iFest

We had a BLAST at the insect festival on Thursday.


I'm really shocked at how fearless and awesome Sasha is about bugs. She will touch ANYTHING. No matter how eww-ish it looks. Why yes, that is a giant hissing cockroach in her hands. And a smile on her face.



It was really neat. They had all these displays up, all kinds of bugs to look at. Living and non-living. Even glasses to see the light and color pallette of a praying mantis.












This was the coolest thing, they poured wax down an ant hill and it hardened in all their tunnels and made the coolest coral like design. I just thought it was so beautiful seeing it like that. It's hard to see though, behind Sasha.










They all had a great time. Sasha even spent her own allowance to buy herself an "iFest" logo tee-shirt. I should really get a picture of it. Until then, here she is shaking her tail to communicate like the bees.
