July 2, 2011 "Fun In The Everglades!"

We started our day picking up our guests in a rain storm. With lightening and thunder all around, it was hard to believe that we would make this journey successful! However, just as the radar showed, after we got below Collier Blvd, the skys cleared and we had great weather. It was somewhat overcast, which frankly helped keep the heat down.

With only 5 guests today, I was able to jump on the boat with Captain Kim and enjoy a ride in the glades. Man do I love gliding through the shallow waters of the marsh lands and prarie lands. We saw alligators and birds and blue crabs! And it was wonderful to see the little gators and get shots of the folks holding those prehistoric creatures!

Thank you all for coming with me on Safari today and I hope you carry with you some special memories!

Have a wonderful stay and come back to see us soon!
