Tropical House Gecko perching on my backpack to say "hi" In our first hotel in Brufut, we would often just hang out in the garden by the pool where lots of interesting birds and occasional cool reptiles would sometimes drop by. This one especially liked by black backpack for some reason (no, there was no food in it).
