The Royal Winter Fair

John and I had a great time at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair today. It has lots of elements of the Fall Fairs that we experienced in our youth. 

The vegetable competitions for instance  

with the giant pumpkins and squashes 

 and tubers.

This gent was great at presenting his collection of exotic animals. 

The Future of Agriculture won first prize in butter sculpture. 

I liked this charming, standing pig. 

John said this sweet sleeper reminded him of me during one of my afternoon naps. Animal pleasure.

These young men were presenting prize sheep for their photoshoots. 

Don't you love sheep heads and faces?

 Does anybody know the answer? I didn't check. Is this a trick question?

I caught farmers leading their cattle to waiting cattle trucks.

It was the last day of the Royal Winter Fair after all. 

These young ladies were in love with this patient pony. 

 As always we found lovely steeds and riders in the Horse Palace.

After a lovely visit, I led the way home through the Prince's Gate and along Coronation Park.
