Holiday Inn Rochester-Airport,Ny

... is a recurring theme in Corfu – actually there are three or four places open here so it is one of the more lively holiday towns. We found the bakery recommended by Anthea to grab some treats for lunch.

In what was left of the day we decided to explore the South of the Island so we jumped in the car and just followed out noses. We found the village of Lefkimmi and thought that it looked lovely, but as we got further south we kept coming across deserted holiday ...

... do with the camera's we have. I gave Josh a more intimate tour of RIT, showing him the college of Information Technology where I took some of my classes, and also the NTID building where I took some other courses as well. It was a difference scene as this time on this tour, there was students to show the hustle and bustle of campus life. The dorms also came to life during the week as many students likes to lay low, or go out for the ...

... below. Here are some shots of some of the crew. We had poor lightings, and my ****** Sony Cybershot from the 90's with delayed reaction, and choppy video. It's still better than nothing. We're hoping for a better digital video camera for more shots down the road for sponsorships. Josh truly enjoyed his workout, working on his manual's, and line of tricks.

... help us in many ways.....directions, weather reports, places to stay, places to rest, free ice, toilets and the pros and cons of different routes. There really is something magical about travelling by bicycle...people are less afraid to approach you and lend a helping hand.

I didn't actually see much of Rochester – the bus station, the hotel and the arena was pretty much it but it was well worth the visit!!

A great day we started with a tour of the greatest bicycle museum I have ever seen. Carl the owner of the collection gave us a tour and most of the bikes were American made except for some very rare ones that he had imported. He had quite the collection of "ordinaries" or high wheelers. It was evident that many of conveniences that we ...

Just south of Rochester is one of the Finger Lakes called Conesus Lake. It's not too big, but every year they have a 4th of July celebration on the 3rd called the Ring of Fire. Met up with several friends to enjoy the fireworks and each other's company. I was playing with the cameras high-speed burst setting so if you click through the fireworks pictures fast enough, its like watching one of the old ...

... soon after; my father was raised in Boston and had lots of family there. About once a year we visited and stayed in Winthrop at my Nana's home. As we got older we gradually shifted to staying with my great-Nana in Gloucester. It is the oldest seaport in the continental United States, popular for lobster fishing and attractive for the nation's billionaires. I am sure some pictures exist somewhere, but they ...

... to end up sleeping in a park somewhere, clutching our backpacks so we don't get robbed. What a sight that would be. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Jason has his Eurail and Britrail passes, I purchased mine last week and received them two days later, as of this week Jason had still not purchased his...he asked me to shoot him an email with directions on ...
