... Canada in order to get to Averille.......oops.....we left the passports in the safe for this day trip, so by the time we got turned around, we were way off course and decided to go to plan B, and look for moose somewhere else, like in US.

Back over the pass without incident, and off for an early dinner. Florence is using the Inn's washer and dryer to do some laundry before we head off to Niagara Falls tomorrow.

... and old motel repainted as a La Quinta. I really like the hotels La Quinta builds, and HATE the ones they buy and repaint.

Burlington is a wonderful, lively college town, and it is full of coffee shops, bars, restaurants, and clubs. With its waterfront on Lake Champlain, it is wonderfully scenic. We had dinner in a seafood restaurant overlooking the ferry dock. We ...

The verdant hills of Vermont and the crisp, sunny days that met us there, eased me back into the U.S. after a week steeped in francophone sophistication and grace. A few days in Burlington, with super cool couple, Scott & Mildred and their adorable twins, Stigs and Marcello, allowed us to take it easy and experience downtown ...

After leaving the museum, we headed down the road to the
Vermont Teddy Bear Factory ...

... hotelleja (Hilton, Courtyard by Mariott jne) joissa on kapasiteettiä useiden satojen vieraiden majoitukseen. Kaupunki on myös täynnä kahviloita ja laadukkaita ravintoloita - kävimme syömässä illallista brasilialaisessa ravintolassa, jonka viinilistalla oli yli 200 pelkästään chileläisiä ja argentiinalaisia viinejä.

... had an 8 hour layover, which was great to get out, see the city and have dinner with Jessi. I met Jessi at work and we headed over to Union Square for dinner and coffee. The square is lit up for Christmas, and the tree and lights are just beautiful. I returned to the airport and made my last few phone calls in the US before boarding the flight to Sydney. I ...

... liggen er tussen Plattsburg en Burlington dan misschien niet veel kilometers, maar Lake Champlain zorgt ervoor dat je slechts 2 keuzes hebt om van de ene stad naar de andere te gaan : Ofwel kan je 200 km omrijden rond het meer, ofwel neem je een ferie van 10 minuten. Midden in Lake Champlain ligt er dan nog eens een eiland : Grand Isle. En zelfs op dat eiland hebben ze mensen van Hospitality Club. Ik had deze persoon dan wel gevonden op ...
