Suwannee River X Blog BY ALEX WILDS


           The first thing that I noticed about Florida was how well it was kept. There wasn’t much trash in the state parks, the roads were in really good condition, and the campsites were the best I’ve ever stayed in. The campsites were normally screened in platforms and they had water. The only problem was the way the water tasted. It tasted like sulfur or chemicals.

            The canoeing was really fun. The river flowed at 2 miles per hour so paddling was a breeze compared to the Everglades. We did a 20 plus mile day once. We guessed we went about 27 miles. I say we went about 25 miles. There was a solo boat with only one person. I didn’t get the solo boat but others did. We went down some white water in the canoes. I was guiding and Isaac was taking a video.
            We saw a lot of wild life on the Suwannee. We saw mostly turtles and birds, and sometimes a fish jump or a lizard on a tree. We didn’t see any snakes or alligators witch was a downer.
            We went to Lazy Moon Pizza again because it’s really good. After Lazy Moon Pizza we went to tour Rollins College for a few people that are looking at colleges.
