Returning to the dock in Everglades City, FL
During a visit to Everglades City, FL I took an airboat ride through the mangroves. Weather was beautiful with a temperature around 70 degrees with clear skies and no bugs. At times the airboat got up to 35 mph but it had to go slow in the mangrove tunnels. Saw an alligator in the wild on the ride.
