Baby Moose Goes Peruvian

Baby Moose was on his way from Cusco to Puno today to see the Uros floating islands when he made a stop at this lovely little church in Andahuaylillas. Baby Moose thought the church itself was impressive, including its bautism chapel that had "I baptise you" written in five different languages and the most beautifully painted walls.

However, Baby Moose was most impressed by the shop outside the church that was selling clothing in his size. The sign outside the shop said "Dolls". Baby Moose went in and met many new friends. He was also so impressed by the skills of the Peruvian ladies making these perfectly sized clothing items that he decided to buy himself a little Peruvian beanie - for the affordable price of 5 soles. Baby Moose did not ask whether the beanie was made of 100% alpaca, baby alpaca or a synthetic mix. Baby Moose knows that when he finds a beanie made just perfectly to cover his head he should not ask too many questions. Now Baby Moose can easily mix in the Peruvian travellers crowd. Even more importantly, he will be warm in Puno which gets very cold nights since it's located at the altitude of 3,800 meters.
