April 11, 2013 "Rain, Rain go AWAY!"

Had another great day in the Glades today. The weather was pretty good and although we got into some rain, our airboat and swampbuggy rides were dry and breezy. 

We began our day on the airboat, followed by the swampbuggy. Then a little walk around the zoo looking at alligators, crocodiles, and other wonderful critters.

We had lunch at the Seafood Depot and as always I got stuffed on the salad bar. I love the salad bar they keep it so fresh and I can always build it differently to keep from being bored.

From there we visited the Museum of the Everglades where Mr. England shared with me the new "lobby design" which he had built from an old photo from days gone by. It was great. I love the museum because it's small and to the point.

After a brief stop at the "Smallest Post Office in America" we continued to the Turner River where we saw several gators enjoying the waters of the rivers and hanging out on the banks. I counted 17 in about a mile and a half of water. Not bad but there were many more lurking beneath the surface I can grant you!

Then to the "Interactive Animal Exhibit" at the Skunk Ape Headquarters. What a fun time I had with Cody and Nathan. Oh, and the adults too, however, you guys were WIMPS compared to those to young men!

Thanks you all for the fun day. I hope you enjoy all of the photos. Gator D is tires and ready for bed. SEE YOU LATER ALLIGATORS!
