Throwing Bread to Fish and Ducks Never Gets Old

I have been coming here since I was a Boy Scout in the 1950's. For the last 10 years we have brought the grand kids here and they have never had a bad time.

Watch the ducks walk on fish!!!

I love this place and have been there many times. I loved it as a kid and still love it as an adult. It is fun to watch the fish eating bread and the birds as well!
