Today the four of us left the campground at 9:30 and ran some errands (beer, WiFi, etc.) on the way to Shark Valley where we had reserved tickets for the 2:00 tram tour. It's a round-about route from Flamingo to Shark valley and takes us out of the park, then back in. Without errands, the drive takes over two hours.
We decided to head for Shark Valley after doing the errands and get a bite to eat at the snack bar before getting on the tram. Well, Marsha and I thought we remembered a snack bar at Shark Valley. Wrong! So we got our tickets and went back to the car to scrounge around for something to eat before getting on the tram. Between the vending machines and what we found in the car, we had granola bars, two apples (split four ways) and four bananas. Great lunch!
We saw quite a few gators even though the water was very high due to all the rain. They got over ten inches in south Florida during January when they usually get about two inches.
After the tram tour, we went to a restaurant down the road from the entrance to Shark Valley and had an early dinner at around 4:30. On the way back to the camp, I stopped to take some shots of the sunset. It was a good day.
Enjoy the pictures.
