Everglades – part 2 – Let‘s Go!

We spent 9 hours with a tour guide at the Everglades. It was so interesting to learn about the ecosystem, the challenges, the changes, non-native species, etc. our tour guide Gabe was very knowledgeable and presented facts without judging or accusations.

We took an hour long airboat ride, checked out alligator nests, blue and white herons, many different fish and plant varieties

Alligator nest. The mama gator is barely visible just to the right of the nest

We stopped at a few nature hikes, visitor centers and museums along the way before we had a late lunch and another boat ride, this time at the golf of Mexico
