River cruise to Silver Springs Florida from MFL was a journey of about 6 hours, with 12 boats taking part, cruising up the Ocklawaha River and stopping off at Nelsons Fish Camp and Moss Bluff Lock along the way.
This is the true Florida, and this particular journey started just 40 miles north-west of Orlando and about 50 miles north of Disney World.
This is on the Harris Chain of lakes, which includes Lake Dora in Mount Dora, the Dora Canal in Tavares which is the geographical center of Florida, Lake Eustis in the Golden Triangle, Dead River, Lake Harris and Little Lake Harris, Haines Creek, Lake Griffin near Leesburg and north up the Ocklawaha river to Silver Springs and through the Ocala National Forest to Jacksonville.
The journey in this video is about 50 miles, starting in MFL (Mid-Florida-Lakes), a gated community near Leesburg on highway 44, and very close to the Burrell Lock on Haines Creek, and ending at Silver Springs near to Ocala.
I hope this video gives you an idea of the beautiful outdoor life enjoyed all year round by Florida residents.
My advice to everyone who visits the Central Florida area is to make the time to check out the natural Florida up here, no more than an hours drive from the Disney parks, and you will never be disappointed.
Be sure to take your video camera.
