Even though I’ve been here to the Everglades before there is always something new when you go back. This time around I even got to go to some of the same places that I went the first time. They were Pavilion Key, Picnic Key, and Watson Key. We also stayed at a new campsite to me called Lopez Key. That was a lot of fun to go to those campsites on the islands in the mangroves, but we also stayed on some beach campsites where it was a bit windier. That was a pretty good thing because the wind would blow away the biting insects and leave us alone even though we weren’t always wearing bug spray because most of use ran out of the stuff. In order the keys that we went to are Lopez, Watson, Pavilion, and Picnic.
The second place that we went to was Watson Key. Watson key is the one with all the old farm equipment, fireplace, and water holder. It was also one of the only ones that we were camping on dirt and not sand which was a very nice commodity. That was also the day that caught a few catfish and in the night get the cast net destroyed by some raccoons.
I believe on the third day was when we went to Pavilion Key which is a beach campsite and stayed there for two days. While we were there on the second day when we were fishing Aaron and me caught a three to three-and-a-half foot Black tip Shark. We also caught a combination of eight catfish that were mostly caught by me. We also did some school while we were there but mostly either went swimming, fishing, or exploring.
In conclusion there are many things that I will always remember that is good and bad from this expedition for example going to the Lazy Moon to see some of Doug’s friends and to get some great pizza in Orlando Florida.
