Hiking the Florida National Scenic Trail

We got up relatively early, because when the sun is on the car it gets unbearably hot. We started hiking the trail and soon saw lots of different vegetation and animals. It was extremely scenic, but when at times we stopped because of strange noises. You get pretty cautious after reading about the alligators and bears. At our first short banana break we already discovered some ticks, but we would find more later. Although difficult I killed two walking on my legs.
We continued about 4 hours, but the trail is far too long to walk all the way, so we did a little longer break at a lake (watching out for alligators of course) and walked back the same way.
We arrived at the car about 5 p.m. with aching feet after walking for about 24 kilometers.
