My family and I took a trip to the Everglades National Park Visitor Center in Homestead, Florida. It was a cloudy day, the humidity was high, and the smell of rain was in the atmosphere. When we first arrived, we walked inside the visitor center reading all about the history of the Everglades national Park, the ecosystems, animals, and the current threats of the environment. We than took a short 30 minute tour with one of the volunteer employees that showed us around and pointed out several popular species throughout the Everglades. While we traveled through the environment there were several moments where it was completely silent and we all listened to the nature. I can speak on behalf of my family when I say that it was a very relaxing, enjoyable, and informational experience. After the tour we sat at one of the picnic tables that were on a balcony overlooking the spectacular view and ate lunch. Overall, the field trip to the Everglades National Park Visitor Center was a wonderful and memorable time.
