Kids and Iguanas


Down in the grassy moat outside the stone walls of Fort Napoleon goats are munch, munch, keeping the jungle at bay. The kids are busy showing off and climbing the outer, ever so slightly inclined walls, searching for greener, juicier grass. Perched on the near vertical stone walls. A great circus act.
There's a sideshow of REAL! LIVE! weird and dangerous-looking beasts, too. Iguanas. Green or brown, they're taking a slowwwwww walk out of their dinosaur past; blinking in the sunshine, they can't believe what they're seeing. We shoot them with our digital cameras, zoommmmm, as they promenade along the inner perimeter. We're across the wide grassy mote following on the outer wall.
We never got inside Napoleon’s Fort; it's only open in the mornings. But we did see acrobatic kids and prehistoric iguanas.
