On the way to Royal Palm in the @evergladesnps there is a small sign that reads “Nike Missile site” and not much else. Most people drive right by it but it’s worth a stop if you have an hour to kill. The history buffs will be familiar with this site due to its significance in the Cold War. The US stationed anti-air missiles in response to Cuban missile crisis to counter a potential attack from Cuba. Now the sites are used a small museum within the park. (Swipe to see photos) On the way to the site there was a large area of water with red cat tails which tempted my curiosity. All the way in Florida I found a patch of land that reminded me of Cape Cod in MA #florida #everglades #evergladesnationalpark #nationalparks #canonusa #tamronusa #thenorthface #patagonia #fjallraven #explore #moodygrams #illgrammers #agameoftones #travelphotography #amazingdestination #hiketheglobe #wildlifephotography #traveltheworld #travel #travelchannel #booking #expedia #tripadvisor #kayak #canon_photos #...
