USA Backpacking - Florida

12/22/2015
The first and second day in Florida, we spent our days in Universal Studio Florida. It was awesome! I have been a fan of Universal Studio when I was a kid, and I have been to Universal Studio Singapore for three times. The reason why I love this theme park especially is because of the Harry Potter and Dr. Seuss theme.

We drove to Miami and spent the day on the beach.

Key West activity - Parasailing

We took a ferry to Dry Tortugas National Park from Key West port. It used to be a prison and the only way to go there is by this ferry. The ferry was about two hours from the mainland. We were able to explore the island and even snorkeling.
The package that we paid for included with snorkeling gear, so we did not need to rent any gears. Which is a plus!

Everglades National Park is 5 hours from the Key West. If you would like to experience tropical life in United States, this is the place to begin with. It reminds me a lot of Malaysia

Weeki Wachee river is famous with their mermaid performance. The theme park is not as big as Universal Studio, but we get to experience something that is totally different. We even had the chance to swim in the river and it was a very cool experience. It was a bummer as we did not have the chance to kayak as it was super crowded that day.

That is the end of my journey in Florida, the trip did not end yet. We still have Georgia and Tennessee!
