It was Saturday morning and they have free Kayak tour at 9 am. Little that we know that it was booked for the whole year. But even with out the Kayak it was a fun experience.

As you enter the park you find your self on a very beautiful parking area. Its a wide open area. It has trees with moss on them and looks very picturesque.

The walking trail was amazing as well. Very beautiful but have to warn you guys there were mosquitos out there. So keep moving or carry a spray of insect repellent. Wait for the next image to load its a GIF image and it takes a while to load its a bridge path to the water.
