This is the first time on our tour that we’ve seen another boat. They look as surprised to see us as we are to see them. We didn’t stop though. We just gave them a quick wave and kept moving.

We’ve spotted more alligators but this time they’re on the other side of the boat so I can’t see them as closely as I could before. That first one we saw gave us the best view. I don’t thinkLeggi altro

This shot has both a raccoon and an alligator. The alligator is drifting back and forth, waiting for the raccoon to enter the water. The raccoon, of course, isn’t having it. It’s a standoff.

This video was shot in super fast motion using Timelapse but it still looks like we’re moving very slowly. You can imagine just how slow this part of our ride actually was!

This swamp seems to go on and on and everything is starting to look the same. I’d really like to see more animals but they are starting to get fewer and further between.

The next sight we were shown wasn’t animals but an area where people actually lived in the swamp. I found this to be both interesting and sad. I never knew anyone in the United States lived likeLeggi altro

I think it’s kind of wrong to intrude into the area where these people live and stare at them as if they are some kind of tourist attraction. I’m sure that they would prefer to be left alone. ThisLeggi altro

Shortly after passing through the swamp town we saw our last alligator of the day. He was just a baby one and so small that I nearly missed him. Luckily, I got the camera up on time to get a shot ofLeggi altro

I’m guessing that our tour is nearly finished because our guide suddenly sped up the boat to take us back to civilization. I really enjoy it when we’re going so fast!

We’re slowing down now and getting close to where we first started. Once I see that big bridge, I know that we’re nearly home.
