This morning we drove about 15 miles south of Tallahassee to Edward Ball Wakulla Springs State Park. This is one of world's deepest freshwater springs and the mouth of the Wakulla River. We took a river-boat tour. The weather was slightly cool but clear and sunny. It was a perfect morning to see birds, turtles & alligators. The water was crystal clear.
Not only is this a wildlife sanctuary, but many movies were been filmed here -- Tarzan (starring Johnny Weismueller), The Creature from the Black Lagoon and Airport 77.
After the boat tour, we toured the 1937 lodge and ate a good southern meal of fried chicken.
