The swamp tour captains always catch a little gator to pass around on the tour. We all wanted to hold him and have a picture taken with him. I was surprised how rubbery feeling he was. Becca holding him.
Stu's turn to hold him.

I got to hold him.

I guess this is a bird from the swamp. Can't remember what he's called....

This is a shack they built to add local flavor to the tour, I guess. Our guide told us that when Katrina hit, it sucked all of the water out of the channels in the swamp. He'd never seen that happen before but it all depends on the strength and direction of the hurricane.
