| Not the greatest photo in terms of being completely in focus, but I liked it anyway. |
First stop was the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge visitor centre to get a map and trail recommendations. After one short hike (and getting a better taste of the heat and humidity!) I decided the suggestion of a "drive" wasn't a bad one. The Black Point Wildlife drive was well worth it as I saw several birds and traffic was light enough that I often just stopped in the middle of the road to get out and take photos. And there were other places along the drive to stop and do a couple more short hikes.

| Mostly, all that could be seen of the manatees was their backs, tails and their noses when they came up for a breath of air. |
