There is always some exotic attraction no matter where you are. And by &#8220;exotic&#8221;, I don&#8217;t mean a gentleman&#8217;s club. Though there&#8217;s a few of <em>those</em> too. No, I mean weird.</p>
<p>Today we shall be going <a href="http://exoticanimalworld.com/index.asp">here</a>. That&#8217;s right, the SNAKE FARM!!!</p>

<p>ZOMG!!! Isn&#8217;t he adorable?? But it&#8217;s not just a reptile place. They have a petting zoo and rescue exotics from around the world. The farm was featured on an episode of <em>Dirty Jobs</em>, and Mike Rowe was a snake handler. He was <em>thisclose</em> to me and I missed out. It still pains me to this day. Anyway, we hope to catch a show or maybe feeding time. A LIVE feeding!!</p>
<p>And then we shall go to lunch 😀</p>
