Vlog trip to Coombs Old Country Market. Will we see GOATS?
While visiting my parents out on Vancouver Island. My mom took us to a popular country market in Coombs, BC. They are known to have Goats on the roof. They sell all sorts of food things, so it was great for me! We had lunch there and picked up a few items to bring home. We did end up seeing goats, but not on the roof.

Wikipedia:
Coombs is a small community on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, situated on provincial highway 4A approximately 10 km (6.2 mi) west of Parksville. Coombs is home to approximately 1,327 people and is renowned for its Old Country Market (which features a family of goats living on the roof), Butterfly World (which includes a small indoor tropical rainforest), and the Coombs Bluegrass Festival held every B.C. Day weekend.
The history of Coombs goes back many years. The Ford House which is the old log house situated on the old Island Highway is dated back to early 1900. The house was completed in 1911. Next to the Ford House is the old General Store which also houses the General Post Office. The Fair Grounds is an active place in the summer when the Fall Fair rolls around. The Rodeo Grounds just up the highway heading towards Port Alberni is a successful and active place during the summer months. The railway is also a huge part of the history of Coombs. Along with the United Church and just over the French Creek Bridge is the French Creek School which is now closed as a public school was a huge asset to the community for over 100 years.
