It is 100+ degrees in America and Europe, but in Iceland, there is snow in the Westfjords.

We are driving around, in jackets, admiring fjords like Arnarfjörður (one of Iceland's most spectacular), bird watching (puffins, Artic terns), and eating the best fish.

Crocodile at Flamingo

Yes, there is crocodile in the water. 

Everglades HOT HOT HOT

Everglades is so HOT in April that  we stay cooped up in our hotel room from 11:30 to about 3.

However in the morning and afternoons and early evenings we prowl and find birds, like Roseate Spoonbills, Swallow-tailed Kites, Wood Storks, and more.

And of course lots of Alligators.  At the less visited end of the park we found the rare and endangered American Crocodile.  We also saw a Cottonmouth and a Diamond-backed Rattlesnake. Both venomous.

Nice sunsets and barbecue too.

Alabama

Alabama is a place where they speak a foreign language, but they seem to understand English. Their tv transmits in English. They do some really fine barbecue.
