In February our friends the Platts, from Groton,
came to visit.
While Julie and I took the boys to the butterfly
(and bug) garden, Halsey and Artie hit the coffee
farm for a tour. They came back pretty well
caffinated and with a large stick of sugar cane
for hte boys to sample.



The Platts went out to Selvatura for an afternoon
of Zip lining, or a Canopy Tour, as they call it
here.
I wish Oren could get a season's pass...he's done it so
many times!



Alex and Gordon clearly were communicating
with the Boa.



Our guide at the Serpentaria let us play with a lizard.
He went outside and picked about 5 flower
blossoms.



The lizard's skin was very soft and his
claws were very gentle.
