Boat – Eskildoodle Photos and Feelings

Cars Afloat

While aboard a pontoon boat near Disney Springs we saw this Amphicar driving on, of all things, water! Immediately three words came to mind: “Blub, blub, blub,” as in the sound of something sinking. But no, it merrily bobbed its way about the water and is a popular attraction at the springs. Amphicars were madeContinue reading “Cars Afloat”

Pond Puppy

Poppy, at the front of the boat seems, to be smiling and enjoying the breeze blowing by. At times her ears would rise up in a Dumbo-like pose as if she were about to fly but fortunately, she never rose up into the air like the animated pachyderm.

We reached Egmont, British Columbia, the second day, and after mooring at the marina, we witnessed this scene. I had never imagined a Corvette towing a boat, letContinue reading “Sport Utility “Vette””

Boat Parade

Saturday night we were guests on a boat to watch the lighted boat parade on Henderson Lake at Inverness, Florida. We had a great time and didn’t even get wet! I posted a video of the festivities on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/Paa0b4Z00Ws #boat #parade #christmas
