Old Bahia Honda Rail Bridge
The old bridge was originally built between 1905 and 1912 by Henry Flagler as part of the Overseas Railroad. The bridge was damaged during the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935.
In 1980, a new four-lane bridge was constructed just a few hundred yards north of the old bridge, replacing the old route. Two of the truss spans of the old bridge were later removed to allow boat traffic.
The original bridge still remains, though it has fallen into a state of disrepair and signs warning boats of falling debris.

Lizard
We stopped at Old Bahia Bridge, my husband saw this lizard on the edge and I was able to lean over and take pictures.
Alligators
We got very lucky, we took a air boat ride in the everglades and in the natural habitat we spotted several alligators, one lifted its head right next to the boat and me- I kind of jumped a bit… but I was also able to spot this alligator with a baby on on it. Experience to remember. 
A snowy egret
This snowy egret was enjoying the breeze at Naples pier.
Pier of Naples, FL
The city of Naples was lovely, but the pier and beach were great. I like piers like these, they have something appealing that speaks to me.

Sunset Point, Key West
We spent time at sunset point in Key West prior the sunset enjoying the entertainment by various artist and acts.
Sunset at Key West
I’m back from my holiday, totally enjoyed the beautiful weather in Florida. We saw lots and lots of wonderful things, met lovely people and enjoyed time spent with friends. Holiday…already waiting forward to the next one.
Nature, birds, animals, butterflies …I have tons of pictures to go through. I will start with this one of a sunset in Key West – more of this will be coming your way.

Hi all,
