Florida Trip Day 7

I was disappointed to not paddle today either, but W is still not feeling well.  I was reluctant to go kayaking by myself; too many tales of manatees flipping boats.  So I went on a boat tour just so I could get out on the water.  There were lots of pelicans around, since a fishing boat had just come in.

The boat tour was nothing special but we did see some manatees.  It is starting to warm up so they are leaving the springs.

I had forgotten how built up it is along the river here.  I had hoped to paddle to the Halls River, which I remember as being neat with lots of springs.  But the beginning of the paddle wouldn't be very nice, so I guess we won't be coming back here again.
