It was about an hour drive to Coopertown The Original Air Boat Ride in Miami. Once there hubby and I changed into shorts in the car.. ya were were those people LOL. The boys were tired and cranky and just did not want to do this. Hubby barked thats fine everything we do isnt just for you so suck it up and stop whining. It isnt a vacation until were fighting lol.
Funny 5minutes later they were holding baby gators and smiles were ear to ear.
I wasnt smiling so much, thats the look of FEAR!
We had to wait about 30mins for our air boat tour to begin, so while we did they had a tour guide bringing out critters and talking about them. Don't ask me what they said, I was too worried that they would skurry up the stairs into the audience and eat me lol.
Eventually, it was our time to load up in the air boat. It was about an hour ride, full of good info and great laughs.
Saw only a couple gators in the "wild". But the ride itself was worth it.
Once our ride was over we grabbed some food at the dinner they had there. Real Frog Legs and Alligator bites. None of us were wowed by the frog legs, but the gator tasted delish... like chicken LOL.
After enjoying a cold beer with our snacks, we set off towards our hotel. We were staying near the Miami Airport at the Hampton Inn. But along the way we found a Walmart and stopped to get wine, soda's, water, and odds and ends we forgot (still didn't figure out the camera battery was back at home).
