FL19 - Flamingos Day

Today we went to the Flamingo Gardens in nearby Davie. 

We have been a couple of times before and it always a good half day checking out the animals and birds.

Glade and human friend

Animals like Glade. A four year old alligator that came to the gardens after being rescued. Along with many others he was part of an egg theft and kept in a Tupperware and us far too small for his age.

Others are generally rescues and brought in by the public. Even the black bear!

American Black Bear - rescued

Plus the birds the park is named after.

They have mostly kept the park for native species.

Elvis - large male alligator

But there are some imports. Such a peafowl.

And then back to the apartment via my usual visit to Walmart for Fruit of the Loom underpants. Sadly Hanes have taken over and no FotL to be seen in briefs!! So bought only one packet of Hanes. End of an era.

I watched Tottenham beat Man City in the Champions League semi final. Bah! And Claire had a doze. 

Dinner tonight is the Chinese we didn't eat last night. We over ordered and have around half left.

Tomorrow is our last full day here in Weston. So we need to think of something to do.

We fly home Friday but not until late so we could stay here later than a normal check out. Officially we don't actually check out until Saturday.
