Tuesday 21st January we docked in Miami.

My only wish was to see Everglades. It is something we do not have in Europe.The contraption we sailed on was handled magnificently by an amiable captain.

 

There was a massive croc swimming.

Even a bigger one sunbathing.

There was a show. Three crocs heavily sedated for our benefit, I found it uncomfortable to watch and was happy when the charade ended.

But the most unpleasant shark was the tour guide telling us it was a "service industry" and to give her and the driver money. I did, $5, she did not  thank me obviously expecting more and I regretted instantly giving her  even that.

The weather was glorious.
