Abbys, WWII and Goats!!!

On thursday, our day was totally packed, it was like 3 field trips in one!!! First of all we went with a small group of other HS families. 2 start off the day, we drove out 2 Westminister Abby, a beautiful Abby made by monks. Since is was “midday”, we decided 2 stay and watch the midday prayer. All of the monks gather and chant songs, they all sounded like robots due 2 the echo in the Abby. Next the crew hurried 2 Abotsford where we listened 2 a lecture about WWII, Japans side of the story. There was one japanese soldier who kept saying “quick draw” and “Cowboys” 2 a captive Canadian.  Our final activity of the day was a goat farm, yes a goat farm!!! First we went into the barn where all the relatively newborn goats (kids) were kept, they were so cute!!! Then we saw some older goats and the guard dog. after that we saw cheese in the making and the milking station. And before we left we all sampled and bought some amazing goat cheese!!! :)
