We decided since we had some extra time today before we checked into the hotel in Miami Beach that we'd check out the southern part of the Everglades. We went into the Coe National Park Entrance, and first went to Royal Palm. It had two nature walks. One was more animals, the other was supposed to be a walk through a tunnel through mangroves. It had been somewhat destroyed in hurricane Andrew and was very buggy. We did find out what a Gumbo Limbo tree looked like - red and peeling. We then drove to Flamingo - the southern most point in the park. It was very quiet - no one around. We did catch a great Osprey having dinner. We stopped at several places along the path back to the park entrance. Then we drove to Miami Beach. After we found the hotel, Charlie was enthusiastic about having a dip in the Atlantic. I couldn't believe how warm the water was. Like a hot tub! We showered and had a Cuban dinner. Nice day. Here's our photos.
Last post tomorrow before we go home.
