Gatorland 🐊 - Happy Thanksgiving! :)

Gatorland is a 110-acre theme park and wildlife preserve known as “The Alligator Capital of the World.”

I called their business line and omg! An automated Southern Floridian greets you while directing your call. Eventually, you reach a live person.

It takes about 3 to 4 hours to do everything in Gatorland. I went in November when it was not humid & breezy. It is unlikely that you’ll get bit by bugs (chiggers) but you can still get bit by them on the swamp walk. I got a few bites on my ankles and behind my legs. Wear sunscreen if your skin is sensitive.

Me at the iconic entrance.

There are flamingos, snakes, big cats, emus, and more. There is a section about the Egyptian God Sobek by the Nile crocodiles. I took a photo of the hieroglyphics and Sobek is featured in it. My favorite part of Gatorland was the swamp walk. It’s a real swamp! Signs to beware of snakes and chiggers are posted.
