I feel for you to have to endure so many earthquakes. I grew up in California but never had to endure so much as you have. I love the photos, the Alpacas hugging and of course all the people.

...I think this hugging is an enchanting tradition. <br /><br />A 7.1 earthquake is significant; we had a 7.1 in California in 1989 when my husband and I were on our honeymoon. I can honestly say that our honeymoon was an earthmoving experience :-)Dutchbabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00844296297519447526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838644232340959537.post-12415177104985380002011-09-07T21:40:34.851+12:002011-09-07T21:40:34.851+12:00wow...30km...you got some stamina.. :)

I'd be off too .. especially if it was so conveniently situated in one long line .. til the hug turned the corner!<br /><br />Love the photos .. thanks - and hoping the quakes lessen .. cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.com
