It was only a 40-minute drive from the Inner West, so not major trek for them. They arrived by 9.30am with the heat already in the mid-twenties. Thankfully, Adrienne had covered the boys with sunscreen, hats and sunnies.
Jarvis was the leader for the day and opted to visit the baby animal section first, where they saw baby piglets, lambs, chicks, calves and kids, which I think is the correct term for a baby goat? Apparently Felix spent the whole time in the baby animal barn trying to catch a chicken!
Then it was off for a pony ride, with Jarvis telling anyone who would listen that he was a cowboy. Talking of cowboys, he was VERY impressed with the cowboys on site, who gave an amazing demonstration of their lasso skills.
Then the whanau took the tractor ride around the grounds, so that they could check out some more animals, which also included some native ones too, such as kangaroos and koala. From the tractor ride, it was straight into the cafe for a cooling ice block, before heading home. All in all, they spent about 4-hours at The City Farm and Adrienne says that anyone with Little People should go check it out.
