The blue tongued skink, like a lizard, was in a friend's house.
You never know what you will see travelling to visit a friend. People I have known for years.
The lizard is kept in what looks like an acquarium with a sliding door.
This creature is fairy sleepy during the day. Unlike the geckos we had on the walls indoors and outdoors, in Singapore, which after a rest, watching you, would suddenly race off.
I recall the tiny ones on Greek islands at hotels with remote bedrooms. I was scared shocke, when the little things leaped off the wall onto my bedding or pillow, disappeared under bed clothes, or jumped out of a shoe under the bed, then disappeared behind or into another shoe. Other guests and hotel management could not understand why I was alarmed, and assured me, 'They are harmless.'
Having studies NLP (neuro linguistic programming, I know to talk to the creature, indirectly to my own brain, telling it, 'Don't worry, the big lady human won't hurt you.'
Kimono dragons, much larger, are another thing. Tourists are taken to see them.
My host saw them on a tour with a guide, from about ten feet away. 'You don't wander around on your own.'
