California Vacation (Part 5)

Just a few miles from our hotel in Pismo Beach was a place called Avila Beach. There is a really neat farm with a petting zoo for the kids, homemade fudge and other goodies, as well as a farmers market type of setting. It was so beautiful!!! They gave Michael a bag of scraps for the animals and he went around and fed every single one. There were sheep, goats, horses, cows, peacocks, chickens, roosters, and pretty much everything else you can think of. The great thing was that they were all so vocal! Michael had never really heard any of these animal noises in real life (just mom's poor interpretation). Every time he fed them they would make their animal noise really loud in his ear. "Baaa" or "Mooo". He got so excited!!! He would even sit on his bottom and stick his feet under the fence and let the goats nibble at his shoes. At the end of our trip to Avila Beach Farm we stopped for some fudge and pie and Michael found some hay stacked up and decided to climb. A couple of older boys came over and played with him. They put him on top of the stack and called him "King of the Hay" and ran around him. He was in HEAVEN! :-)
