Goats, goats, and more goats!

Surfing Goat Dairy

Happy New Year!  I finally decided to get off my butt and start taking pics again!  Anyways, I happened to open up a groupon email and I saw an offer for Surfing Goat Dairy.  I looked at a few pictures and I was hooked!  I somehow got Jalna to come with me, she wasn't very thrilled at the idea but she's a trooper.  She ended up researching omiyage places and I guess it was worth her while :) We spent the whole day in Maui...and I mean the WHOLE day.  We took the 6 am flight in and were supposed to take the 6:53 flight out.  We got bumped 4 times at the airport  (we were on standby) so we didn't fly out till 9:30 that night.  That's a whole other story.  It was pretty entertaining...

Surfing Goat Dairy is up in Kula, good thing I had the GPS cause I woulda got lost I think.  It's a cute farm with a bunch of goats, and they make AMAZING cheeses!!  Dude.  I hate stinky cheese.  Blue cheese, bleh!  Goat cheese, bleh!  Until now...their cheese has no smelly goaty aftertaste like others I've had in the past.  Along with the tour they have a small taste testing and we were verrrrry weary to try because we both don't like stinky cheese.  After one bite we were pleasantly surprised, they were delicious!  If you happen to go, Ole was the one I bought.  It's out of this world.  It has a small jalapeno kick to it.  Randy loved it!

Ok, back to the goats....

This is Pepito!  I just loved him.  Isn't he one handsome buggah?  Is that why they call them goatees?  Hmmm....
