The Daughter got to make a small pouch out of alpaca fur - a really interesting procedure. Too bad it was so crazily hot... +37 and absolutely no wind. We were melting away and felt sorry for the alpacas who had fur...

Alpaca farm field trip
Last weekend we headed out to a local alpaca farm - the first field trip with the Swedish School. Not sure how common alpacas are in general in California (to me they're something you encounter in South America rather than North America - but maybe I'm wrong). I had never seen any so it was a fun experience. You could go in to the enclosed field where they kept them and say hello and they were really friendly and let you pet them.

Vad söta de är!
Anna - de var otroligt söta - stora, tänkande ögon (eller tja, vad vet jag, men det såg ut så i alla fall haha) och jätte ulliga... Dottern grät när vi skulle gå hem... hon ville stanna i hagen... Vi ville mest in i den luftkonditionerade bilen - för det var så fasansfullt hett...
