Mamas & llamas

There's been lots of photos of ponies and horses on here lately so we thought we'd show some llamas. This morning Amber and Penny did some "click and reward" training, a hands-off and reward-based approach to training llamas. Ediza and Zeb, one of Penny's two whippets, were also on hand.


This afternoon we met Penny's family for a Mother's Day lunch at a Chinese restaurant. Just about all the food had some form of meat in it, but we still enjoyed drinking tea and eating sweet custard rolls.

The meal was good preparation for our upcoming trip to China. We have been busy getting ready -- donating things we've accumulated to The Salvation Army, getting packages together to mail home. Still working on selling the car.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!
