pass the python, please



One of the highlights of Kevin's time here in Togo was the snake cook-out last night here on the compound. I was so very happy to have a good excuse for not eating snake.....I was just discharged from the hospital around 4:30 in the afternoon and we attended this cook-out about 4 hours later and my doctor advised against eating snake as my first meal in two days. That was advice that I gladly followed!
.
I did enjoy watching the others eat it and make comments about what they were consuming. Kevin reports that while the puff adder had more bones, it was definitely more tender than the python. Just thought you'd like to know that useful piece of information for the next time you order a heapin' plate of snake.
