Hobbitses and Lambses



We went on a tour to see what was left of the shire, (where they filled the hobbit scenes for Lord of the Rings). New Line Cinemas was supposed to destroy all the sets, but it rained for too long and was too dangerous for the wrecking crews so they left some and then people started the tours. It was filmed on a working lamb farm so at the end of the tour we got to feed baby lambs and watch a sheerer take a little lamby's coat off. It was pretty cool.

Lucy feeding the lambs. She kept saying "I want one of those."

When Christian heard you were going to New Zealand, he said, "Cool--they can go see Lord of the Rings stuff!" Seriously, you really did! How cool!
