Crocodile Bank





Before summer break we took a quick trip down to Crocodile Bank in the middle of May. This is a park..you guessed it full of crocodiles! It was not quite like our zoos as it seem like it would be far too easy for a crocodile to get out or a human to get in the pen. Kind of scary. But it was amazing to see all the different species of crocodiles. The funnest part was holding a baby crocodile. The crocodile pens were full of white feathers which I assumed were chicken feathers but a friend later told me white birds would land and get gobbled up! Of course the joke for the day was we went to Crocodile Bank and didn't even make a withdrawal at the ATM!!

Life in Illinois has been crazy. It seems like there is so much going on yet when my friends tell of their kids summer sports schedule we have it easy! It just seems like there has been stuff to do around the house, shopping to get done and friends and family to visit. Ted only has a little over a week left in the US. Before I know it the kids and I will boarding the plane back to India! This weekend we are heading to a family get together at my brother Scott's house in Southern Illinois. It is an annual tradition and will be a blast.
