Turns out all of Florida isn't like this house we drove by. But it did make for a great shot as we got lost in the Everglades.

The whole reason for the trip was to visit my cousin Peter. We had a fantastic time catching up, exploring the Everglades, spending time with the dogs and visiting local parks.

Here is Jenna (person), Nala (dog on left), Peter (person) and Rowdy (dog on right).

Peter makes a new friend (thankfully, not still alive).

We rode around the Everglades in an air boat like this (which Peter insisted on calling a "fan boat"). Ours was a little bigger but tons of fun. We only sank down 1 inch into the water so we could go straight through most of the marshy areas.

From what I saw, the Everglades are chock-full of mangrove trees.

This was one of the marshy-ier parts we passed through. The water is only 1.5 feet deep in most of the Everglades.

Our guide caught some blue crabs in a trap and took them out to show us. I was amazed to see how truly blue they are!

This is another of my favorite shots from the Everglades.

Here is some native wildlife. Unfortunately, I can't for the life of me remember whether it's a heron or an egret. Still so pretty!
