Wed. we left for Inverness. Sue brought her car with kayak & bike also (we left Dan home sick). She took us to Weeki Wachee where we put in (took her car farther north so we only had to paddle one way) and did a nice paddle on the Weeki Wachee River. Someday I'll have to go back and check out the mermaid show since I was interested in becoming one of the Weeki Wachee mermaids when I was in high school!
The water was such a beautiful shade of turquoise the whole way. Saw lots of fish and some birds but no manatees.
Sue in her kayak.
Sue stayed overnight with Jud & Barbara also and on Thurs morning we did a bike ride north on the Withlacoochee Bike Trail before Sue left to go back home. I rode 12.5 miles before I turned around and headed back (25.5 total) but Bruce & Barbara went to the end of the trail so they put in 37 miles.
Today Bruce and I did a paddle on a nearby lake. We only stayed out for an hour since it was quite windy and temps started to drop. We did find some areas where the wind wasn't too bad.
Cypress trees growing out of the water.
Calmer water back on here.
Lots of lily pads in this area.
Getting back to the boat launch was choppy.
