Riviera Maya Vacation - Part Six

For me, it's all about the beach.......nothing else really matters........but there are many perks and bonuses that comes with a stay at the Grand Palladium Resort in Mexico. Aside from what you would expect at an all-inclusive, there are loads of little things that make your trip worthwhile. One of those things is that you will encounter assorted wildlife. This place also happens to be a nature preserve. Flora and fauna.........animals.........lot's of animals. No cows or dogs or horses or lions.........but crocodiles, raccoons, lizards, monkeys, birds, and..............

........coati! Coati are sort of like a cross between a monkey and a raccoon, as you can see. And they just so happen to enjoy begging for food. Each day we would encounter them.....they are very cute......and as far as I could tell, not violent except when they are mad at each other for some reason. Princess Fartknocker, my granddaughter, was anxious to feed them.......that is until one of them put their paws on her bare leg.......she felt the sharp claws and quickly got away from them......she didn't like that.


Awww.......the poor little thing is hungry...........this is hard to resist.

Notice how far away Princess Fartknocker is from the coati.....hehehe.

Her brother, the Mayor Of Simpleton, fed them some bread......no problem.

The majority of animals seem to hide pretty well amongst the trees and bushes and fend for themselves when it comes to food. The coati have it all figured out.........all they have to do is look cute and beg and they can get all sorts of food.



Stay tuned........the beach is next.
