Such a gorgeous day!
After our meal together we loaded up in Junior's truck and went out to Henry's farm; well his parents farm.
I've been there one other time and its so beautiful and peaceful!
We adults took a nice hike while the kids grouped up and took their own hike which eventually crossed paths with us.
They have tons of fruit trees on their farm, especially custard apple- well I did try it again today and I really like it. I guess I had a bad one in the past.
We saw the many plantain trees, corn, oranges, limes, jamaican limes, coconuts, mango trees, plum trees, mulberry trees (I ate them until my fingers were purple), jack fruit, and many others that I can't remember.
We also learned about some of the native flora as we walked through their property- seems like we kept finding the the spiny ones.
As I took a picture of the kids across the field; they had some special spectators just up the knoll from them. Henry says that when the cattle are out in the field that snakes never stick around.
Henry let the kids ride his horse that he affectionately calls Ranger. He trained and broke that horse himself. I should have known that if there was a horse on the premises Hannah & Bella would be on it. Henry gave them permission to get the saddle and bridle and Hannah had that horse cinched up in record time and up she went grinning from ear to ear!
