The Everglades. Where to start? I started in Everglades City. Blackish, brackish water. Mangrove forests. Acres of sawgrass. Islands made of trees and of shells. Dolphins danced behind my boat on a two-hour tour of 10,000 Islands (well, maybe four of them). Alligators lolled at my feet (well, maybe four feet away) on a walk through Shark Valley. Wintering birds soared, sang, squawked, and stalked me everywhere. To anyone who says “Why would you want to visit a swamp?” – I hope you open your eyes someday!
