Gator hunting

We went to Everglades National Park in Ft. Lauderdale.  It was actually pretty fun.  We spotted a 5-6 ft alligator, some vultures enjoying a meal of turtle, and these birds that are the cousins of chickens.  Porter loved when the airboat went fast and as soon as we'd slow down, he'd sign "more".  That kid loves an adventure.

After the air boat ride we watched an alligator show with the guys from the tv show Alligator Rescue.  Porter got to pet a baby alligator.  The first thing he did was "hold" it's claw, then he proceeded to grab its belly:).  Porter was lucky that the alligators mouth was taped shut!

This vest lasted about 30 sec before Porter screamed and it came off.




This little guy has no fear.
