Second week in Palo Verde
... instead of studying for our finals!!!
Some friends and I decided to hike a trail (La Roca) that
gives a beautiful view of the sunset as well as a 360 degree view of the marsh!
It was definitely worth the mosquito bites!! It was a great view and great

I hope that everyone is having a great holiday season and
you better eat a candy cane for me!!!

Massive trees and Big bugs!
... ground. This snake wasnt that big but i was very beautiful. It had shades of blue all over it. We learned that it wasnt dangerous and was also a small species of snake. While it can bite, it has no venom. We find the dangerous snakes later on in the walk. Actually not that far away we found a second snake.
