Day 3: Monday, July 13th

We've definitely gotten in the swing of things around here and I even feel like I'm starting to adjust to the heat! This morning was very productive, we went out to Walmart and got things for lunches, among other things.

The afternoon was really exciting: we drove out to a swamp and went on a tour on an airboat! It's this boat with a big fan-like thing in the back. To be honest, I was expecting the swamp to be very booney, like on Waterboy but it was nothing like that. Well the actual foliage was very similar but the houses out there were gorgeous!! Anyway, the tour was a blast. The guide would drive fast and skip over little corners of land and when we went slow we saw 16 alligators! We even got to hold his little pet baby alligator that he had brought with him on the boat. It was a great time.

Once we got back to the hotel, we decided to just stay in and order in dinner because we still had to pack lunches and we were all pretty tired and wanted to get a good night's sleep. I can't believe we start at the site tomorrow! I'm so nervous!
