And the Oscar goes to...

Today is the Oscars. I’m kind of nervous because one Peruvian film is nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film category in this 82nd Academy Awards. "The Milk of Sorrow" (La Teta Asustada) already won some awards for best movie in the film festival of Berlin, Havana, Bogotá and Guadalajara, but the Oscar Award could be an exciting thing for my people in Peru.

The Milk of Sorrow was written and directed by Claudia Llosa and the main actress is Magaly Solier. Here below is the film poster with a little retouching.

Day Tripper

Yesterday the weather was perfect! My masters took me to this wonderful place called Quiet Waters Park Dog Beach in Annapolis, Maryland.
I saw a lot of dogs walking with their humans, others chilling on the grass having a picnic, and more doggies were at the beach too. I just met some of them for a few seconds…I really like to be by myself sometimes.
I walked, ran, and swam a little bit.
My master threw the ball in the water; we were playing fetch. They promised that we will return soon.
Before heading back home, we stopped at a seafood market, where my masters bought some delicious jumbo lump crab cakes. They even gave me some nibbles… yummy! Here are some pictures.

Ayer, el clima fue perfecto! Mis masters me llevó a este maravilloso lugar llamado Quiet Waters Park Dog Beach in Annapolis en Maryland.
Vi a varios perros caminando con sus humanos, otros descansaban en el césped disfrutando de un picnic y mucho más perritos estaban en la playa también. Conocí a algunos de ellos por unos segundos... Me gusta ser sola a veces.
Yo camine, corrí y nade un poco.
Mi master tiraba la pelota al agua, y yo se la traía de regreso. Ellos me prometieron que vamos a regresar pronto.
Antes de regresar a casa, nosotros paramos en un mercado de mariscos, donde mis maestros compraron deliciosos crabcakes (como una torta/hamburgesa de cangrejo). ¡Ellos aún me dieron algunas mordidas… delicioso!. Aquí algunas fotos.
