Cheese Farm Time!

Woo woo, I went to a cheese farm over the weekend (thanks, Annie!) I have to say that it is the closest it has felt like California. Wait till you see the pics. Oh yes, I have better pics this time, thank you very much!

Really, this whole place boils down to one big California. Except you don't have the fake people of L.A. (haha, Angelites, who none of you are. Except AJ. So I can say, suck it!) But really, where I'm staying at reminds me of the Grand Lake area of Oakland, Hillbrow reminds me of Fruitvale, and Ormonde reminds me of Santa Clara + San Jose landfill. So Milpitas :)

The cheese farm was about an hour and a half away and it was just breathtaking. You come down this road and all of a sudden you see the Magaliesburg (Ma-ha-lees-berg) Mountain range and in front, a lake (they call it a dam, but if they wiki it up, they'll find that a damn is actually a structure built to hold back the water. The water behind it is either a reservoir or a lake. Just FYI, you Afrikaans! :) )

Hey, I'm heading to Rustenburg for the weekend. Why, you might ask? England - USA baby. That's right, I will be taking pictures and blogging after the game. Go USA!

PS, The previous contest is still running. Don't make me threaten another vuvuzela on you.

Ok picture time!!!!

Here's the cheese farm. See? Much better pics this week, now that I'm not 100 feet into the ground. A little disappointed that the place wasn't made of cheese. But I digress. . .


And this is the view looking out from the cheese farm. Now without the vineyards, can't you imagine yourself in Sonoma County?


Getting the boring non-people pictures out of the way first.


Ahhh here we are. These are Annie's friends. Oh, Annie is a coworker of mine. A very wonderful girl who's extremely smart and funny (Annie you can pay me the 100 rand tomorrow). This is Tonya and Nasreen (and I know I'm going to have to edit this).


This is Annie. She's showing off her NEW TATTOO!!! I feel like I should be on The Price is Right every time I say NEW TATTOO! COME ON DOWN!!!!! Yay, it's a snowmobile! Just what I needed for my cottage at Lake Havasu City.


Yep, here I am, enjoying the sunshine.


So they had quite a few lazy goats on the farm. I'm guessing they milk these goats to make the cheese. The cheese, by the way, was scrumptious.


So the goat finally decided to get up, but only after some girl started feeding it lettuce. God, that reminds me of Will. Lazy until you have food. Then all bets are off.


And here are the pigs. Not quite sure what they do with them. None of their food items had bacon on it. Mmmmmm, bacon.


Here I am chasing after a cock.


And here's this kid of the farm that Annie told me to take a picture of. I think it's because of his South African face paintings. I still cannot understate this enough. This is one crazy patriotic nation right now.

So that's it from this weekend. Enjoy the week and I'll be back with you later if anything exciting happens.
