That would be a fun tour! I'd probably take that ride.
I now have a mental image of people riding a giant duck!
Interesting background information. Nice street shot (as usual) !
Are they called "ducks" as well? Interesting post!
They had duck tours in Austin when I was there recently. I wanted to give it a try, but we ran out of time.
Ha ha. They have these in Wisconsin Dells (the originals, I think, aside from the war ones, that is)
A great shot with a lovely feel to it. We have one of these in London and I keep meaning to have a go on it...maybe in the next few weeks
;-)
There is one here in Singapore which i have been avoiding for quite some time, maybe this time i will get on it. Nice shot!

Curious vehicle. Great idea for the adventure of people.

Cool shot.
We have one of those here in Seattle too. I need to take a ride on it one of these days! :)
Very interesting story. Great invention the dukw. I hate wars (except Star Wars ;) but it's usual that important inventions or developments be made for military purposes.
