Sloths and a little love

After our drive from San Jose, we enjoyed time at the sloth rehabilitation center.  After a great video, the grandson of the founders introduced us to a few of his friends including “Spiderman” and “David”.  These sloths really enjoyed their leisure time- our photos and gasps didn’t seem to bother them at all; they slept soundly. 

Lunch was phenomenal (not that we expect anything else)- and it is all made fresh from scratch for us.  After lunch, the babies were ready to be up and out- and so the sloth babies kept us busy trying to keep them from “escaping” from their little box.  Daddy, the larger baby decided to try and kidnap my camera….he wouldn’t let go!  One of the gents let us know that Daddy is actually a little lover and always wants to be held-so anytime you get close, he may decide to leave with you!  The great thing about his love of the camera though is that you get some great shots.
