The area is famous for apple orchards and apple pies. We bought a whole pie (cheaper than by the piece) and it was still ovenwarm. The guys were quiet... REALLY quiet while they were eating the pie so we thought we'd better catch the moment on "film".
Here we are at the Apple orchard. Elijah is pretending to pick an apple. It started off chilly that day- about 14C- quite cold for us! It was hard ot believe this place is only a couple hours away from the mild coast and the Hot desert.
We went down the mountain and found a pumpkin patch / petting zoo/ corn maze. Here are some Mexican cows. I assume they are documented...
We picked a pumpkin here and played with the corn cannon and even found popcorn on the cob. you put it in a paper bag for 3 days and pop it in the microwave. very cool.We were missing fall and the things normally assosciated with Canadian Thnaksgiving. This was a nice blessing! We had thanksgiving chicken (couldn't find a good- whole chicken so bought parts and Shar skewered them together to look like a whole chicken- kinda like a bionic chicken...) and had pumpkin pie, mashed potatoes and gravy. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!
