The Everglades

Spring Break Fun in the Everglades 🐊🐍🌿🚤

My son is only un Florida for a week, and the Everglades are just 3 hours away, so we had to make time to go during the dry season

We visited Shark Valley. We got a bit of a late start so we were in line for over an hour, then we drove a few miles east of that & took an airboat ride

There's a gator among the lily pads, and our first sighting 

Yes, we were that close, and no there wasn't a fence

This one kinda scared us

A fun day with my favorite person learning about my adopted state's infamous wildlife.
