    Great Day to float down the river. It was packed because of the heat but the crowd was friendly and made the excursion more interesting.

    Terrible experience
    Booked a tubing experience and was told it takes 2.5 hours - WRONG!!! Many people (including my adult son and I) were furious that it actually takes 4 hours (if you're willing to paddle furiously). When we got there, we were asked if we had been there before, to which I…
