Our thanks to Penny King for hosting the 2008 AGM over Anzac weekend.

 

AGM weekend 2008.
Saturday 26th April. Twelve llama enthusiasts with ten llamas & their packs gathered for two loop walks along the beach, bush and sand dunes of Bethells Beach on Auckland's west coast.

Penny makes sure the flaming star saddle is securely fitted, before Clar Innis Wind Dancer is led away by Geoff Clark. Robyn Robinson looks on.

After a brief walk through a pine forest, we ventured onto a large sand dune which took us to a freshwater lake just out from the bush.

Being late Autumn, the lake was not warm enough for a swim, but some of the llamas took the opportunity to grab a drink.

This photo could have been taken in a desert. The llamas traversed the scene with great interest and took it all in stride!

After a yum lunch, the group headed along the beach. Weather was great, and the surf crashed loudly on the shore. No llamas went swimming...

Uta from New Plymouth and Max the llama, enjoying the long winding Bethells Beach, originally called Te Henga.

Sunday 27th
The rain arrived today, but it didn't stop taking the opportunity to weigh some of Penny's llamas, using portable scales.
