The Florida Everglades are a national park in which you can take a tour day-trip. The mini-bus picked us up from our hotel early morning and we set off into the wilderness. Before long we were told to look out the window for alligators - and we saw several. It was incredible how we could be in a beach resort (Marco Island on the East coast of Florida) in the morning and before long be in somewhere so wild and unpredictable. We took a river boat trip and spotted several alligators. The highlight, however, came when our boat was followed by a pair of wild dolphins, jumping in and out of the water in chase. It was so lovely to watch these animals in their natural surroundings and to watch them perform under their own initiative. Much better than any aquariam park. Our lunch consisted of alligator, frogs' legs, ostrich and other unitendifiable pieces of food. But we managed to eat it, and it really wasn't that bad! The rest of the trip included visiting real American Indian residences - obviously there are no Indians there now but it was wonderful to see something that makes up so much of American culture. The trip lasted a whole day and it was so fasinating. I would recommend it to anyone who is staying close to the Evergaldes.It was one of the highlights of our holiday.
