Crocodiles!

We were watching Discovery Channel tonight, and they had a show on "Super Croc" - a prehistoric crocodile that was twice the size of today's reptiles.

The boys were fascinated by it. The show also featured different types of crocodiles from around the world, and depicted them in action: stalking prey, remaining immobile, chomping down on various animals. One scene showed an African crocodile stealthily swimming up to a herd of wildebeests drinking water, then suddenly leaping out to grab one of them. Hadrien was so alarmed that he rushed to the TV screen and started spanking it, shouting: "Bad cwocodile!"

Baz mentioned that crocodiles were like alligators, which prompted a rendition of Sesame Street's "The Alligator King" from Hadrien: "Sed the Awigator King to his seven sons, I'm feeling ... mighty down!"

Later in bed I told them that I was the Daddy Crocodile and that it was time for the crocodile boys to sleep. Baz promptly identified himself as the "Adobo Crocodile" and Hadrien was the "Monster Crocodile" - complete with his low rumbling hrrmmmm sound.
