Day 2

We drove 45 minutes to the Everglades to meet our amazing guide, Garl, of Garls Everglades Adventures. He took us to some of the most incredible spots in the Everglades to see alligators, snakes, manatees and birds out in their wild homes. It was truly unlike any experience I’ve ever done. We trekked 2 hours through the swamps on foot. Then we kayaked for 2 more hours.

My mother lived in London for a year when she was a college student, so I thought it would be fun to go back there with her. I've always wanted to visit the West End as well and see a play in the theatre district.
