This morning we had to be off the boat bright and early. We got packed up and got everything in order and were off the boat by about 8:30 and back the Orlando airport around 9ish. We had rented a car for the day and after picking it, and some breakfast, up we headed to Gatorland. Well, prior to today, I had an immense fear of alligators/crocodiles and today just helped to justify that fear. These creatures are ferociously scary. That said, we had a fascinating day walking around and seeing them in action. We watched several different shows (Gator Jumparoo and gator wrestling show) and watched some feeding sessions. You can buy bags of hot dogs to throw to the gators.
After finishing our time at Gatorland we ate at a local DDD restaurant called Mrs Potato Restaurant which was fabulous! And then finally back to the airport and we were headed home.We had a fabulous time together on this trip. It was really really fun.
He paralyzed the alligator, which apparently can work for about 5 minutes
here we are about to walk on the boardwalk through the swamp. there were signs everywhere warning of water moccasins.
