Gator Hunting.. well, Gator Looking really.


Earlier this week, Ryan's old friend from St. Leo made a stop in Tampa on non-stop six month journey with his girlfriend Arna. Both Bjarki and Arna live in Iceland and spent a day and night with us here is Sunny Florida before they headed off to Vancouver. The two are spending the next five months (they've already been on the road for one month now) seeing as much of the world as they can! What a great idea! To entertain and excite our guests we took them to the Smith lake house for a day of skiing and gator hunting!!

Our gator hunting trip was very successful not only because we saw so many gators but because we could get very close to them with the boat before they swam off.

This little guy was the smallest gator we came across. He might have been a whole foot and a half long.
This is me venturing into the water to get a close up shot. I was trying to muster the courage to actually catch the little booger but I just didn't have it in me.. you can see his little reflective eye shinning back at you here in this picture.
