| Clark and I went up to Seoul to go to the "Bug Festival" which is open every day of the year. And the name is a little misleading since they had more "other creatures" then they had bugs! |
 |
| On the plus side, there were a ton of snakes to hold! Clark and I LOVED it! Only wish Clint could have come too! |
 |
| Momma ball python! |
 |
| Blue tongued Skink. Sorry the picture is blurry. I was having operator errors with my camera yesterday! |
 |
| Baby snakes! Momma was the first snake Clark held... |
 |
| ...and this was the daddy snake. |
 |
| Then our guide brought out one of the big snakes! This was the first and ONLY time I have ever been to Seoul and not been surrounded by a bazillion Koreans! In face it was just our small group! 4 boys and 2 Mommas! Amazing! |
 |
| I'm happy the snake wrapped itself around my leg and not my neck! Not that I let the guy put the snakes around our necks, even though he tried a lot! |
 |
| This guy looked mean! |
 |
| Beautiful King Snake |
 |
| It was an iridescent black! |
 |
| I was mentioning to my friend that Clint had a Red Tail Boa and the guide said "Red-uh tail Boa?" And went and got this snake! |
 |
| Then he pulled out the GIANT Reticulated Python! |
 |
| He had to get the snake stick because the snake wasn't happy about being uncurled! |
 |
| He said it was 4 meters long so about 13 feet. |
 |
| Man, was it a heavy snake! |
 |
| I couldn't lift it above my knee so I just let it rest there! This was definitely my favorite part of the trip! |
 |
| The 55 year old tortoise. |
 |
| Baby turtles! |
 |
| Jack and Shelby, you have been challenged to create a Meme for this picture! I will post it on my next blog post! |
 |
| This one was a female because of the indented under shell. Seems like the female would need the extra space to store eggs until they are laid. |
 |
| Going with the guide to get a fish to feed the alligator with! |
 |
| Lunch time! |
 |
| Clark got to feed this long neck turtle. |
 |
| Clark was very enthusiastic to hold snakes, spiders not so much! |
 |
| He even showed us how the tarantula makes a web! |
 |
| Stag beetle. |
Here is a video of Clark holding the Stag Beetle. He said, "Uh, how do I get it off?"
 |
| Then the guy started to fish around for something in this dirt pile. |
 |
| Stag Beetle Larva! |
 |
| Gigantic! |
 |
| Corn Snake! |
 |
| Green Tree Python. |
 |
| The only one the guide put a glove on to hold! |
 |
| Giant rodent. |
 |
| Kangaroor Rat. |
 |
| Rabbit! |
 |
| Chinchilla. |
 |
| Clark was explaining that this fish had whiskers like Wesley. It was a catfish! |
 |
| Chipmunks. |
 |
| Skunk! |
 |
| Prairie Dog. |
 |
| Rat. |
 |
| More Turtles. |
 |
| Clark got really comfortable with them! |
 |
| Clark was so comfortable with the turtles that he started to play games with them, like smash their faces into each other. |
 |
| Or pretend they are spaceships. |
 |
| Snapping turtle that attracts fish by wiggling something on it's tongue and then once a fish comes to bit the "worm" it snaps down and eats the fish. |
 |
| Hello human! |
 |
| Car noises were bein made at this point! |
 |
| More vrooming! |
 |
| "Look at it's feet Mom!" |
 |
| These were all made from paper. |
 |
| There was a make up display upstairs! |
 |
| Following the leader. |
 |
| Old Stadium that also has the Fortress Wall going through it. |
 |
| Fortress wall. |
