Miami, FL
We got up this morning and headed to get some breakfast. We ended up at Dunkin Donuts. Yep i was a bad girl and had a glazed donut and it was so good. YES, i know how many calories was in it. I know i will pay for it tomorrow.
After eating breakfast we headed over to Sawgrass Recreation Park. Were taking an Airboat ride through the Everglades.
We arrived got our tickets and waited until they called us for our boat.
We got this boat with the back rest. It had wonderful seats. One advantage to having a disability.
We loaded our boat and was on our way. Through the wetlands we headed.
We stopped along our way and this fellow started heading toward us for a hand out.
Paul kept spinning the boat around so we could get pictures and see the big guy.
I bet this guy could take a hand right off
We really enjoyed our boat ride and would have liked it to have been a bit longer.
I was surprised it was a pretty smooth ride.
This is our Captain Paul, he did a great job of driving us and making sure that we took it easy. One time we had to turn sideways and the boat jumped a bit but he got it under control right away to protect my back.
Several fellows were hiding in the water.
We met several other boats .. you see how their seats sat down inside and i think i would of had some trouble getting in and out. As well i don not think the ride would of been near as comfortable for me.
After our boat ride we toured the exhibits.
This beauty was looking for a hand out as well.
The entrance to see the exhibits
Oh My we were greeted by snakes!!
These things like to eat warm blooded creatures.
Past the snakes were one of my favorite reptiles .. YESSS .. i found some turtles!!
Then i found this guy hanging out. I thought he was a neat looking and i admired him from a safe distances.
This little cutie was a big excitement and yes i just had to cuddle with it.
Please honey can i take it home just for a little while?? YES your right, it would love my babies as a snack .. guess we’ll leave it here.
Look at this … well feed i’d say
This peacock let Ray pet him, but when me and a little boy tried to touch it, it bite us and made the little boy cry
they had lots of these guys
Hey some Crocks and not just a couple, they had several
These look scary
enjoying the sun or begging? I wasn’t sure
These little fellows were so cute
They had pot belly pigs
These things are so nosey .. guess they wanted to be heard as well as seen .. snicker
they had some beautiful birds
More Turtles .. don’t ya just wanna squeeze his cheeks?
This guy looked so loveable but i bet he isn’t ..

I had to really work to get a picture of this lil guy. He was hiding under a board. Yes, i had to stand on my head .. hehe
A late lunch early dinner what ever you call it was On The Border Mexican. I had a wonderful taco soup, enchilada chicken, refried beans and Mexican rice.
Another wonderful day in warm Miami, Florida.
