| Ride the Ducks! |
| The Delaware River is home to many refineries, container ship docks and other ship traffic. While we waited, a huge ship of possible Canadian origin floated by with a pilot boat in hot pursuit. I didn't get to see the pilot get on or off but you can see the ladder he uses. All this as the ships steam down the river. They don't slow down any for his arrival or departure! |

| Shortly after the ship disappeared behind the pier to our right, another Duck arrived in need of a Captain. Vic invited me on and I jumped at the chance. Following him up the ladder at the stern, I plppoed into the rear seat and he went up to the bow to drive. The CDL driver did the spiel for all the water attractions and trhere are plenty! The orange things on the roof are life jackets (PFDs). |
