Iguana wants to rent a car

The iguana that I showed yesterday had business at the airport. He appears to want to rent a car. There are several car rental places in town in Tamarindo, so he did not have to walk out to the airport for his car rental.

This is the most common type of iguana that we see around Tamarindo. It is called a black iguana, or iguana negra, of course, in Spanish. The correct biological name for this type of iguana is ctenosaur.

Today is Sunday, so we have new photos on our travel photo site, Viva la Voyage. We are showing some photos what we think is the world's most artistic and impressive cemetery, Recoleta, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Come to the website for a visit.

    Is he old enough to rent a car?

    If you watch these creatures walking down a street, you can understand why they might opt for a speedier form of transportation.

    In this photo, I can get an idea of the size of that fellow! Bigger than I thought. I also like the reflection of the photographer in the glass!

    Those would bother me to no end. I am not afraid of them but they remind me of other things that crawl around on the ground. LOL

    Very funny Dave. This looks like a set up for a commercial.

    But can its feet reach the pedals? And those eyes on the side of the head would not be helpful for seeing oncoming traffic.
