Weaving Visit We went to a couple of lama/alpaca weaving spots . At one, they went into great detail on how they clean the fiber (it is a fiber, not wool), how they wash it, dye it (the natural items used for dying the fibre) what the use to modify the colors (salt, lime). This alpaca was in our Hotel lobby. I didnt think it was real and it scared the crap out of me when it moved. We went to so many places, saw so much, learned so much. It's been a wonderful trip.

Everyone communicated with them using Google translate. The guides would record important information and play it back in Russian for them. The father had won a gold medal for weightlifting and had a family business making sausage in Kazakhstan. They appeared to travel alot and have an Alaskan cruise out of Vancouver booked. I recommended they check out doing the Rocky Mountainer train through the Rockies. Memorable quote "Da" David and Camilla - this ...
