So excited for today! We’ve headed to Everglades City and we’re heading out for an airboat ride!
First a quick scoot around the neighbourhood checking out the pretty buildings and private docks.
A vivid blue seafood market catches my eye as we head towards our boat experience!
Then we arrive at Captain Jacks and impatiently wait to get onboard our airboat!
I have wanted to do this for as long as I can remember.
Brought up on American TV in the 80s and 90s there always seemed to be people carousing about on these noisy beasts!
And here they are, lined up and ready to speed us through the Everglades.
So excited! We’re onboard and ready to go wooshing through the mangroves and alligator infested Everglades!!
The tangled mangroves are the perfect hiding spot for watchful alligators.
We pass another boatload of people just heading out. We were the first group out on the water so had the place to ourselves for a while at least.
Then we spot our first ferocious scaled beast, lurking in the water by our boat.
Charlie is one of the regular visitors who appears to nosey at us tasty flesh snacks.
After our first exhilarating ride we hop in the car to take a short drive to our second destination for another thrill packed hurtle through the grasslands
Some more videos of me gurning for you to enjoy!
Next up we get very up close with alligators.
