Yesterday I wrote about the mysterious creature with the 6 inch mouth that rose above the water. Today, we saw it again, but this time up close. It was a giant sea turtle. That makes for 5 sightings of sea turtles since we've been here. Cool, very cool.

Well, I fished for 3 days, and never got a single nibble. Meanwhile, all around us are boats with fishermen that are catching something. I'll keep trying. The nice thing about fishing is that it's a nice pass time, even if you don't get any bites. Still, it would be nice to figure out why we are the world's unluckiest fishermen. We have the right tackle, and we ask local successful fishermen what they do, and we try to copy them. The difference between us and them though is that they succeed
where we fail.

Tomorrow morning at first light we head further north toward Everglades City.
