Alligator!

I'm at a conference in Florida right now which has been absolutely inspirational and awesome for the entire week of very long (7.30 a.m. - 9.30 p.m. ) days.
Today, however, we all went to the Everglades! 6 busloads of students and teachers from all over the globe - it was great!

And I saw this guy! A nice big alligator, lounging around in Florida sunshine. A bit battle scarred but he was obviously quite content.

Gorgeous place!!

Checking out the boat!

And losing interest in us :)

I'll have to blog later about some of the amazing speakers I heard at this conference - they have been truly phenomenal and have really made me think about what it means to be a teacher. Not so much from the academic perspective but from the holistic side of life. When I get all my thoughts together I'll share some of it :) but for now...

enjoy the upcoming weekend :)
