Costa Rican Hotel Explorer

As I've mentioned before you don't even have to leave your hotel to see something exotic.
Take this Basilisk trotting along poolside.

  4. Look how fancy he is in the book - what a glamor shot. I am pretty sure he is even doing "jazz hands".

  9. That basilisk should be ashamed of itself. It's nowhere near as cool as Harry Potter's...

  10. My guess is that it's called a Jesus Christ lizard less because it can run across water and more because that is what people scream out when they see that thing coming towards them. Now I feel all crawly.

  12. I'm not sure why, but that Jesus Lizard looks like he should be wearing a top hat.

  13. Hmm... I've never commented and don't know why I am now. Oh. Right. Whisk(e)y. Well, I just hope you didn't look this bastard in the eyes. I guess we'll hear about it in the news if you did.

  16. You are so cool~~~you don't just show us the photos, you show us something educational too.

    If you ever decide to quit acting (please don't!!) you could be a great teacher.

  18. Anyone who wants to see the basilisk lizard in action should go over to National Geographic's site and watch their video. It's hilarious to watch them run on the water. Thanks for providing the fodder for an afternoon of fun for me and the kids, Jorge!

  21. The Jesus Christ lizard, I was thinking about Hugo seeing one running on the water then yelling out, "Jesus Christ" while pointing at the lizard. And finally Hurley's mom saying in a serious tone, "Hugo, don't say the Lord's name in vain."
