Day 37 : See you later alligator

Swamp tour! Amazing flat boat tour of the swamps in Jean Lafitte national park. Saw the beautiful swampy landscape and saw loads of alligators of varying size (including a huge one) and held the cutest baby pet alligator.
Street cars –  are cool, they use the original carriages from the 20s.

Food today:

• Chicken gumbo and turtle soup
• Po-Boys for dinner (huge sandwich things) and fried green tomatoes .

Animal count: 2 really cute little lizard/ gecko things. Great blue heron, egrets. About 15 alligators (they like raw chicken and marshmallows).

In general: New Orleans is a totally amazing place – everyone should visit!
