving the tongue???

How do you have 3 bit^^es living together without fights? Babystan has decided to challenge my alpha bit** position...any help for Mumsie? It makes her very nervous when he gets scrappy...Scruffy backs off cuz he's a wimp, but I fly right in his face...it usually happens at feeding time. Mumsie puts all of us in a sit stay now, and that helps remind him I'm boss. Pee mail Mumsie at kreitm@gmail.com She'd love it if you have multiple doggie suggestions to prevent aggression. Should she just expect these challenges and let us work it out?

Very very belated Happy Australia Day to you all!

Your pics are lovely. So beautiful - not only the views but more especially you and the crew!

What a shame you have to be sneaked in, though. The only places we are not allowed here is on some of the beaches during the summer, otherwise, anywhere is ours!

love and belated licks, Marvin xxxx

Jake of Florida said...

What beautiful blue mountains!! Sorry we missed your Australia Day -- we read about it though, and thought of you and all the other Aussie pals we've met on the DWB.

Our Mom, who can't seem to walk the two of us together is awed by the four of you out and held by just one strong human paw!!!

Woofs, pals,

Jake nd Just Harry

Koobuss said...

Happy Belated Australia Day, Guy!

Hammer said...

Hi Noah and girls
Your photos are beautiful. Mum used to live in Sydney and she's been on many walks in the Blue Mountains National Park. It's a shame silly hoomans have done the wrong thing and now doggies, even on a lead, can't go into national parks.
It's real hot up here in QLD too. On my barkday it was so hot that I did not even want to go for a walk on the beach. I just wanted to sit, so mum decided to sit with me. Hobson and Rose weren't real happy but they're more used to the hot weather than me.
Love from Hammer

Kimi Wagner said...

Hi Noah,

Hey, my Mum has been to that park before, to that exact same spot you guys are standing. She can't remember the name, is it called "something Gap". It is northwest of Melbourne. Its lovely there. Mum used to study in Monash Uni in Clayton Vic, so she loves Australia. She's been to a few places traveling around Oz.

Hugs,
Kimi
