THE EVERGLADES NATIONAL PARK

We took the kids the the Everglades National Park a while ago and here are the pics from the day. On the way there Kyler couldn't stop talking about the alligators. My Dad loves to tell the kids stories about when we wrestled an alligator, so on the way Kyler asked Erick if he would wrestled an alligator like Grandpa did. Since we knew we would actually see some alligators, we told Kyler that the rangers wouldn't let you wrestled them in the park.
It was really fun to see all the alligators, birds and turtles. We didn't have any cross the road in front of us (this is a common thing to see apparently) but we were really close to them in the water. There were a few moving around but mostly they just sit there in the water. It was a really fun day!
This is the board walk that goes all around the water so you can get a good look at the alligators.



While we were walking, we heard the loudest snap ever. We came around a few bushes and saw this one in the water, I am sure we just missed him getting his lunch.




Here is one of the turtles we saw. There were a lot in the water, but this was the most active one.
