Ambury Farm


''What are we doing today mum?"I said.''We are going to Ambury Farm,the place where Khaia went to on her school trip '' she replied.
"We are going to show some animals to Cree". I was excited for myself and my baby sister.

It was a beautiful Saturday so we were all excited to go see some farm animals. We had our breakfast and headed out around lunchtime.

When we got there, there were a few people having birthday parties and barbeque's. Cree was excited and couldn't wait to get out of the car.

First animal we saw were rabbits, they had a hot cross bun in their water bowl. I think because it was Easter weekend and the rabbits wanted to celebrate with a hot cross bun. Cree wanted to climb on the rabbits house, mum said no because that's where the rabbits sleep and we don't want them broken.

Next up we walked through where the cows go for milking but there were no milking this season so the cows were back in the paddock. We came across Charlotte the pig and her piglets. They were walking around the trees. Then Charlotte walked up to us. She was so big. There was a piece of paper stuck to the gate. It said''Please do not feed animals or they will get too fat.''

We went to the two goats named Skippy but I cant remember the other ones name. My mum told us not to pat them on the head only their backs because they had sharp horns. Cree was too busy hanging on the gate. There was another goat called Slippy. He was just sitting on the grass minding his own business. He was boring so we moved on to Timmy the Turkey. It said that if his head is red he's scared and if his head is blue he is fine. Cree moved on because she was scared. She went to Bella the horse. There was a big ramp to reach her. She came to me and i patted her on her mane. Time to go to the chickens. I opened the gate and went to the first chicken coop. It had 3 chicks and their mother in there. I saw two eggs in the chicken coop. "Time to leave" dad said.

We went to Henderson Shopping Mall for lunch. My sisters and I had Mcdonalds and mum and dad had butter chicken. We walked around the shopping mall till it was time to leave.

Dad drove us to my nana's in Grey lynn for a visit. We stayed for awhile and had dinner then we came home. What a great day that was. I hope my little sister had fun.
