I held a sloth today, oh booooooooy!

OMG holding a sloth is the most miraculous and amazing thing I might have ever done!  A fabulous touring day with guide Penny Millsaps, recommended by Jim and Ayla Douglas who met her on their cruise this year, who took us to see monkeys, iguanas and a few sloths, this guy, Sid, the sire to six daughters with two wives.  One happy buggah! 

Soña Holman holding Sid! 

And me with my baybeeeee.  omg I just cannot explain the feeling I got holding this wild animal that hugged me and loved being scritched, and didn't smell or make any noise.  It was a truly amazing day... Followed by these guys (I plan to paint some of my photos )

Mermaid pinata!!!!

All these beautiful nature events were followed by a snorkeling adventure that blew our minds.   Wow.  Love the barrier reef here, myriad tropical fish, a million types of coral.  Amazing and fabulous!!!,
