Gatorland with the Family!

Welcome to Gatorland!! This was our first BIG activity that we did with our family in Florida. It says that it is Florida's Best Half-Day park and we had to agree, since our kids can only go so long without naps. So here we arrive at the entrance....

The boys have NO FEAR, just excitement for seeing gators.

Here the monkeys are safely posed with an alligator!

C'mon guys. Hurry up!!! :)

Here are some of the holding tanks. They start with the babies on up to adults. Each age group is separated for their own safety!


Grant with Uncle Brad. He is catching a ride!
"CHEESE!"

Gavin volunteered to hold the cane! Beware!


The boys in front of the creepy white (blue eyed) alligator. Agghh... heepy jeepies!
Daddy and our animal lover Gabriel.


Grandpa B. and Mr. Gavin in the lorikeet cage. $1 peanut butter sticks were easy!
Grandpa is showing our timid Grant the bird!

BRAVE GABE!

The alligator Jumparoo show.

Crazy stuff!


There were a gazillion birds and they were stunning!
Gabe and Mommy on the Gator.


Grant suddenly surprised us all and wanted to go out on the gator too!
He was trying SO hard not to cry!

Wrapping up the day... alligators, train ride, walks, shows, and snacks galore!

One seriously BIG alligator. We were feeding him hotdogs! ;) I think that he liked us, or wanted to eat our children!

The birds were not fearful of the alligators, I WAS!

Gabe started crying when we made him lay in the alligators mouth.... Nap time! Bye Gatorland!
