Pour quoi frog?

Why frogs? Well, why not. These frogs are for Darcy, who has been in isolation in The Sydney Children's Hospital. If you want to follow Darcy's progress check out the journal updates here: www.caringbridge.org/visit/darcygilmour10/journal

World of Frogs - Scotland

We begin out tour of the world's frogs in Scotland - home of the brave.
And the thistle.


In Scotland the frog is seen as an item of luck. Households often keep stone frogs in their gardens and they are often given as house warming presents. The associations are believed to date back to Pictish times.

And if you think Pict, you think Blue, right?
Nah.
This one is South American.
