Army Duck Tour

The Army Duck is an amphibious vehicle that was used in the 1940s. These vehicles were assembled by women during the war. The tour was through some rugged terrain and through a small lake. We saw spiders and butterflies and a cassowary. The cassowary description is that of an ancient bird, from the dinosaur age. It looks like it should be extinct.
