Scorpions!!!

Typical Sunset off of the Jetti in Sarteneja.

Rather large toad found in the grass at Wild Tracks. This frog has glands next to its head and when an animal bites the head it secrets poison.

Me swimming with the manatee Twiggy.

This is our favorite swimming place. There is not a soul around.

Look how sweaty I am. We walked into the village from Wild Tracks. It was probably about a total 4-5 miles in 90 degree muggy weather.


Last night we found a rather large scorpion in our cabana bathroom. We ended up killing it, but those suckers are really hard to kill. We stomped on it and stomped on it and it was still alive and we had flip flops on and it came darting right towards us. You can only imagine two girls screaming over a scorpion in the dark. It was quite amusing.
