The Takeaway Tracks

An interesting feature of the downtown Bradenton riverwalk is the railroad track. The track section at the back of the picture stays up so that boats and ships can travel on the Manatee River. 

But, then you hear the train whistle. The barriers put a stop to your walk, and the train track section lowers itself to allow the train to cross the river. Pretty cool to watch.

Speaking of "boats", the riverwalk passes under 2 separate bridges. One of the passes leads to a marina where there are many boats...many BIG boats...yachts.

There is a 2-sided sign that has several (maybe 24) yachts that are for sale. Guess how much the most expensive yacht is for sale for?

Most people I ask guess between 3 and 4 million, but the answer is incredibly 25 million dollars. 25 MILLION DOLLARS!
