Lafayette 24-4 swamp tour



Pulled up to the Swamp Tour place with much excitement. 



This is in Hendersonville on the Atchafalaya basin. 



Got all dressed up. 



Captain Cal was great. 



You had to wear hearing protection from the airboat propeller. The couple in front were from Poland and behind us a lady from France! 



It was breathtaking. 













We stopped and the captain slapped the water with a paddle. He called to the alligators in French. And they came! This one was Suzette. 



She came right up to the boat and he patted her head. 



This big one was Hercules. No petting for him. 



Then he took us to see a mama gator. 



Look close and you can see her babies all over and around her. 





Had to try this place on the Amy Bayou. 



Seafood gumbo.
