I remembered when I was still in the 'corporate world', I used to hear some of my clients telling me about their weekend trips to those farms with their children and I've always thought it to be a good idea. For many months now, I've been bugging V to bring us to visit those small local farms but he's always not feeling up to it. To be honest, I've not expected a No answer from him 'cos I've always thought that I'm the one who doesn't like to get all sweaty and caught up in 'dirt' and since I brought it up, he should be more than willing to take the suggestion up.
Anyway, he finally relented today. We've no gathering at my mom's today and with no other programmes planned, I took the topic up with him again. However, though we've planned to leave home at 3pm, Renee's got us delayed because of 'her hair' hahaha.
There are quite a number of farms around the area but 'cos we're setting off late, I've jotted down only 2 locations for the day. We finally left home at past 3:30pm and though V's quite familiar with the area, the farms are situated pretty 'deep in' and thus, it still took us awhile searching for the 1st of our destinations, the frog farm. It's free admission and feeling obligated and also to allow Renee a tiny bit of 'fun', we bought a box of the feeds and proceeded our little unguided tour.
This is the first thing that greeted us when we got into the various ponds area. Walking behind the both of them, I noticed it which thankfully, V had not stepped on(he din even notice it!), else the pic here would be rather gross, hahaha.

We then proceeded to the next on list - Mushroom, Aloe Vera and Cactus Farm, but as informed by someone, the mushrooms are not that visible. In fact, we couldn't see them anywhere, hahaha. Perhaps, it's also because V had found it boring to look at just plants and we didn't manage to stay even that tiny bit longer to search for them. I didn't even have enough time to take any pics of the aloe vera plants...
It was still pretty early by the time we left there and V suggested we try the others along the area and we stopped by a Koi Farm and the aeroponics farm where we were surprised to see mini 'amusement park' with 'merry-go-round', bouncing tent and a train ride.
