It was our lucky day. When the ranger at the front gate asked us why we were visiting the park that day, we whispered that we were looking for a letterbox, he then insisted on waving the entrance fee. We grabbed a map and found the parking lot. First we took the scenic boardwalk out to view the the bay and the eastern end of Peridio Key. Then we took the boardwalk into the marsh where were saw an alligator and about 20 turtles swimming together in a small pond. We kept following the clues and felt a little nervous following the sandy path away from the boardwalk to locate the stamp, but we found it and pretty easily, then got back to the boardwak as fast as we could. Safe from all alligator and snake attacks. Boy are we a bunch of wusses!
