NB: I can't figure out how to cut this entry because I don't have access to this Blog's template or settings.

Kyle, what's the deal?

That is the most unique boat ride scenery I have ever seen, cool.

What do you mean by cut, Joe?

joe man said...

Yeah, it was a good time.

By cut I mean a linked entry where it just has some intro words and then a link to the longet entry. That way it wouldn't display all of the pictures and eat up the whole page. It's not really a big deal, but if you're on a slow connection or dial-up it might take a while to load.

It's possible to do this in Blogger, but you need to mess with the HTML template, and I apparently lack access to that.

I love this. And am jealous. Damn you all for your good times!

Did anyone go in the water?

joe man said...

I have more, higher-resolution photos, but I didn't want to post them all here.

No one went in the water, thankfully. The canoe rental people actually suggested we bring hand sanitizer in case we touched a significant amount of water. Apparently upstream it's pretty clean, but in the canal part it's nasty.

You can't really tell, but down by Zug Island, the water was a chalky blue. It actually looked like the water from the "It's a Small World" ride at Disneyworld.

Joe, I granted you admin privileges, as well as everyone else...should be able to edit now hopefully.

Zug Island water - wow. Should have dipped a sponge in it, then let it sit in a jar and see what grows.
