Brown Paper Packages Tied up With String

I love presents. Not big flashy ones but little meaningful ones so when a big box arrived from Lima today I was over the moon. Each present wrapped in brown paper and tied with string with a little note from ClareBear explaining their significance and where they were purchased. There was something for Bec and co (I suspect Brasilian footy shirts) a pair of baggy Bolivian stripey pants that only DrummerBoy would have the audacity to wear . . they were quickly souvenired this afternoon and transported to yet another house-sitting assignment . . and a few little lovelies for madre:

Beautiful tapestry from the Pantenal. Small enough for my coffee table
And in the right colours to boot!

Little marble llama from beneath the salt flats for my curiosity corner

Lighter for Adam to encourage explosive activity adorned with Macchu Picchu images

Alpaca socks, yep I'm a dag in winter and wear socks

Alpaca bag which is why this blog is short.
Transferring contents of daggy black leather thing right now!

Peruvian Bull which adorns homes there apparently

Sadly she did not relinquish this hat worn on the Inca Trail
And she threw away her stick
Jem didn't, posted it home!

Now these are a few of my favourite things!
