Arguably, one thing most people can agree on is just how much fun it is to hang out with animals. Animals, after all, always seem so happy to see us. Next time you’re trying to figure out a fun day trip the whole family will love, set off for WestPark Alpaca Farm near Pittsburgh.
Meet a furry flock of alpacas - and other friendly animals - at WestPark Alpacas in Slippery Rock, just under an hour from downtown Pittsburgh.
