Tourists at work The next site was just as amazing.  We got to the end of the boardwalk on the Anhinga Trail and found the feeding frenzy of photographers.
There's a lot of saw grass and water in the Everglades. It's amazing how your perspective is affected when you see the roadside sign that proclaims your altitude to be 3 feet above mean sea level! Everglades
Flipper's Grand Daughter We couldn't miss the chance to meet Flipper's Granddaughter while we were in the Keys.  So we drove ourselves to the Dolphin Research Center on Grassy Key.  When these active, gregarious creatures peek at you out of the water you can feel how intelligent they are.  In a past incarnation the Dolphin Research Center was a private home of a man who collected dolphins.  This is where the original Flipper was trained and filmed.  The Dolphin Research Center is a nonprofit education and research facility.
