Mini-frogs and Coca-Colas

Here's a baby frog Colette and I spotted sitting on some moss at the base of some rice, the little speck. Tadpoles scatter when you walk past the edge of a rice field.
We bought this coke just to illustrate the differences in portion sizes here. They do have normal sized sodas as well, but nothing like the 40 oz monstrosities common in the states.
Colette looked too sute in her pajamas to resit the urge to shoot.
Colette likes to swing. This park was ok except for under one climbing thing there were hoards of Japanese wasps. I watched a documentary on them on Animal Planet once, a group of about 30 wasps attack beehives, decapitating the bees by the hundreds each, then carting off the larvae to feed their young. They have power-ranger-like heads so they are easily recognizable. We stayed away from that side of the park.

Hi all. I've seen tiny coke cans like that in our grocery store. Of course we also have the big three liter bottles right next to them. that's another interesting thing about new places is discovering the bugs. I remember my first encounter with a three-inch cockroach in a washroom in Houston.
