Exploring the Louisiana Bayou Country, we went to a small town named Kraemer. There wasn't much in the town besides a touristy store that offered airboat rides. On a quick tour before our ride we encountered this tree covered in alligator skulls. We were told it is used for Voodoo rituals. Who knows? It makes a good picture though.

During our swamp tour we had encountered wild alligators and were pretty close to some. We were never able to get a great look at them until we encountered these penned up ones.
They stared at us while we stared back.

Here is one of Marilyn's favorite photographs from our trip. She is holding a baby alligator. As she held the little guy, it made a gurgling clicking sound. The guide said it was to call it's mom for help.
For Marilyn, this is her equivalent of a "Mike vs. the Possum" photo.

One of the highlights of the trip was going on an Airboat Ride. This is an action shot as we skip over some tall weeds. Chunks of vegetation, and a few little ants, flew back at us and the whole ride was a blast. If you get the chance, you definitely will want to go on an airboat ride.
