Quango-Bingo Travels: France, March 2012 - Day 3 (continued): Snake Eyes!
I remember once, when I was a very young Quango-Bingo, we visited family in Germany. It was the Summer time and we went to a lake for a swim. In the reeds, my uncle (let’s call hum Uncle Awesome) found and caught about 5 baby grass snakes.
He brought them back in a sandwich tin so that we could all get a better view. They were tiny, thin, very lively and absolutely fascinating. I was in awe of their beauty.
Since then, I have never again seen a snake in the wild. This despite always looking out for them and occasionally finding old snake skins whilst out and about.
One day I will, but until then, I will have to be content with going to see them in such places as the lovely Ile aux Serpents.

Of course, the main attraction at the Ile aux Serpents are the… well, the serpents!
I will let them speak for themselves.
