all in all, a great trip. I highly recommend a kayak trip down the Chass, there are several more springs that we didnt have time to visit

Great pics

Nice pictures, lot of people think of Orlando or Miami as florida, you guys found the real magic kingdom.

Looks like a great time, good pictures.

Thanks for sharing those!

Very nice!

Did you see any manatee?

Hey Charlie, I look almost as good as you!
