A rural adventure

One fine, sunny Sunday morning, my papa brought Claire-claire and mama to the farm. Our first stop was Hollywood Veggies, an organic show farm.

It was a really warm and humid morning and there were lots of mozzies and other creepy crawlies around. See how happy Claire-claire looked.
My papa said that he saw a snake when he was there a week earlier. Snakes! Claire-claire did not want to be put down and my papa had to carry me all the time around the farm.
We retreated to the cool air-con farm cafe where Claire-claire enjoyed my mama's warm fig tea. Then, Claire-claire helped my mama look for the toilet...Left or right?

Next stop. Hay's Dairies.

My mama bought some hay which Claire-claire fed the goats with. Claire-claire now knows that goats really like hay. They kept coming to munch on them. Claire-claire tried saying "Baa, baa, baa!" to the goats, but they ignored me.
And the best part of the visit was yummy, fresh goat's milk which Claire-claire shared with her papa.

Goodbye, goats. Claire-claire will be back again, when the weather is less warm. As for the veggie farm, we want to be back there to have lunch next time..and papa, more fig tea please.
