We just got back to Singapore yesterday after what was the best holiday the kids ever had. Ok it was basically the only holiday they’ve ever had but they’ve been raving about it non stop. Their eyes light up when they talk about the trip and Kirsten keeps reminding us about all the fun stuff she’s done.
“Yesterday we go see the penguins, remember? So cute right? Remember yesterday we sit the boat, and the boat go SO FAST! I like the boat. And the horse. And the tram. And the birds…”
I’ve still got lots of places to share and pictures to edit so those will be coming up over the next couple of days.
Today though, I bring to you the beauty of Churchill Island. Located right next to Phillip Island, it’s got a Heritage Farm that’s got the cutest cattle I’ve ever seen – Shetland Cattle, otherwise known as furry cattle. By me, at least. The long hair makes them all look like super cuddly soft toys, soft toys with horns that can pepper me with large holes.
During this trip, I’ve grown rather fond of farms. The smell isn’t half as bad as I thought it would be and all the animals are so relaxed all the time, just walking around eating their grass. I think if we lived in a farm, Truett would make a really good cowboy. He walked around exploring the place, petting the animals and blending right in.
And this was the chicken that Tru was chasing but then it decided to turn around and peck him on the hand. So obviously, he backed away from the crazy chicken. When Kirsten saw it, she ran up to the chicken and tried to tell him off, like “no no, you cannot peck kor kor.” The chicken couldn’t care less and tried to attack her as well, so they both turned and ran away from it.
We would have intervened but it was too hilarious to watch.
There were also wagon rides pulled by this beautiful shetland horse. She was so gentle that she ate right out of Tru’s hand. I assume it’s a she because I didn’t see the um, thing that boy horses usually have.
Totally loved the wide open spaces, the wild flowers, the pretty cattle, the wagon rides and the fresh air. But most of all, I loved watching them look like this.
