Mexico!

Mexico! If you don't want to know about my trip, stop reading now! It was wonderful, too short, a week certainly wasn't long enough but the animals were brilliant. We stayed in an Eco hotel called the Sandos Caracol Eco Resort, you can look it up on Trip Advisor, my review is on there (I am HappyGinny). Where to start? The hotel has huge grounds and is set within the rainforest. We stayed in the quieter, adults only section and our room was very close to the perimeter wall. Most days we saw Spider monkeys, I say saw, you always heard them first as they came crashing through the trees.

No blog for a couple of weeks

No blog for a couple of weeks after this one as I will be in sunny Mexico! This week has been pretty quiet, as I said in last week's blog the 'make me an offer on a tarantula' promotion ended on Tuesday. It was very successful and certainly something that I will run again in the future. My last posting day before the holiday will be Monday but I will have limited time to spend on packing bugs as we are off late Tuesday. I hope to get all orders sent but it really depends on how many come in over the weekend. Last Monday was very busy and some orders had to be held over until Tuesday but obviously that isn't an option next week. I will send everything out in the order that I receive them. I will be clearing up, cleaning out and feeding my mini zoo this weekend. I placed an order for crickets yesterday morning so hopefully they will arrive today. Our postal deliveries are always erratic, we rarely receive anything before lunch time. My love...
