After we left Long Key state park we wound up at Flamingo campground in the Everglades National Park. We spent 3 nights there, and we were 40 miles from the nearest cell tower, so no cell phone or internet. It was way back in the swamp. The first night we had no electric, and had to stand in line for an hour to get an electric campsite for the next 2 nights. They said they had alligator, crocodile, and manatee, but didn't see any. Seen a lot of birds mostly common. Rode bikes a lot, temp in the 80's, lots of sun, sprinkled one day. We spent several hours watching Osprey feed their young on many nests. Today, saturday we drove north to a camground north of Vero Beach. Here are the pics.
