Although the Napo River had pirhanas, these were not pirhanas!

Max saying “hello” to a tortoise at an animal sanctuary

These were all injured & rescued animals of the jungle

Toucan

Aunt Claudia getting ready for white water rafting in the pirhana infested Napo River. According to the guide, the pirhanas are well fed so they don’t tend to bite people! Max went white water rafting in Wallace’s lap just to be safe! :-)

We went to a Butterfly Garden in the nearby jungle town of Ahuano (about a 15 minute walk from the hotel)

We sat down for a minute before our guide came to take us into the butterfly garden & in seconds Miss Em was asleep on Papa Dave’s lap

Gorgeous butterflies!

The butterfly was attracted to the cardinal on Charlie’s shirt

Alex hot, tired & trying to remain still so a butterfly would land on him too

Emily’s 1st day back @ Little Oak Preschool as a Green Frog.  She is going two 1/2 mornings per week.

Max gives Emily a hug

Welcome Green Frogs!  Emily will be following in Max’s footsteps as a Green Frog (one of the 3 year old classrooms).

The cute green frog on the front door

There are 3 Emily’s in The Green Frog classroom so they have to differentiate therefore Emily C.

The class pet … a turtle!

Her name is Princess Shelly

Emily points to Princess Shelly.  She is a snapping turtle therefore the tape on the top of the cage.  Not the greatest pet choice!  :-)   LOL!
