A host having multiple IP addresses is not "anycast". That is old-fashioned 
multi-homing.

Anycast is a single IP that resolves to the closest physical host 
(routing-wise).

Google's public DNS (8.8.8.8) is anycast, for example. Sadly neither they nor 
Cloudflare nor any of the other large-scale anycasters seem to offer public NTP 
via anycast.
