crocodile encounter

We are part of a great homeschooling group down here. The best part of it is the field trips.  We've been on three already this year with our group and have three more planned before the end of the year.
A couple weeks ago we went down to Angleton to the Crocodile Encounter.  And it lived up to its name.  Our tour guides were Billy and Leonard.  If you have a chance you should go, even if it's just to meet Bud Murphy.

Pot-bellied pigs were the beginning of the tour.

 

This capybara's name is Bud Murphy.  It makes me laugh every time.

 

 

 

They let us go right in the pen with these tortoises.  It was awesome until one ran right into me.

One of our tour guides.  He fed the crocs and gators chicken right from inside the pens.

After that encounter we hit up Sonic and went to the Brazoria County Historical Museum.  The most interesting part of that "museum" was the staircase.
