I took on the cross-VB canoe trail yesterday with Dun and his son. The three of us were blown away. We put in near the bridge at Potters Rd and finished up off Princess Anne Rd.

Canoe Trail Highlights
Chester Discovers a new side of Virginia Beach
Sometimes it takes a little open mindedness and a year of hype to drag three fellows to boat through industrial parks, marshes, and ghetto. But when its all said and done these three mates ended up very inspired by their oft neglected home town spirit.
Flora and Fauna
The cell shots don't do it justice, but there were tons of leaning cherry trees in blossom and scattered daffodils strewn on the shore. We saw tons of cranes, wood peckers, purple martins, and a bald eagle. Got in a canoe speed drag race with a small water fairing vermin. One span of the trail ran past an open field with a bull and free running horses. No shit!
Intentional detour of Arigona Village, Section 8, and Trailer Park sites.
We took the long way around through Green Run and ended up adding 3 miles to our intended 4 mile trip, but really got an up close and personal look at this town. A drug running circuit could be managed from the Bay to North Carolina with a john boat and an Arigona palace like this one.
