Chewie @Hua Hin Triathlon 2011, Thailand

[Kimmy & Chewie]

Chewie's dad (my husband) was entered in the Queen's Cup Hua Hin International Triathlon in August 2011.

Hua Hin is a sea-side town about 2.5 hours drive south from Bangkok.

I found a dog-friendly hotel in Hua Hin and took Chewie along to support his daddy.

The triathlon involves a 1.5km swim, 45km bike ride and a 10km run.

Here's Chewie and me waiting by the beach for daddy to come out of the swim leg.

Chewie seems to love playing by the beach. We played fetch while we wait, but it's not very successful 'cos this is what happened.

I throw the ball. Chewie runs after it. Chewie jumps on the ball with both paws to "stop the ball". But what this does is bury the ball deep into the sand so he cannot find it. I'd have to walk over and help dig out the ball.

Drool and sand results in a very messy but always cute doodle.

About 3 hours later, my husband (Right) crosses the Finish Line with Chewie (Center) intow.

Here's a post-race family picture. Chewie, Kimmy and Vack :)
