Holy crocs! While these pictures weren’t taken in the area of my boat ride, as Doodle says “Crocodiles are like cockroaches, if you see one, it means there are hundreds.”
Don’t get me started on the cockroaches.
I am still trying to get caught up on posts from my parents’ visit and Brooke’s visit, and realized I never posted these crocodile pictures. Also, I had a full day at the internet café today, so I have been able to upload pictures while I work to get a lot more blog entries posted.
You know, you people are really exhausting with your blog demands!! As a reminder, I have a full time job and am trying to learn Spanish. Only kidding, I love that you enjoy the blog so much and it is a lot of fun to tell you all the stories.
These pictures were taken from a bridge about half way to San Jose… the river below is notorious for crocodiles. It really was amazing to watch the crocodiles; while most of the time they were just hanging out on the shore, when they did decide to move they would just totally disappear in the water. And I mean disappear.
This is reason 3,476 why I don’t like to enter water where I can’t clearly see my feet once in the water (thus also being able to see anything else that might be around me). You can also add sharks, water moccasins and jellyfish to that list, in no particular order.
What was also amazing is that there were cows living just feet from the crocodiles. I think someone should have a little chat with the farmer…clearly he is not making the soundest decisions. I wonder how much time he spends looking for the “lost cows?”
For the record, while the brown muddy water is not particularly tempting anyway, in the “I’d rather” game, sign me up for the zip line! Especially if it was the preschool zip line that Brooke and Stef went on.
Anyway, enjoy the crocodiles and this “courtesy blog” until I have time to write the postings for the pictures I uploaded today…but I promise good things to come.
