A
one hour cruise on the Myakka River was a great way to spend the
afternoon and to celebrate the arrival of a replacement driver's
license. Someone, and you know who you are, did a huge favour by going
to the DMV and getting those valuable documents here this morning. Thank
you.
The river cruise boat meanders along the twisty Myakka River while the narrator provides those who want to listen with some interesting information. For example, did you know that a female alligator lays 40 to 50 eggs after a gestation period of 60 days? Fortunately only about 10% of those hatched survive beyond the first year.
The river is a protected area and so the beauty of the vegetation along its banks remains untouched. Particularly intriguing are the air plants that sit on the huge live oaks and yet take nothing from them. They get their nourishment from the air, dew and dead insects. Fun day.
