Murder lizard

I am a very scared person, I am scared of heights, scared of the dark, incredibly scared of spiders and generally scared of insects and such.

Sedan finns det även vissa saker som jag inte vet att jag är rädd för förrän jag hamnar i den situationen, exempelvis när jag först hoppade glädjeskutt när Miska köpte en sköldpadda “how guuuulligt !!! ” and then when it crawled towards me I ran and screamed haha!

It's not that I think they'll hurt me in any way, my survival reflexes just start without me being able to control it. As if my brain is playing a prank on me. And I got another proof of that last night when there was a similar incident in our hotel room.

I was going to brush my teeth in the bathroom when suddenly a 20 cm long lizard runs over the wall and into the back of the mirror! I flapped so my arms were flying off, screamed and ran out to Miska in the bedroom. Miska thought I had seen a killer spider before I had time to explain that we have a huge lizard in the bathroom!

Miska går in och ser ingenting, eftersom den sitter bakom spegeln. Och när han säger att han nog inte kan få bort spegeln så var jag bara några sekunder ifrån att börja gråta “I will never go in there again, I would rather pee on myself !!!And after a while Miska manages to get rid of the mirror. I sit with the blanket over my head in bed when he comes out and laugh with this in my hand:

“Hur stor var den sa du??”

Haha, so at first I thought there was a mother lizard left in there but he looked through the whole bathroom and it was right behind the part of the mirror that I saw it run into, so it was this little crab that was no bigger than a half finger as I have seen.

How could my brain turn this into a huge 20 centimeter killer lizard ???

I had a bit of a hard time falling asleep later and jumped as soon as there was the slightest noise in the room, but it all ended well and I do not have to borrow the neighbors' bathroom either haha.

Now we'll go out and enjoy the last full day here in Cape Verde, tomorrow we go home.

Have a wonderful day nice you!
