Everglades Airboat Ride

Our friends Cade and Heather were in town visiting us for the weekend so we showed them native Florida by taking them on an airboat tour to see some alligators. We were lucky enough to get up close and personal with a huge gator. If you look close he's just to the left of us. I was nervous to take the picture because last time I did the tour the alligator lurched at the boat unexpectedly. A passing airboat gave us a nice spray of water giving us all some crazy hairdos!

I love the pictures! We are definitely going to have to go on one. That alligator is crazy big! You look so good in all of the pictures!

I have ALWAYS wanted to ride on one of those, ever since that crockadile dunde movie! How fun! And, I love the cookies you made, they look a lot better than mine turned out!

So fun! Christy that is the SAME place we went on an air boat last year! I hated when the driver was trying to get the gators to come to the boat, enough already! Are you still a little deaf or did you use the ear plugs? Those things are load!

That picture with alligator in the water behind you totally freaks me out. I don't know if I could have stood there with it to my back like that. You are brave!
