Day 98 4/25/24 Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA

Florida just went through a Once in a thousand year event… Too much rain after a long drought… Seems every where there’s a weather phenomena lately… But we were glad we were welcomed with a wonderful weather today

We joined an excursion and went for a airboat ride at the Everglades (river/swamps)… A very unique scenery of Florida of Unesco status

Airboat are the only boat that can travel on the Shallows (2 feet deep water) and the others needs to stay on the canals (highways of the Everglades). They are very loud and they glides on water…. Super fun… We really enjoyed the unique landscape of the Everglades

Next stop is the Flamengo Gardens, a 60 acre botanical garden and wildlife sanctuary

Alligators and pink (more like orange actually) flamingos together … Only in Florida!!

Fun facts : Alligators (messy teeth) and crocodile (neat teeth) coexist in Florida… We are the world ✌️

The Florida stop is short and sweet… Did not have a chance to eat or drink locally but we will live😆… Oh the Flamengo Garden crew showed great hospitality by giving us ice cream!!

Came back to a ship with many new passengers just got onboard and running around trying to figure out where everything is, which side is port side(left side) and which is starboard side… Makes me feel very old like the seniors first day back to school

All aboard and ready to go… Bye bye America and .. See you in two weeks after we cross and checked out the Panama, Colombia, Costa Rica and Mexico!!!

So long Florida!!
