LOL at Bob's cat. Priceless. Here's my adult son and his best friend. I just love how the dog has his paw over my son's hand. They wrestle and fight and chase each other, but apparently love each other dearly.

I was on a bus tour of the northern end of Trinidad a couple of years ago, and the last stop of the day was the Asa Wright Nature Center that Jim showed. However since we had run late on several of the previous stops on the tour, we had literally 10 minutes at the Asa Wright Center. Arrival: 2:38 P.M. On the viewing patio of the nature center: Seeing Birds: As well as a two-foot long lizard and a mountain crab And back on the bus ready to leave at 2:47 P.M. We then had to race back to the ship halfway across the country by 4:00 P.M. or be penalized. We first had to wend our way down out of the mountains ... and drive halfway across the the country... In traffic like this... right at the time school had let out ... and managed to reach the ship at 4:00 and 13 seconds! The trip was one of the best on our month-long voyage around the Caribbean, but I really thought we'd die or crash or at least kill some school child on the manic race back to the ship.

OMG the color of that water, Jodi! You captured all the different hues! No, they are pulling them from the summer growth ponds and moving them for the winter. That fish will sell (if she is for sale) for several thousand dollars, probably 5 figures. The serious end of the hobby is not for the faint of heart or light of wallet!! LOL!!!

mare_wbpa.....Thank you! My grandmother had some some pieces unique to that part of the world....:0) I understand they still make this teapot with the lidded spout. :0) It's put directly into an open fire to heat water.
