Yesterday was Day # 2 of Rapunzel's birthday celebration. Skunky surprised her with a Choctawhatchee River and bayou tour! Of course the Dargs went- we heard the word "boat" and started scrambling into position!
Captain Kent Mundy picked us up at the boat ramp at the end of 395, by Eden State Park. We cruised out the bayou, then ROARED across the bay- too much fun! Cruised around the Bunker area- up Bunker Creek (I think it is a creek) to the Choctawhatchee River. It is another world- so pretty it makes you cry. My pictures do not show anything!
We saw alligators, lots of turtles, kingfishers, ospreys (including a pair on the nest), wild pigs, and an owl, who had been watching us for a few minutes before we saw him. Disney's Jungle Cruise has nothing on the real deal!
Captain Kent is loads of funn and has lots of good info. We will be going out again very soon! He also offers fishing, sunset cruises, and flounder gigging trips- you can reach him at (850) 534-0107 or www.southwaltonrivertours.com.
The bird is a Purple Gallinule- it was beautiful. You will have to click on the pic to see it-
