Good group, and a wet one. The whole monte is flooded; even the "land bridge" access road behind the shripmery is impassable on anything but foot now. Monkey was a dream, and enthusiastic without being out of control. She swam a LOT, as did most of them (Ginger the least, naturally). We didn't hit the beach at all. We went the usual route to the intersection (completely flooded), then went across the first set of charcos and turned south, where there were a ton of flamingos. We went all the way around the southern loop, and came back via the shire, which was COMPLETELY FLOODED; the swimming hole was well over all of the dogs' heads, and you couldn't even see the trail for 50m. Everyone had fun.
