Helping the snails cross the street / myLot

Denpasar, Indonesia

November 3, 2016 11:54pm CST

As it is rainy season now in my place, thus some snails easily can be found everywhere. This morning, again, I saw some snails crossing the street near my workplace. I worried about them, as I didn't want someones stepped on them.

. Thus, now I have a new routine, helping the snails crossing the street. While picking them up, I whispered to them 'please don't be so lazy. Walk quickly.'

I hope they like me. Haha!

My husband is also like that but sometimes it's very dangerous when we ride the motorcycle and he choose to slip than to run over the crawling animals on the street.. one time we had an accident when he tried to avoid a frog crossing by the highway..

They just come out on rainy season. Other than that, they are also rarely to be found.

I was saying the truth... They indeed are slow moving creatures.

I don't care if they like me or hate me... I just wanted to help them. that's all.

Hahaha funny

Snails have shells.. I don't think they'd be hurt by anyone's telling over them

@RitzzView Not really. I just don't want to make mistake, like accidently dropping them to the ground.

. Sometimes their shells are slippery...

Haha! I'm OK if they creep me out. I just hold their shells, don't dare to touch their 'legs'.

i usually drop the snails in the park instead of letting them die on road.

That's so kind of you taking and dropping them in the park. At least they can continue their living.

There's a snail in our garden who surprises me all the time. But I don't bother it much.

The snails may yet listen to your advice...then we won't be able to say "slow as snails".
