Naples-Everglades
Naples is cozy town. Beautiful ocean, well designed town, and hi-class retails. I understand american people love this kind of town. Marco island too.
everglades Gulf Coast Visitor Center is northern part of everglades national park. small visitor info and boat launch are located. i drove to island, but nothing significant. I took wild life and manglobe boat tour. a girl at ticket booth told me, we should see arigator, but we could not. tour does not visit deeper side of manglobe that disappointed me.

From orando, it took almost 2 hours to the town where we have conference. Western shore town was also chilly. But, white sand shore is really nice. This is my first time to see gulf of mexico.
I completed analysis and had presented preliminary version in japan, so I have enough time to prepare presentation in english. I got some question and/or comment. After my presentation, a phd student contacted. We should keep in touch!

After 20 hours since i left home, i flew into orlando! It is much chilly than expected. Anyway, I arrived florida! Sleep well, next morning, i visited Kennedy space center. I expected to see real space shuttle very closely, what I could see was top of the shuttle on the launch pad few miles away. The shuttle will launch middle of february. We see assemble factory of the shuttle from bus! Why don"t you let us see more closely. Any way, we enjoyed very much.
I visited florida mall, found some interesting stuff. I tried to visit another mall, that was beginning of night mare. I passed international drive,,,then some toll road. I had no good map, getting dark. I don't know where I was. I reached airport. Around airport, I lost again. If I didn"t asked at gas station, I should be dead!
At last, I reached my hotel! Long day.
