Reptile Gardens

We decided that the next day we would visit Reptile Gardens. But the day started with us finding a KOA to camp in and then also making the decision to rent a car to make travel around town a bit easier. After renting a suburban we went out to spend the afternoon at the gardens. Without even knowing it we went at just the right time as we were able to go right in and see the first show that they have and then only had to wait about 20 minutes before the next show started and then about 45 before the last. We were able to see all the shows that they had and then see the rest of the exhibits and finish out the tour with a free gift from the gift shop with our coupon. Of course Gabe would say that it wasn't free because we had to pay to get in, but they did give each of the children a gift (I thought it would be one). So these are the highlights of our trip to Reptile gardens. These are the pictures from the first two shows that we saw. The crocs and alligators were the first. The "guide" was Drew and he showed and told us about the crocs. He showed us how to wrestle one and then brought a baby (he said about a year) out for everyone to pet. I was surprised as Katherine even touched the baby....usually she won't pet any animals held by strangers.























The next show that we caught was the snake show. This guy's name was Lance and he had a few snakes that he showed us. This one was the most unique as it is an albino. This was also the one that we were able to touch after the show.
