5.00The sights and sounds we're so relaxing to take in. I also enjoyed learning about the flora around us. Mel is a great guide and it helps that she loves this stuff! I didn't expect to be able to walk on a frozen lake at this time of year, so that was a nice surprise. Mel's professional, fun and knows her stuff.
