Today I saw a big monitor lizard. When I got too close, it puffed up its chest and hissed at me. I did get some photos though. 

I also saw coconut palms and banana palms. I got a drink from a coconut: someone chops the top off with a big sharp knife and then you suck up the liquid inside with a straw. It’s clear, like water and doesn’t taste very coconutty!

  1. Hello there, glad you've had a relaxing day apart from facing a monitor lizard. Gary and I read your Drummond blogs today and i thought we had left a comment for you but I don't see it now. He is heavily into motorbikes and was interested in the tuk tuks. We thought we had left a question for you about the ice cream van in the same picture. Is it a motorbike too? Sx

  2. Hello Sonia and Gary, No I didn't see another comment: sorry. I don't think the ice cream van was a tuk-tuk. I'll have a look to see if it's there, when I'm in the Fort. I don't know much about the bike parts of the tuk-tuk. A lot of them have "Piaggi" (I think) on them, but that may just be the body work. More research for me to!
