Cows and Dogs

An amazing thing happened at the beach yesterday. We were playing near the water when a huge herd of playful but dangerous cows charged on to the beach. All excited and prancing around but definitely dangerous for small kids and the lounging tourists. But our concerns quickly turned to amazement when a bunch of stray dogs that until then were vying for our pats suddenly got their act together and charged at the cows ensuring they all kept a safe distance away from us. And that wasn't all. Siddha and Samah had been separated from the rest of us and guess what? There was one dog dutifully standing guard beside them, a lone sentinel away from the rest of the charging soldiers. Truly a surreal experience.
