    I was recommended to come here when I first moved to FL. This video reminded me and I went out and have a great time.. saw a bunch of manatees that kept doing barrel rolls next to my kayak! Thank Rick and Nikki!

    Yay! I remember talking to y'all about this beautiful place. The unlimited pancakes for $5 is such an awesome deal. I love swimming there but it does get busy during the summer season.

      I always knew manatees were cute but now I think I love them even more. They have to be the sweetest aquatic mammals in the river💕

    Hearing "Pull the doors and drop the top" again after so long just makes me happy 😊. Another fun outing with you guys. I swam with manatees years ago (when it wasn't controlled), they're huge when you're in the water next to them. They act like big puppies, coming in for pats and scratches. It was an amazing experience.

    Hey. There you two. Have an idea that would help use orientate use visitors to Florida. When you tell us where you are taking us insert a map and mark the location and route from Orlando as the point of beginning most of the visitors like us would typically stay there anyways. Thanks for what you are doing we are loving it.😎

      Hey guys! I am actually in the process of trying to figure out how to use a map “plug-in” graphic that will do exactly that for my editing software. Our graphic designer Jennie is working on it as well. Thank you for letting us know that it would be worthwhile to add it to the vids!

    Hubby and I went kayaking here this morning and saw quite a few gators in water. Was like real life frogger but with gators. FYI…that skull inside the gift shop is a bear skull It was labeled.

    Very cool video! I would be interested in it from a historical perspective. I wondered if you might want to edit the title and add manatee sighting to the title - that was really exciting and appeals to out-of-staters like me. Thanks for the cool videos!

      These areas seem very popular and a fear is the ROI could be low if I wanted to sell. Do you like any areas that are up and coming but currently not as popular?
