Peru & Winter 2014
 

Xanadu Farm Alpacas Visits Peru in November 2014
We just returned from Peru and a truly wonderful experience in the altiplano,
visiting the Casa Chapi Orphanage and at Machu Piccu.
Thanks so much to Amanda, Cheryl, Arturo and Mike
for making this one of our most memorable experiences.
Here are a few photos.

Walking over 2 miles at 16,000 feet and watching the ceremonial shearing of the vicuna was a challenge & magical experience.
