Miami, FL (USA)

[Recurrent Simulator Training during the day.] Sean and I checked out another side of the Everglades today - there was time enough to drive over to the Gulf Coast side of the Everglades. We drove along a lonely section of highway (US-41) - the only thing out there, really, was boats. We had dinner at a great seafood place in a little section of Everglades City. On the way home, we took a dirt road detour through the park. As the sun set, we saw a large black cat (panther ?) - we still aren't sure whether it was something exotic or more "normal" wildlife...  On the way back to the Residence Inn Coconut Grove, we got gas at Gator Express (1840).  [Stayed local for the evening.]
