Hi All,
I'm back from USA and had a great time! I saw the Golden Gate Bridge and went for a ride on a cable car... so much still I didn't get to see and do but there's always next time!
Well I went to the Academy of Sciences & Steinhart Aquarium.... which had snakes!!!
I also visited a pet shop and my god they are so cheap... they had an albino king snake for US$89....... 
Anyway below are a couple of pics from the aquarium!
First one is these cute little Gunther's Whipsnake
Second is a Ball Snake
Third is a Garden Tree Boa
Fourth is an Emerald Tree Boa
Fifth is the golden gate bridge
Look forward to hearing from you all soon!!!
Cheers,
Mell

Hello,
Hope you liked the US! We have alot of different things over there that Australia doesn't have, & vice versa. I hope one day to be able to make a trip over to Australia as well!

Tracie | I absolutley fell in love with America! That trip was for work but at the end of august we are going to Hawaii for our family holiday so I'm really excited about returning! I can't wait to go back to the mainland though... San Fran was awesome!!!!
You'll definately have to make the journey one year!!! Quote:

Cheers,
Mell  | U are so lucky to live there...My first place to go is the zoo I have been planning for yrs..My dream was to go and meet Steve and thank him for all the conservation work he has done as well as opening ppls eyes to Herpetology..it has been my life sine I was a little girl, we just needed someone to put herps on the map, and he did...He is VERY well respected in the Herp community here.
also I lost my father at the age od 45..he taught me about snakes..Steve have a VERY place in my heart..its strange b/c they had the same mannerisms and walked alike..so when I watched Steve I always saw a little of my dad in him..so I was devastated when he passed..
Ok enough venting..sorry..I WILL make it there and we can have a party
