Iguana Adventure

We went to lunch in the park today and had hamburguesas y papas fritas francés - very good. Same toppings and general flavor as your ball park burgers.

The unfamiliarity came with the little creatures that are obviously used to being fed scraps!





Elkin was a little scared... Stacy was really scared! Elkin put his legs up on my chair as they got close. He was afraid they'd bite him. No one else was feeding them so we certainly didn't. First it was just one and then it got closer and then it got even closer. I think he signaled to his buddies at that point that we might be suckers for hungry lizards so one by one they kept coming. At one time there were five or six surrounding our table!

A park ranger just walked by and they all scattered. They must regularly chase them off.

It was very cool though. We're still on the lookout for the monkeys (though we think we saw one a few days ago) and a sloth. Personally, I'm looking very forward to seeing a sloth. Weird animals.

We had another post today too about our swimming trip so if you didn't see it just scroll down.
