Walking Along the River

I've been walking with a friend a fews times a week lately. There is a red brick walkway along the river. We've been tracking some families of ducks. One day the ferry left just as we came by and we heard the horn. The Spirit of Philadelphia cruises along regularly. Some days it is nice just to sit on a bench and listen the waves and the gulls. Walk past the marina and you can hear the ropes and moorings creak. We're by no means the only ones and often pass other walkers, singly or in groups, along with the schoolchildren by the aquarium. Definitely a nice break in the middle of the day.
