March 3, 2011 "Swamp Buggy Safari!"






Today was a wonderful day with my new friends Jeff and Alison from Canada! We went on a full day adventure today on a swamp buggy and it was filled with the fantastic wonders of the Everglades including alligators, birds, plants, turtles, big cypress swamps and on and on!

The ride took four hours (plus a little extra because Chris the driver was in no hurry!) but the day passed very quickly. The weather was perfect although a little breezy but that was a welcomed thing out in the heat of the day. It was mother natures "air conditioner" and boy did it ever work.

The highlight of the trip was a short walked from the main trail into a Cypress Swamp where we found a ton of wonderful air plants to include the "Pinapple Orchid" and a nice 7 foot gator relaxing in the water. It was certainly a picture perfect example of the Everglades and what a wonderful sight it was.
Thank you all for the great day! Thanks Chris for making the ride enjoyable and educational and thank you Jeff and Alison for being great fun!

Enjoy the pics and videos and share them with others! Don't forget about Trip Advisor and if you would like to share some thoughts with others about your day and maybe help them out in their decision as to make this an adventure on their Florida vacation, please just click on the link on the right side of this blog for "Trip Advisor - Everglades Adventure".

Gator D is tired and gonna get ready for a good nights rest before starting out on his next adventure!
