Once we arrived back at our vehicle in Tarpon Springs and looked at the forecast again, we decided to make the long drive further south and east to Everglades National Park, arrived well past midnight, pitched tent and fought off the mosquitoes. The next morning, we found ourselves surrounded by tall pine trees.
Plans for the day included the Anhinga Trail (alligators, anhinga, black vultures, herons, etc.) and Key Biscayne.
