We are absolutely in ❤with our condo for the next couple of months (was a great idea to try somewhere out before deciding where we want to stay long term). However, our first day we walked down to the beach (takes 5 mins) and noticed that to get there we have to walk over a marsh or swamp like body of water-not a fan.
There is a sign that says ‘watch out for alligators and snakes’ which we noticed when we came across a very awkward raccoon quietly walking over the boardwalk bridge our first evening…
Not expecting too see any alligators for quite awhile after living here you can see from above that we did come across one our third day here. It is much closer to the path than the picture does justice. And we both no longer walk across the bridge but rather stay in the street.
