#2: Air Boat Across an Alligator Infested Swamp

American Alligators have one of the most powerful bites ever recorded of a living animal.

The airboat tour is not as exciting as you would think or as I thought it would be. They simply just looked like rocks coming up for air. However, the Alligator show that the park puts on afterward is. Read about my adventure here!

Epcot is not just for kids. I promise. It is so much fun to drink beer at all of the different restaurants that have cuisines from all over the world. I went to Epcot time and time again growing up, but the most memorable moment in Epcot for me was at the Mexican restaurant for my 21st birthday where my beloved Aunt Wendy, whom is no longer with us, purchased my first ever legal drink.
