This is the only subtropical area in the US. We entered the park from Fl. City and drove 40 miles through the everglades to Flamingo on the most southern tip of mainland Fl. You travel though all kinds of terrian and plant life and through fresh, brackish and salt water. What a great place, to us it was kind of magical with all the different plants, birds and animals. The primative campground at Flamino was located right on the shores of the Florida Bay which contains hundreds of island. The rangers had programs for the visitors going on all day. We took in lectures, bird walks, canoe trips, etc., had to push Nita a little to get her to go for some of them, but after we went she enjoyed them.
Pics, Nita relaxing at Flamingo, Mahogany tree, mahogany seed pods- they break open and seeds similar to maple seeds flutter to the ground, and black vulture on top of an rv - signs are posted warning of the damage the vultures can to to tops of rv's, they like to pull out rubber and plastic materials.
