ReplyDeleteAn Iguana Park! My kids would love that :-)
ReplyDeleteThat creeps me out.
ReplyDeleteYou know Fi would be in heaven with all those Iguanas. Mac on the other hand would look on from afar.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Jb
That's so cool that you could walk around amongst them!
ReplyDeleteThis is a park and a sanctuary for the Iguanas. It is surrounded by city traffic and city hustle and bustle. The Iguanas are wild not tamed at all. The peeps loved going here the last time we were in Ecuador. They had named a bunch of them and this time came back to see if they could find some of their favorites. One in particular they named Pentatail because....you guessed it...he had 5 tails. We often saw them fighting with each other I guess to show who was the most macho. The last time we were there, one relieved himself from up in the trees and it just happen to land on Baby Peep. He won't let me post those pictures. Let me tell you...Iguana poop stinks!!! I hope you enjoyed this installment of WW!
