Travel - February 14, 2014 - 
Happy Valentines Day!!

We had another wonderful day in Florida.  Early this morning we woke up for an early breakfast so that we could meet Ralph from the tour company.  He picked us up about 9 o'clock to take us, plus three other couples, out to see the Everglades.  We road a van about 45 minutes outside Ft. Lauderdale to a park called Everglades Holiday Park and Gator Boys Alligator Rescue.

I'm going to keep the words to a minimum tonight and just share a few pictures.  I had a large video to share with you, but technology has over taken me.  Maybe tomorrow I'll have better luck.  It seems that Blogger, Picassa and Google like to continue to play with their programming and videos are no longer user friendly.  I'm also sure I am using a large amount of hotel band width.  Good thing it is late at night!

The photos were taken during our ride on the air-boat.  Some pictures were taken while on that ride and others were take during the Alligator wrestling demonstration and the Alligator rescue "education" show.  All in all, the gators just wanted to bask in the sun and sleep.  Who could blame them???  It was a fairly chilly day by Florida standards; around 67 degrees.  I wore a long sleeve sweater to dinner....buurrr...almost Seattle weather!!  We had a wonderful Valentines dinner with our friends at our favorite local restaurant at Pier 66.  Thanks John...it was GREAT!!!














Tomorrow we board the ship.  It should be a busy day getting our luggage on board, unpacking and getting to know our way around the ship.  

The adventure just keeps getting better!!  Sure glad you are coming along for the ride.
