This is a story dance about the regular walk I take with my dog Mhairi, a yellow labrador, at Rainbow Haven Beach, Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia.

  • 1–8: Mhairi and I wend our way down the trail to the long sandy beach.
  • 9–16: We see the sparkling waves rolling onto the shore.
  • 17–24: Sea gulls, piping plovers, and sandpipers work their way along the tide’s edge, seeking the breakfast treasures brought by the Atlantic Ocean.
  • 25–32: We often meet other dogs and owners, greeting old friends and making new ones.
  • 33–40: It’s time to go home, but we promise each other to return again.
