Llama Fest

We finally made it to Llama Fest!  We've heard about this event for a few years now so it was fun to go see what it was like.  We had a really good time seeing llamas walking around, taking pictures, enjoying the live music, watching the llamas go through the obstacle course and racing, and of course feeding and petting the llamas.

The festival was held at the Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, so it was also fun to enjoy the architecture of the building and see some of the cool animals on the grounds, such as koi, macaws, peacocks, and zebu.

Feeding a llama a combination of granola and cut up carrots.
Jack said this was his favorite part of Llama Fest.

Lots of people were sporting llama t-shirts,
but only one person donned a llama head.

One of the requirements of the obstacle course was that the llama walk into and out of a big van.
Supposedly they were trying to see how good the llamas would be at packing, which requires
that the animals get in and out of vehicles as they are transported to and from their packing destinations.

Apparently zebu like the same food llamas like.
Cat had this one eating out of the palm of her hand.

Here I am with my buddy, Cloud.

Eliza bought herself a fan and has been enamored with it ever since.
When I kissed her goodnight last night, she was sleeping in one of Ben's
t-shirts and she had her arms pulled inside the shirt.  I asked her what her
favorite part of the day was and she said getting her fan was her favorite part.
"It's so big!" she added, as she pulled the fan out of her shirt.

After almost three hours of Llama Fun, it was time to leave.
Namaste, Krishna Temple.
