Last week we ventured down to Everglades National Park to see if we could find an alligator or two. We stopped first at Royal Palm and went on a short hike on the Anhinga Trail. We found ourselves merely feet away from dozens of sunbathing alligators... and lots of birds too.
We then tried our luck hiking through a "hammock" forest but got chased out by a swarm of mosquitoes (the bugs proved to be much more threatening than the alligators or crocodiles). We wanted to try something a little more adventurous so we rented a canoe at Flamingo and explored the only habitat on earth where alligators and crocodiles coexist. Paddling past crocodiles was definitely a thrilling experience.
