I have over 200 pictures from my trip. I randomly uploaded a few from the folder. Now that Anandtech resizes pictures this shouldn't be a problem.

Most of these pictures were taken from a boat we rented. Some where blurry because we where moving kind of fast so that we could navigate around tight turns. We hit a couple trees, I almost fell out of the boat when using an oar to help stop an impact.. I flew back 2 seats. lmao.

We stayed for 3 nights. Went on a 4 hour boat trip through the swamp. I'd like to go back and go on one of the 3 day canoe trips.

Btw, my camera is just a dainty little point and shoot. Sony Dsc-w120

edit This is bad. It brings my browser to a crawl. An better image hosting suggestions?


Hold on guys. Going to find a better image hosting option. Sorry.

ARRGH!!!!

Simply reducing the image size to 1024x768 or 8x6 would be HUGE in terms of performance.

As for auto-resize, It seems to dl the whole thing, then reduce in size.

Yeah, that's really gay. I'm moving them to a better solution right now.

I love swamps. Your gator pictures are awesome! I've only seen one gator in the wild, from a distance. Your pics make me want to pack up and head out.

I have a lot more pictures of them. In total, I think we probably saw 10-13 different alligators. When we first got in the boat I was wondering if we where going to be lucky enough to see them.. then less than 15 seconds later we where all freaking out because there was one swimming by the boat. haha.

Most of the cool areas I didn't get any pictures off because I was helping navigate the boat with oars through very very thin water channels.

We also saw a grey haired fox and a few deer. The fox kept coming back to visit our camp site late at night. We where told that during the fall bears are all over the place.

I can't wait to go back. It was too much fun.

uuuuugh, i can just hear the mosquitoes buzzing noise next to my ear. >_<

Surprisingly there were literally zero mosquitoes. It was pretty cool outside so I don't think they were out yet. During mid summer I imagine they would be horrible.
