Seeing how excited his furry friends were, gave “<strong>JB</strong>”<br />
an idea. He would teach and train <strong>Spot</strong> and <strong>Brodie</strong><br />
to ride with him on the paddleboard.<br />
“<strong>JB</strong>” thought paddleboarding was easier and safer<br />
to learn than surfing and he visioned they could go<br />
on some great adventures together.<br />
<strong>Spot</strong> and <strong>Brodie</strong> jumped and barked with delight<br />
when “<strong>JB</strong>” told them both his idea. It was just what<br />
they imagined, and they could not wait for the<br />
adventures to begin.<br />
“<strong>JB</strong>” loaded <strong>Spot</strong> and <strong>Brodie</strong> in his van and <strong>of</strong>f they<br />
went for their first paddleboard lesson around the<br />
calm waters <strong>of</strong> Sunset Island.

No water to paddle nearby the Pyramids. We were able to hire a<br />
Camel from his owner Amen to pull us over the rocks near the<br />
Pyramids. It took 20 years to build the Great pyramid <strong>of</strong> Giza. It was the<br />
tallest man-made structure in the world for about 3,800 years.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Pyramids required 2.5 million stone blocks to be cut, moved and<br />
positioned. After a long day climbing the pyramids we were very thirsty<br />
and spent the night in a tent outside the pyramid. <strong>Spot</strong> spotted a large<br />
Cobra snake. It scared us all, but luckily the snake did not enter our<br />
tent. We drank lots <strong>of</strong> water under the Hot Egyptian sun to stay<br />
hydrated.

Back in the USA we were invited to be in the Pasadena <strong>Tour</strong>nament<br />
<strong>of</strong> Roses Parade. This was a huge honor! <strong>The</strong> parade was started<br />
in 1890 and included music, performers and elaborate floats. We<br />
made it over the 5 mile route thanks to the skateboard wheels I<br />
was able to mount under the paddleboard decorated with flowers.<br />
<strong>Spot</strong> and <strong>Brodie</strong> barked kindly to the thousands <strong>of</strong> people who<br />
waved to us as we paddled the parade route. <strong>The</strong> 2 hour paddle<br />
was tiring but we had a great time and were treated to a wonderful<br />
lunch at the end <strong>of</strong> parade and met lots <strong>of</strong> fun people from around<br />
the world.
