Attack of the Fijian Iguanas

Attack of the Fijian Iguanas

We visited an “eco park” in Fiji. Just past the entrance was a place where handlers drape reptiles on people (if the people are willing). My son was willing, and end up with three young iguanas decorating him.

Papa Pasku and his Zwaarte Piets pay Bonaire an annual visit

Every year at the end of November, Papa Pasku a.k.a. Sanikolas a.k.a. Sinterklaas a.k.a. St. Nicholas visits Bonaire with his posse of Zwaarte Piets (Black Petes) who will put bad kids in bags and take them to Spain to work in the mines. Or at least that’s one story.
