Notes:

Since our trip had to be changed due to being caught i the floods of 2016, we missed out on spotting crocs in the wild. This is my only spotting. I must say, these guys are truly awe inspiring. I am sure I was not the only thankful for sturdy steel bars between us and him as his trainer put him through his paces
