On Thursday we went to Cypress Gardens. When we were there we went on a canoe in a swamp. My dad and I paddled. Almost right when we started paddling we saw an alligator! It was so cool. We got a picture of it. On the rest of the ride we tried to find another one, but we didn’t. What we did see was my sister Amber almost flipping the boat over just because a firefly was near her! We all were laughing. When we got off the boat we went to see the birds. We said hello to a cockatoo and he/she said hello back! Then we went inside to see other animals. We saw a weird turtle thats called a snake neck turtle. It had a really long neck. When we stepped out the other door there were really long alligators. My family and I had a great time at Cypress Gardens. It was a really fun experience.
Hope you keep reading!

***Note from Mom…the movie The Notebook was filmed here (one of my favorites), it was even more beautiful in real life! No, it did not rain us! Also, surprisingly there were NO mosquitoes. A bug that lives in the water eats all the mosquitos and it’s eggs!***
