There was a lot to witness here. We took a boat along the river and were hijacked by smaller boats, not that I minded too much. Our original boat was a bit sluggish and somehow managed to steer its way too close to shore. Anywho, we were separated into two small boats, with the most of the girls in one boat and most of the boys in the other. We were brought to an area where we could see live alligators and huge catfish. We even witnessed a little girl wearing a snake as a scarf super nonchalantly, on a separate boat that just happened to pass by. It was all so bizarre to me but definitely made for some fun memories I won’t forget. Honestly, it was all pretty darn cool.

And on an unrelated note, I tried my first cricket that day. It was crunchy. More than one was eaten. No regrets.
