On Tuesday, the children went to Beacon Hill Children’s Farm and they had fun petting some goats. The farm originally posted about the visit on their Facebook page but then removed it. Staff were also told they could not take any pictures.
The children also visited Willow’s Beach, which is a popular spot for families in Victoria.
Their parents had a busy day in the Yukon on Wednesday, checking out the MacBride Museum, meeting young people who are taking part in an arts and culture festival and watching a mountain biking demonstration at Montana Mountain.
