On Saturday we did another canoe paddle downstream, this time just to Hog Island making it only a 2-1/2 hr trip which was more to Peggy’s liking.
This weekend the campground got pretty full but by 11 am Sunday everyone was gone again. We also started to get ready to leave here on Monday morning to eventually get to the Orlando Airport to fly home for the Holidays but first we will stop at Wekiva Springs State Park for three nights.
If we drove directly to the Orlando Airport from here it’s only a 2-1/2 hour drive. Last year we spent a few days at Wekiva Springs and paddled the 8-1/2 mi Rock Springs Run into the Wekiva River. It is an amazing wilderness area just north of Orlando and for those without a canoe or kayak there is a outfitter, King’s Landing, that rents boats and does the shuttle. A warning, it is very popular on weekends in warmer weather due to the fact it is in the middle of millions of people and visitors.
We will take our time getting to the campground. We need to do laundry, grocery shop and fill our propane tank along the way.
love the hammock photo
