Last day and an early start. Breakfast at 5.30, finished packing and then had to meet at 7 for the shore excursions. Left the ship at 7.30 and on to a bus headed for the Saw Grass Recreation Park. They have a lot of rescued animals like Burmese pythons (enormous), and alligators, including one that’s 57 years old and expected to live until he’s about 90. Panthers, a bobcat, a fennec fox and even a kookaburra. After that we all got into an everglades air boat and had a trip into the edge of the Everglades. Normally the water level it 18-24 inches, currently it’s 4-5 ft because of the hurricane and most of the birds and dragonflies, who left before the storm hit have not yet returned. Saw alligators and soft-shelled turtles.
The bus then dropped us off at either of the 2 airports in this area. I’m currently sitting at Miami International, and have another 4 hours here. Hence finishing off the blog.
