First stop was a fishing event called "Catch n' Release". I have never seen this at a fair, but what a great idea. They had a huge tank filled with trout. Kids under 12 were allowed to "fish" for 10 minutes in hopes of hooking a fish. Adelina's line attracted so many fish, but we couldn't keep any hooked. The little girl next to us did and Adelina was so excited for her.
Next was having her face painted with 3 flowers and a lot of glitter.
She told me I needed to get one too. So I did.
Then Bapo pointed out one of Adelina's favorite animals...Horses! In this case, tall ponies.
Her pony was named "Mocha".
They had a "milk the cow" event, milking a cow replica (the cow that gave the milk laid peacefully behind the faux cow). Adelina is so brave. She walked right up after a crying 9 year old and showed him how it's done.
A pig "Momma" Adelina said. "Oh how cute...her babies!"
She wanted to "feel" the Momma and I told her only touch what's pressed upon the rails, never put your hand inside a cage. She said the hair was like a brush, not soft at all.
A few goats...
A beautiful Clydesdale horse.
A couple of prize winning roosters...
Precious bunnies...
A John Deere tractor...
And it was time for corn on the cob!
Then it was time to head home.
