Florida Travel: A Glimpse of the Wild at Gumbo Limbo Nature Center
Take a stroll through Gumbo Limbo Nature Center's butterfly garden, where many species of wild butterflies can be seen year-round. The center, which takes its name from the surrounding gumbo limbo trees, displays a variety of native fish and other marine animals in marine aquariums.
Visit the Sea Turtle Rehabilitation Facility to learn about the center's sea turtle patients. Indoor displays feature wildlife indigenous to South Florida and a series of stained glass windows depicting the coastal island as it may have appeared in the 1500s. And it's not just for show. Florida Atlantic University has an onsite marine biology laboratory with a gallery for viewing research projects conducted by university scientists, too.

Gumbo Limbo Nature Center Boca Raton Florida
Gumbo Limbo Nature Center in Boca Raton Florida is a cool area just off A1A near the ocean in South Florida. Mom brought Ethan to see the turtles and the very nice aquariums where he was pleasantly surprised by a SHARK cruising around!! The boardwalk that winds through reeds and woods is really neat with the highlight being the huge tower which overlooks the entire city!! Very much worth the visit if you are in the area.

Gumbo Limbo Nature Center
The fourth place in a row that I visited for the volunteer opportunity.
Gumbo Limbo, though not a zoo, is a very interesting nature preserve filled with lots of native plants and animals. It is also a Sea Turtle rehab center where you can stop by and see them swimming around with other species of fish if you would want to. The baby Sea Turtles are adorable!
I didn't film much here either, but again I tried to make the most of what I did film, so sorry if it seemed a little short. I did take lots of pictures though!

A while back Scott & Conny were hiking in the back swamp of our property and came across a beautiful Gumbo Limbo tree. Scott told me I should see it because it might make a beautiful photograph. And so, off into the swamp Niki & I went with Scott & Conny. As we were making our way into the bush we heard a shout out, and guess who showed up? John Kalafarski! We all had a great time out there pretending we weren't lost :) . Once you find something in the swamp it's easy to loose it again unless you have a GPS, which we never carry, nor does Scott or Conny. It made for a fun trip. Saw lots of swamp I've never seen and even found the Gumbo Limbo tree for me to photograph!
