Oh! Now I understand the confusion.
No, Alpaca gather in herds. Β Lions gather in prides.

They're sooo cute x3 Wonderful shot, and I lol'd at the pun
Alpacas are prey animal and are naturally very skittish and wary, but when raised by people and around many other animals they adapt very easily, I have a llama that's more than happy to give our farm's little dog kisses through the fence

Were you able to notice the play on words? I only ask because your primary language is French...excusez-moi, Français.

No, can you explain?

I'll try...
"Alpaca" sounds like (if you try hard enough) "I'll pack a...."
So the joke is "Alpaca (I'll pack a) bag, you call a taxi." Which you might say if you were traveling somewhere.
So, we call this a "pun," I guess...a "play on words."

I've got it! You are a very good teacher!
One good "jeu de mots"
π: 0 β©: 1
I have a couple of French expressions for you. Which I made up myself!
1. The discomfort one feels when being dragged along on a shopping trip: Mal de Mall
2. A word meaning constipation: Mal de Merde
Yeah, and I know a real French word which, when spelled backwards, becomes an English word which means essentially the same thing as the French word!
Hint: The French word is plural, the English word is singular.

hmmmmmm! my brain is in vacation now so he doesn't accept to do overtime to quickly solve this enigma...but he's searching...

Take your time, take your time.
Another hint: I'll venture to say that it's a word you see every day!!

Still searching while i am surfing on

I am a bit to stubborn to give up now...but you can wait long...

So there is hope... still searching but i loose my french when writing in english...

Heheh..your typographical error is more like a Freudian slip!
You loose your French when writing in English, which could mean that you hurl it like a weapon. (As in to loose an arrow.)
I like French. Lay it on me!

Not at all, your English is fine.

But anyway, i would need lessons...Face to face, body language is so helpfull...without this, communication code has to be more impeccable

What was the choice of flower this morning?
π: 0 β©: 1
This morning I sent "Kiss Me" by [link]
And "The Queen" by [link]

I couldn't resist to send the "kiss me" to my husband... so beautiful and delicate... hope you don't mind?
π: 0 β©: 1
Why should I mind? I already stole it and sent it to Bee.
When I sent it to Bee she wrote back "Anytime!"
So I went and collected my kiss! Listen: I've been kissing her for almost 44 years, and her mouth is still...well...you know; it still feels just as wonderful as it did in 1965.
Know what else?
She calls me "baby."

You are so sweet with your romantic loving heart... Bravo to radiate it for our own pleasure...

A friend once told me that I am "a romantic sap," which I took as a compliment.
