Shoo North Village Farmers Market


This is less like what I know as a Farmers Market and more like a park, meets tourist action, meets children's playground, meets petting zoo.   It's a beautifully landscaped park and right on my door step. 


We got to sample some local beef straight of the carcass and also meet a cow who was swept away 10 years ago during a very serious typhoon. The farm was flooded and all but one cow drowned. This one cow swam his little heart out down the rivers and was found later on a small island about 80km south of where he had started. Amazing. I feel bad for eating the other cow now. Actually, not I don't. It was very tasty.
