Now the bad part was I was so busy watching Pua I missed our turn back into the park somehow. So rather than go back and possibly miss it again and maybe walk at least 4 extra miles to the ranger station we walked around the long way back to the park a couple extra miles. We actually tired Pua out for a change. I carried her part way but she would squirm and pinch me through the carry bag so would let her walk. Cutting through the tall grass on a last short cut into the park she said that was good enough and lay down so back in her bag and no more squirming. One very tired little lady. I felt bad but she was fine just slept a lot that night.
