ACTUAL last day, gossip, Slothra & baby bear time
... had to start deleting the old ones. Still of course I need more. Obviously! Took a lot of photos of all of my section and I got Brittany to take some of me bottle feeding Gigia, which is definitely one of the highlights of my day. It's so cute. He love it bless him. It's making me pretty sad knowing this will be the last time I do all this for at least a while.
For baby time I managed to get baby bear Matt and new baby Brady Jesse for baby time, at the same ...
Gigia bear and the longest day ever

He decided to give Gigia some vitamin shots and fluids today which he had to be sedated for. I got to carry him in and help, he's so tiny now and he looked so ill on the ...
Nationalpark Cahuita
... sehr heiss und faulenzen wäre auch keine schlechte Idee gewesen :)
Weiter gings mit Waschbären, Krabben und Eichhörnchen. An einem wunderschönen Strand haben wir dann unsere Sandwiches bei karibischer Aussicht genossen. Hier ist auch einer der wenigen Orte, wo man sicher ins Wasser kann. Leider war das Wasser etwas untief und der Schnorchelgang war nicht gerade spektakulär. Das Korallenriff wurde bei einem Erdbeben 1991 um einen Meter angehoben und der grösste ...
