a note from Christa J.

We were blessed to experience a well-done tour of the nature in New Orleans. We took air boats through a swamp. The still, picturesque scenery was peaceful, and the types of trees were different than any other trees I've ever seen in Minnesota. We also saw awesome wildlife up close. On my boat our guide captivated 12 foot long alligators with marshmellows. The huge alligators leaped out of the water to snatch the marshmellows. We were so close to huge alligators. We also saw albino alligators and baby alligators. I was on Mollie's boat, who was terrified of little snakes but fearless towards gators. Fortunately for Mollie we only saw one snake. I definitely felt at peace and in God's presence on this breath-taking tour.
