Last weekend I grabbed my rain coat, hopped on a bus and headed off on another adventure to the Slyfox Goat Races!
It was crowded, wet and muddy…
…and the closest I got to actually seeing the goats race was to pose in front of one for a selfie. Yea, not super ideal.
…but, I got to bring along my sister for her very first time at the goat races.
She got wet, and had to eat her snack in the rain…..
…but seeing her squeal and smile when she got to meet some of her favorite animals made it totally worth it!
And we both agreed, the “mascot” had nothing on the real goat racers. Baby P and I were less than impressed.
I mean, just look at those REAL goats run! Impressive!
So yea, rain may have put a damper on the fun, but it was still a fantastic memory to share with my family.
And don’t worry, when I got chilly, Baby P even shared her raincoat with me.
Here’s to hoping next year’s races are a little less damp….because Baby P and I are already begging mom and dad for a goat of our own. My pony Minnow already promised he’d help look after it on the farm. Pppppplllllease!
One of my favorite things at the goat races is listening to the names of all the goats announced over the loudspeakers. My favorite one this year was Baahhhbara. If Baby P and I ever do get that goat we want, what do you think we should name it?
