Personal Reflection # 7

Today June 26th, as I deceided to spend sometime outdoors relaxing and enjoying the environment, I figured what better way to do this than visitig the Everglades which would also make me complete GR #8. So my husband and I packed some snacks and we headed for the Everglades. We had a wonderful time walking around sightseeing, taking pictures, talking about different things we saw in the area. We drove through the city and got on a long stretch of road that had water on both sides of the road. We say may people fishing so kept driving for a while. Then came the rain, it started pouring so heavily that it was white out conditions and we could hardly see. The wind started blowing and the ocean came splashing up on the side of the road. I got very scared and decided we needed to get out of there. I was scared for many reasons, I cannot swim, as far as I could see it was all water on both sides of the road with no building in sight, the rain was pouring down as if someone was throwing buckets of water on the car and the wind was blowing very heavily and splashing the water from both sides on to the road. I was so relieved when we finally got out of there.
