The Black Waters of Okeefenokee Swamp

Okefenokee Swamp

Who: Coral
Where: Okeefenokee Swamp

Why: Ahh, once my Dad and I are through paddling the main trails, we find this little inlet and, making sure we don't crash hard, manuever to see a big ol' bird, some huge cypress, or an erie alligator. It's cool because it gets my Dad in a Wilderness Area. I Love it because it is SO DIFFERENT.
