\nOne of our favorite Fair traditions: bringing some of the Farm into downtown Los Angeles!
\nEarly morning riders at Union Station were surprised by some of our favorite animal friends: lambs, kids (baby goats), chickens and miniature pigs when they entered the train station today.
\nWe set up shop inside, where passengers were getting ready for the daily morning commute.
\nSky Shivers, the Fair’s resident cowboy and some of his friends also came along to help take care of the animals, and to chat with curious visitors.
\nAfter hanging out for a couple hours with passengers, we all hopped on the Metrolink train and headed back to the Fairgrounds. (P.S. You can take Metrolink to the Fair on the weekends! Click here<\/a> for more info.)
\nThanks to everyone who decided to Dare To Fair with us in downtown this afternoon! It’s always fun to meet new friends \ud83d\ude42 Here are some more pics from this morning:
