Just got back from a trip to the usa which encompassed Miami, LA and San Francisco. Absolutely fantastic.
The highlight, other than seeing family, was a ranger led canoe trek through the alligator infested mangrove swamps in the Everglades. Just wow. Although I did have second thoughts when our canoes ran aground and I had to wade through the swamp dragging the canoe while being surrounded by alligators, pythons, boas and other assorted critters that you cant see through murky water. Did I mention I was barefoot?
I can also say that Scotish weather has a sense of humour and its evil. On coming back I said "its not too cold". 30 seconds later it was hailing *sob*.
Wonder if I can get a job as a beach bum?
