Cruisin'

Last evening I went on a charter cruise with my colleagues.  Our broker chartered a water taxi and provided food and drinks for us as a 'thank you' for meeting our goals and working hard this summer. 

The water taxi picked us up at the canal wharf and slowly glided up the canal to the inlet and then up a river.  It was a warm evening but not hot, and there was a nice breeze so the trip was not only beautiful but enjoyable.

 

There were enough seats for everyone to sit but I found myself standing most the time, which afforded me the ability to talk with different colleagues and take in the views from both sides and the rear of the water taxi.

 Photos just can't capture the natural beauty of the river, marsh, and tributaries we saw on our 2 hour cruise.

They don't call it the 'Sunset Cruise' for nothing...

I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would and will definitely do it again before they discontinue service in the fall.
