This is Swampy, the biggest roadside gator attraction here in Florida. At 200 ft long, swampy is known as the world's largest gator ... and yeah, swampy is soooo friendly too LOL! From where we live, it's about 22 minutes drive to this place called Christmas, Florida. Oh yeah, this place is awesome because their Christmas is all year round. In fact, their town, their post office and some souvenir shops in the area have Christmas trees with christmas lights and Christmas decors. Amazing huh? Anyway, we always pass by this park when we go to Orlando so; I am always curious. I know that inside the tummy of swampy is the restroom and the gift shop of the park and here's what I know too:
Inside, guests will be able to see the exotic tropical birds, wolves, deer and the black bear native in Florida. If you love feeding them, yes you will have the opportunity too. Now, this might be scary for me but, guests will have the chance to have a jungle swamp cruise with 200 gators nearby. I don't know if I will take the chance of seeing the gators thru cruising. Thinking about it made me nervous already.
I would definitely see the giant African tortoise that they have and also, there is a wildlife show featuring the panthers, critters and more. Live shows are interesting so; I might see that. Well, they also have a replica of 16th century Spanish Fort so; I might take a look at it too.
If you love animals, you will love this place. Here is the address: 26205 East Colonial Drive (State Road 50), Christmas, Florida 32709. General entrance is 21.95, seniors are $18.95, children ages 3 to 11 is $14.95 but, if you have children under 3 years old, they are free. I might go there sometime. Maybe in cold season when gators are not super active. >o<
