    1. Thanks, Ferdy.
      That was my first Glass Frog of my trip and I was ecstatic to see it as I gave a list of stuff I really wanted to see on my trip to the Guide. And since he don't speaks English and we don't speaks Spanish, I had to show him pictures of the stuff I wanted to see. And when he spotted this Frog, he was quite adamant to show us, that this IS a Glass Frog :)
