Everglades Safari Park - December 6.


Best value park in the USA - this one! $20 bought us a 45 minute awesome trip through the Everglades on an airboat, a half hour show with a bloke and three alligators he's worked with for over 20 years, who you could tell just adored him, and a free wander thorugh the rest of the Park. Excellent value. It was sooooo exciting to see the alligators in the wild through the Everglades - not a place to go swimming! Mum bought alligator tails in the restaurant - the Indians used to use them as a never-ending food source - if you only cut off the tip of their tails, they grow another one! I tried not to think about that while I attempted a nibble - not my cup of tea. Tastes like a cross between chicken and pork, which was nice, but also had a seafood tang to it, which I didn't like (I don't like seafood). If you like seafood, I reckon you'll love alligator tails (unless, of course, you don't like pork or chicken).
