School holidays are the perfect time for connecting and catching up with friends and family. This morning we visited Landsdale Farm, Perth W.A. with my sister, two cousins who are sisters and eight children between the ages of 1 and 16. The summer sun didn't let us down but there are plenty of trees to shade under and we quickly took possesion of a rather lovely table and chairs nestled under a huge tree. We were soon joined by a scrawny looking chicken who was pecking around hopeful for morning tea scraps. Planter pots filled with herbs were labelled and we picked leaves to smell chocolate mint, oregano and lemon thyme. There were two donkey brothers who free-ranged around the grounds, over-friendly sheep and a blind horse. The territorial turkeys were not the favourite of the day but slightly more hospitable were the goats, one of which looked pregnant but we were informed she didn't lose the 'fluid' after her last pregnancy - one can relate and sympathise!! We shared lunch under the big tree and even the teenagers agreed it wasn't too hard being peeled away from ipods, ipads and I.T!!
