We drove an hour east to Christmas, to visit Orlando Wetlands Park which is a little like the Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive, but without cars – it’s all walking, on boardwalks or dirt paths around the water. We saw loads of birds, small and bigger fish (some in their nest!), as well as a few alligators (but it was really hot so most ‘gators were hidden underwater); we did also see [only] one turtle … here’s lots of photos!
It’s a beautiful and quiet place to visit and I think we will return – perhaps when it’s less hot!
