Mom and Dad took me to a park for a really nice long smelly walk through trails today. Woohoo! I finally got to leave the campground. The park is Lagoon Greenway located along the Indian River Lagoon in the southern part of Vero Beach on the mainland. It is part of the Indian River Aquatic Reserve.
The walking trails are about 4 miles total with a short portion a boardwalk over the wet mangroves. The rest is through dry mangroves and hammocks.
Here Dad’s letting me sniff my way down the trail:

The end of the boardwalk. Dad in his always crooked hat!
On the way back, we spotted an amphibian that looked like this:
When he ate something, he looked like this:
There were some beautiful plants around, and the mangroves with the sunlight dancing on them were beautiful, according to Mom!
When we got back to our campground, I was pretty tuckered out. I took a nice long nap before my dinner.
