Animals around Lombok
First there is the lizard. Then there is the goats. The babies are so cute. Next is the birds. They're tiny! Then there is the horses which connect to wagons with a top which are named cidomos. They are for transport. Now it's time for the sea animals around Lombok. First one is the jail bird fish. Strange name?! That's what my mom calls it. Next is the tiny jelly fish. You can hear them. It hurts when they shock you.Then there is the stone fish-most dangers fish. I saw one!!Then there are the parrot fish. Their bill looks like a parrot's. Last but not least is the electric blue fish but they're tiny. THEND >^..^<
Look at these cute kittens climbing up the tree!
Gecko in my shirt!
I was sleeping when my mom asked me "what is the black thing on the mosquito net".I said"it's is a gecko"but me mom thought it was a bat. Then my mom turned on the lights and the gecko fell onto the bed. I tried to catch it,but it ran up my arm in to the back of my shirt.I tried to get it out of my shirt.I got hold of some part of the gecko.I pulled it out of my shirt but was just tail!!I dropped it on the bed and it was still moving.I picked it up and throw it out the window! The gecko ran out of my shirt to the edge of the bed and under the blanket.We had to open the blanket in that corner. We found the gecko and put him safely on the floor.THEND "clap clap clap"

Bali Bird and Reptile Park
I went to the Bali Bird and Reptile Park yesterday. My favorite reptile, other than a snake, is a Komodo Dragon, which is basically a giant iguana. It lives on Komodo Island in Indonesia. How it hunts is it first bites its prey with poisonous fangs, like a snake, but the poison is in its saliva, not it's fangs. Then the dragon lets the prey go, and later catches it easily because it's been weakened by the poison.
I went to an area called the Iguana Garden. There was stone paths with grassy areas in between where the iguanas were loose. There were also crocodile exhibits buy they were not let loose! The zookeeper gave my mom an iguana to hold and then I got to hold it. It was heavy and warm.
At the beginning of our visit we were in the restaurant without even knowing there was a show going on. The show was about famous bird stars in the park. The birds they showed were really cool! There was a macaw, a hornbill and a cockatoo. People got to put the cockatoo on their head and I got to do this! Her name was AnnaMarie. It felt like stone claws moving around and clawing at my hair.
We saw a toucan in a cage, which is my favorite bird other than the Anhinga. (This is not our photo!)
There was a special house on stilts where peacocks lived underneath inside a bamboo cage. When you went up the stairs to the top of the house, you went into a dark, L-shaped corridor. There were owls on each side of you. The first two were medium-sized. The next owl was big and the last ones were tiny, itty-bitty owls. There was a family of three. They were so cute! (This is not our photo either)
It was a great day and if you come visit I'll take you there!

Animals Around Our House
Our house in Bali has many animals around it—feasting, sniffing, hopping, rustling and slithering. The first animal is around our house is the called red-bellied lizard, even though it has a yellow belly. Then there are the spiders. The most common one is the Golden Orb spider, which is also the largest. It is named the Golden Orb because its web is goldenish. You can only see the gold from the side.
Next is the roosters.They are all around our house, crowing. They love to eat the offerings of banana leaves with rice that the old ladies leave out. Sometimes they come near enough to go under our porch when it's raining.
Next are the butterflies. They are everywhere in the sky. I've seen red, green, blue, black and yellow ones. My dad had one on his shirt that didn't want to come off. It had eyes on its wings to scare away predators. The last animal is the ruthless, blood-sucking, cruel mosquito. There's nothing else to say about them except they are very fast, like the flies, and one is biting me now!
