Saanich Fair in the Sunshine

I know, I know.... it has been a few weeks since my last blog post.  No excuses except for being busy at work and so I am playing catch up. 

At the beginning of September, our little family headed to the local Saanich Fair.  It turns out that this fair is one of the oldest in Canada and this year it was celebrating its 145th year.  The Saanich Fair included a number of farmyard animals, agriculture equipment, musicians, entertainers and even pie-eating contests.  Our visit coincided with beautiful sunshine and Sam was fascinated by the various animals - horses, chickens, ducks and cows, as you can see by the photos.  However, the key highlight for Sam was the orange coloured tractor - he didn't want to leave the drivers seat!
