East African Land Snail

So I just ran across an article http://www.japanupdate.com/?id=12203 about that snail I have a post down or so. Apparently they carry a parasite that can cause a form of meningitis so don't touch them!
Here is more info about the infection from the CDC website for anyone interested- http://www.cdc.gov/parasites/angiostrongylus/gen_info/faqs.html

Comprehensive

So Saturday evening we went down to Comprehensive park to check it out and see what it was all about. The park has a WHOLE lot to offer! There are TONS of stuff, we only saw about a 1/4 of the park. Peyton got to play her little heart out! As for Tabby, he's still on 6 pills a day. He seems to be getting some of his spunk back...we've got another appointment on Saturday for an ultrasound to check his heart. I went bow crazy and got Peyton this headband. I have other pics I will post later. Playing hard! Loving on Tabby.

Rainy days are gone...

So we've had clear weather for a few days now! It's finally gotten a little chillier too! Today when we woke up it was 15°c(about 62°F) tonight is supposed to get down to 11°c(about 52°F)!!! That's VERY cold for Okinawa! So it may actually feel like Christmas when it rolls around!! ;) Relaxing on the bean bag! Peyton doing her "cheese" face!
