We started out the day to beautiful weather as we finished the last oatmeal. We settled at a mold pace, as the day went on we were all thinking to Ben and Jerry’s ice cream and what we were going to get. Our counselor said we were going to get one of everything. I thought […]
Today we were up very early so that we would be able to make our ferry across Lake George. However, the ferry ride was 2 hours later than we thought, so we played a cutthroat game of mini golf. Once on the boat, we spent a few hours learning about the deep history of Lake […]
A fitting farewell for the NYM Trekkers today. The hostel was kind enough to store our bags for the day which gave us time for some more thrift shopping! We also explored more of downtown Montreal. We had a lovely lunch of Chinese noodles downtown, and we also spent several hours packing bikes for the […]
Today started off slowly; everyone woke up slightly late, still recovering from our 56 mile day yesterday. Eventually, however, we packed up and began our journey. Delayed by a flat tire in the morning we stopped at a Hannaford for lunch, picking up some of our favorite foods such as chips and bagels. Following the […]
Today we woke up in style in our nice cozy Holiday Inn Express hotel room. We all woke up at 7 am and strolled to the all you can eat breakfast where we ate like kings drinking and eating everything from chocolate milk to coffee to bagels to oats. We left the hotel at 8 […]
Today was one of the best yet for the NYM trekkers! After a quick breakfast at the hostel (and a shower as well) we set off to the Old City to see the port and some of the stores that lined thecobbled streets, with a stop at Notre Dame Basilica. We then marched over to […]
Today was a very chill day. We got up at 8:00 am and left the campground at 8:30 because it started raining. It was pretty nice because the other 3 days were very hot. Finally, we arrived at Albany and it stopped raining. We visited the Corning Observation Tower and toured the State Capitol Building. […]
After yesterdays Vermonster, we all slept like logs. Our leaders gave us an extra half hour of sleep, and after a quick breakfast, and a slight mishap with a missing frying pan, we were on the road! We stopped at a Hannafords to pick up food for the day. I love Hannafords because they put […]
Today began surprisingly early, considering we had access to a variety of the luxury items of the modern world, including a shower and prepared breakfast. Nonetheless, our pace was slower as we ventured further along our route. Bits of glass along the road brought upon us the misfortune of two flat tires which added several […]
We woke up to patriotic music playing from Kyle’s phone. After we woke up, we had a nice breakfast of bars and we were off to Burlington, Vermont. Thankfully, the temperature was a lot cooler than the days before. We stopped at a couple of gas stations to refill on water and get some on […]
