B and I went downtown to see the festivities and ended up judging a dog costume contest! Yes, it was as cute as you would imagine. Pupdemonium! The Charlotte‘s Web pair & Bob Ross were some of our favorites, but they were all winners. #WholesomeHalloween #dogs #halloween #SantaCruz

At the beach in Moorea today, when this sweet piggy waded right by me & then strolled onto the sand. No one knew where she had come from.
