Day 49 Myella Farm stay

Myella Farm

Day 49

6:30am - bus to Myella. Myella is a farm stay place that I booked through the jostel last night. Got there in the morning and today I rode a horse called Trigger. Was trotting along but I don't know what I'm doing.

Later that day we got to go on the motorbikes. This is more my thing! There was a speed limit of 35km per hour, but once I passed my little test and deemed good enough to ride around the farm I got it over 60km per hour. Loved it!

Later that day I was about to start driving on my own again but when I started the bike fell on me. Luckily no one saw.

There was a man in charge of the farm. He had one eye. The other eye was missing and his eyelids had folded inwards but were slightly open. When the normal eye blinked, the eyelids of the other blinked a little too.

In the afternoon, I fed some chickens and milked a cow.

At the farm they had 2 parrots too. One they rescued from a fence and it had half a wing on one side. It was a bit manky. The other bird was the most ugly bird I have ever seen in my life. It had beak and feather disease. It couldn't fly but just walked around the dining area and in and out of its cage. Some people said it was cute, they must have been crazy. Look at this-
