Miami

Our last day in Florida we said goodbye to our Airbnb and then explored Miami. So many palm trees, coconuts, and banyan trees!

It was a very rainy day, but we started in Wynwood to see some of the artwork:

From there we headed to Little Havana and swung by Domino Park:

From there we went to a Miami Marlins game:

We saw the bobblehead museum:

They won!

Sadly, on our drive up to the airport, our flight got cancelled:

We eventually rebooked... though we got home much later! Ben loved his fold out tray table. We were very thankful to get back to our own beds!

Miami:

Everglades National Park

After Biscayne, we headed to Everglades National Park. 

We headed to the visitor station...

We stopped at the Pa-Hay-Okee overlook:

We hiked the Mahogany Hammock Trail:

Then we headed to Flamingo to try to see some manatees...unsuccessfully:

Then we headed to another visitor center to pick up a tram tour where we saw our first alligator!

From the tram tour (which was excellent), we continued seeing alligators until we reached almost 100! I think Ben clocked our final number around 98.

Babies!

We got to stop at the Shark Valley lookout tower:

We wandered the ponds nearby:

We saw lots of birds - herons:

And then we headed to an airboat tour. I had never been on one before, but it was very fun and unique!

Turtles!

After the boat tour we got to hold Rambo (note Chris chose not to participate):

But we did swing by Miami Brewing Company on the way home:
