The Alpacas of AN Explore the Heart of AN!
Our new Alpacas of AN have been busy becoming familiar with their new home. We never know where they will appear. Antu’s name has been changed to Tawa since it goes better with Nima. (Tawa is the Hopi word for Sun and the Tibetan word for Moon, while Nima is the Hopi word for Moon and the Tibetan word for Sun.) This seems perfect for the Heart of AN!
The alpacas are still quite shy and can’t be approached, but they are easily herded back into Alpaca•Wasi in the evenings. Emanaku has already mastered this task and now can add, “Alpaca Herder” to his resumé.
The past two weeks have been rather full! We have had two sets of visitors ~ the first for five days and the second set for a week. All were with people whom we’ve wanted to come here for a long time. It’s been highly enjoyable on a very personal level.
We are also in the midst of creating our new organic vegetable garden with the help of Roberto and Pedro. So far, it’s quite unique!
Pedro’s small son Alexander returned on Sunday night after being away for two weeks. All of us missed him a lot, (especially Pedro!) Last week, we went to the local school with Pedro and his wife Cecilia and finally got Alexander accepted into the kindergarten. It was a great breakthrough! Alexander is so happy to be back here and loves his new school and the new backpack which Emanaku bought him.
We are also busy preparing for our Special Events in May. Our Spanish translator just had to cancel for health reasons, so we are seeking a new one ~ someone who is really meant to be here. And we have two last minute spaces available, so if you are called to come…..
With huge LOVE from the Heart of AN!

- The Alpacas of AN have been busy exploring their new home.
-
- Here they are at the AN•Chakana!
-
- Nima has a strong personality like our cat Luna and is curious about everything.
-
- You never know where they will appear next! Here they are outside the bathroom window of AN•Wasi.
-
- Work is progressing on our new vegetable garden which we’ve decided to make in circles of raised beds.
-
- Cachorro is the King of his Castle when he is in Cachorro•Wasi. And he has a great vantage point from his own little hill.

We decided to change Antu’s name to Tawa. This is because Tawa is the Hopi name for Sun and the Tibetan name for Moon. This goes better with Nima which is the Hopi name for Moon and the Tibetan word for Sun.
Tawa is on the left. And Nima is on the right. Last week, Pedro’s wife Cecilia paid us a visit and made the earrings and necklaces for our alpacas which made them look so cute. But Nima has already managed to lose both of her earrings!

- Can you find the Alpacas of AN inside the Fairyland of AN?

- Walking across the land with two special visitors last week. We had a very precious time together. But since they wish to remain anonymous on FB, even if you recognize them, please don’t mention their names.
-
- We are about to walk the AN•Labyrinth with last week’s special visitors. And look who are resting in the background!

CUTENESS OVERLOAD!
Tawa and Nima doing more exploring. They always stay together, wherever they go. And we are already seriously considering getting two more!
-
- Two days after our special guests left, two more special guests arrived! Karl-Heinz of Germany is an old friend of Emanaku’s. He brought us an authentic German scythe for Pedro to use to cut the grass!
-
- Last Sunday on the New Moon, we visited the amazing Inca site of Moray with Karl-Heinz and his wife Kornelia. Moray was super sparkly and welcoming!
-
- Kornelia and Karl-Heinz loved it here.
-
- Moray is one of my very favorite places in the world! It has such a deep sense of No-Time.
-
- The rocks jutting out of the undulating walls of Moray are Inca stairs used to get to the next level.
-
- Afterwards, we went to the Sunday Market in Chinchero to find some hidden treasures.
-
- Our vegetable garden is beginning to look a bit strange at this point, but I’m sure that it will be beautiful when we are done.
-
- Emanaku and Karl-Heinz also found time to do some computer work together. They have been friends for twenty-three years!
-
- Yesterday, we enjoyed lunch at our nearby restaurant Viva Peru, especially the home-made strawberry – basil – black pepper and chocolate ice cream!
-
- Tawa and Nima love being at the Tower of AN and feel so natural here.
-
- They often like to sit down facing opposite directions.

Since we were finally able to get him into the local kindergarten here, Alexander has returned. We are all so happy that he is back!
This morning, Pedro proudly walks Alexander to school wearing his new backpack.
