We left Tampa and drove across Alligator Alley to one of our old favorites, Billie's Swamp Safari. We had not been there in 10 years, but things hadn't changed much. While most people wouldn't visit the Everglades of South Florida in the summer, well, that is when we could go. Because is the terribly humid and hot weather, they weren't busy, which was just fine with us.
They weren't doing an alligator show, but this was almost better. They were teaching some of their new staff how to do it! We got a free show, and it was really interesting to watch. This girl was good.
They loved the tortoise.
Ready for the airboat!
We didn't see many out of the water because it was so hot. Our airboat ran over one, which was pretty cool. Because the motor is out of the water, the gator was not injured.
Nice and swampy
While fun, we were all miserably hot and ready to get back in the car.
