Olympic Game Farm, Sequim, Washington

Oh Spring Break, how I've not missed you.  This is the week where most of our friends go on boring vacations to Hawaii, Mexico, Arizona and other not even worth mentioning places.  We stay home. This year the kids, at least 2 of 3, did a soccer skills camp.  That went over well.  It dumped on them.  I mean dumped.  Did I pick them up early?  Nope.  Getting drenched and freezing so much you can't bend your legs builds character.  I did bring them hot cocoa when I picked them up.  I'm not that mean.  Sheesh.  Anyway, I might have been feeling a little mommy guilt.  Which means ROAD TRIP!  But, not too far.  We can't even drive to Safeway without arguing. We loaded up in the car and headed to Sequim, Washington.  Pronounced Skwim.  It's a little town popular with retirees.  Cute, but little.  We had lunch at a little diner and then headed to the farm!  This wasn't just a farm.  It was a drive thru safari.  In Washington.  We saw bears, deers and buffalo OH MY!  And lots of other things that don't fit in the saying.  Each kid got a loaf of wheat bread that they were able to feed to the animals.  Our kids decided to feed most of their bread to the stupid seagulls.  We don't get out much.  



If you're not paying attention, they'll just help themselves.


Falcon?  What ever it was, it was HUGE!


Road block.



The bears had so much personality.  Rumor has it that some of these have been in movies.





It's very comforting seeing these guys walking your way.
I'm sure that if they wanted to they could have gotten in and grabbed their own bread.



Pretty, right?



This was funny.  The screams coming from these cars were echoing through the whole park.




The tigers were behind fences.  More than one.


Beauty.



Um, who would even think not to 'Stay In Your Car'?
Nobody in this one.



That's just not nice.
