Powered by Chicken (not sausages).
So we finally did it! - Dad and mum and me finally climbed up Scafell Pike, so that means the biggest one is now ✅ off the list. This post is called powered by chicken because we have found out that I am probably allergic to sausages ‘cos of them being full of eyelids and bum holes and sawdust and stuff - so have gone “grain free” for a bit. Usually I don’t go in for treehugging faddy diets - but I have to say that I feel amazing 🐶as you will see from my pictures.
Anyway back to the adventure. Saturday 18th January - We went up Scafell Pike from the car park in Wasdale. It’s the classic route - but a good sensible move in January when the weather is so changeable because, according to my dad, “you’d have to be a right muppet to get lost”. It’s steep but steady all the way up the footpath (mum said “ footpath, huh - more like a stone staircase!”). When we got to the hollow stones we hit the snow line - and then it was ace!! I did eating snow and sliding on snow and falling ( On purpose) in snowdrifts up to my tummy and everything!! 🐶. When we got to the very top there was about a hundred people taking selfies and hardly anyone was having a picnic for me to help wiv - and also it was VERY windy and cold - so we decided not to hang about. We jumped off the top and I flapped my ears and mum and dad held onto my tail and we flew all the way to the bottom 🐶!! Only joking, we zoomed down though and had an ace picnic in the car park. I hope you like the video from near the top - look out for my dad’s hat flapping in the wind !!
