If you are Jen's friend on Facebook, you've probably noticed that she loves animals. Unfortunately for Jen, she is allergic to most of them.. but this doesn't stop her from getting close to them any chance she gets. We didn't have that many encounters, but here are pics from the few we had.
Bolivia's Pigeons
Ok, maybe not the coolest of animals, but it was pretty cool to have so many of them around us.
Peru's Lamb
Peru is know for its llamas... but it seems Jen prefers lamb. Jen was also luck enough to spot a rare baby spectacle bear on the Inca trail but it ran away too fast for her to catch it.
Nepal's Praying Mantis
During our Annapurna trek, we met a few praying mantis on the side of the road.
India's Baby Camel & Rats
We met our first baby camel here... it followed us around everywhere and was so cute!
Malaysia's Parakeet and Owl
Here we went to the bird park where most of the birds fly free, so you can get up close and personal.
Laos' Elephant
A full day of training to be a Mahout (Elephant Driver), allowed us to make good friends with these elephants.
Bali's Clown Fish
While diving of the coast of bali, look what we found....Nemo's cousin.
Gibraltar's Monkey
At the top of "the rock", there are a bunch of mischievous wild monkeys... in this case, it's prudent to not get too close.
Greece's Octopus
Dom went fishing and caught this octopus with his own hand. Since it was too small to eat, we took a few pictures and then released it.
