The Florida Everglades

After getting off the cruise Saturday morning, we had a lot of time to kill (our flight didn't leave until 6:00 pm!!). So we booked a tour for the day. Our first stop was the Florida Everglades for an airboat ride!
Brady, Gibson and I on the airboat!

Towards the end of the ride, we finally got to see an alligator (1 of 2 we spotted)!

If you ever wondered what the Everglades looked like - here they are!


After the airboat ride, we watched an alligator show. This man is an alligator wrestler. He was getting ready to compete in a national competition. When we arrived, he was scrubbing down and rubbing his alligators (there were probably about 10 of them) - you could tell they were his babies!

Here's some of the show:
