One of the things I've always wanted to do and have never done since I've lived in New Orleans for the last twelve years is a swamp tour. Hector, Sandra, Taylor, George and I went on one on the 2nd in Jean Lafitte. It was great. It's like 1/2 hour drive from my house and it lasted about 1 1/2 hour long on one of the canals. It was very informative and fun. We got to hold the baby alligator the captain had on the boat. We got to see turtles, egrets, armadillos and alligators. Saw some buzzards too. It was a perfect day because the sun was out but it wasn't terrible hot. Here's some pictures. I took the little alligator and made me some nice boots. Just joking. I've never understood the mystique behind alligator leather. I do however like me some alligator and shrimp cheesecake from Jacquemos. Yummy!
