Royal Winter Fair 2013

Back at the Fair, after three years! Nothing like the heart warming smell of poop on a chilly day.

There was a lot of meandering -through the crowds of farm folks, enthusiastic children and adults, and the many stalls( either for or of the animals). There was also a lot of food sampling, and some amount of drawing...



The fair seemed a bit smaller- there were no chicken and turkey to be seen. I missed those colourful fellows in the rows of tiny little cages...

Farm fresh cheese and fruits...there was a new kind of apple sliced up for tasting. I don't remember what it was called, but the lady was very impressed with my apt description of its taste as a combination of the flavours of 2 other kinds of apples.


'Sassy' the cow's got the whole world on her back...

Doesn't the pattern on her back remind you of continents on the white expanse of the sea?
