Shark Valley, Everglade National Park



Still haven't updated tons of stuff but I did want to post these photos at the year's end. Simian and I saw tons of birds at the Everglades Shark Valley that made it to our Life list - Abhingas, Great and Little Blue Herons, Back Vultures, Limpkins and Great Egrets. We didn't see any Gators because it was the wrong season for them but it was a gorgeous visit nonetheless. I expected the Everglades to be much more marshy but it turned out to be very flat land. Apparently the water level rises a lot more but it was fairly dry when we went. A gorgeous trip.

It's been a while since I posted because things have just been kind of busy! I was reading about Art Basel in Miami though and wanted to post these. Our friends told us to check out the Wynwood District - they said it was still a little rough, but we felt it was pretty okay (despite the sneakers on power lines :)). These were some of the gorgeous murals we saw.
