But there were a few freaky things too...
a mob of fiddler crabs...
a little lizard who just stared at us as we walked by...
creepy little crabs tht climb trees...
and a strangler fig tree killing an adjacent palm...
It really is a neat place, and I'm sure we'll go back again next winter, but today was just too hot to enjoy it all.

Can't recall exactly which morning, but earlier this week, I took the bus over to Magic Kingdom. As the bus passed under the big MK archway (where the CMs are in the booths), I noticed a sign: Premium Parking is available today. $40.00. 
(I think the regular, general parking is $20.)
There was probably something about this in N&R at some point before, but actually seeing that sign out the bus window made my jaw drop.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.

You know what's funny?

Yeah. That has been around for a bit. I thought it would be gone by now due to lack of use. lol

Aha. It seems to have gone up in price. Must be very popular!

Ha! Now I remember your post about this. It's unreal that it's actually gone up even higher in price. Heck the cost of admission to the park is around $100 these days. Maybe they had to raise the (parking) premium price to make it appear to be more "premium" for special folks?

I'll be hanging out in the winter Olympic thread if ever you want to join.
We have free snow tube rides and slushies.

Seeing as I was in EPCOT for the Flower and Garden Festival, I decided to go over to the Festival Center (aka the deceased, WOL pavilion 
). There were a number of various plant displays, and some video screens.
Saw a small crowd seated in front of a stage in there, so I went over to see this "nationally known garden celebrity" (I can't recall his name). I never realized there were nationally known garden celebrities.
So, I'm sitting there, (I know nothing about plants), listening to this guy on stage talking about plants. He'd announce different ones and hold them up. The (primarily senior) audience would erupt into applause, and some would actually yell out favorites, "Bromeliads!! Bromeliads!!".
I had this deer-in-the-headlights look on my face. There are actually plant groupies out there!! 
Who would have thought this group existed?!

We chose to do a trail that winds along the shore of Tampa Bay in places. There's some really cool bridges throughout the path...
I love this photo. Wooden bridges are not only attractive, I like how they feel when you walk on them. It's fun to climb towers, too. What a pretty area that is.

We run into that with bird watchers. I know a few species, but as you may have noticed, my primary focus here is my bald eagles. We've met some great people here who enjoy them like we do, but every once in a while,we run into the basic walking encyclopedias of the bird kingdom who have to tell you all about the yellow-bellied ruby-throated triple-winged super-sonic nuthatchers they saw in last year's mating season...
