My family and I just recently went to the Cockrell Butterfly Center at the Houston Museum of Science.  Every time that I go there I have an amazing little adventure into a small version of a tropical rain forest.  There are so many butterflies flying in the Center that you can't possibly keep up with them.  They also have a large variety of insects and spiders along with one very large green iguana. Here are just a few of the pictures that I was able to take.
