With two somewhat invalids in a party of four, we skipped out of Montreal early and drove up the St. Lawrence River. We headed to La Malbaie, which is a fantastic place, though there isn’t much there – unless you like looking at a huge expanse of water that says ocean much more than river,ContinueContinue reading “Day 9 – St Lawrence River @ La Malbaie”

Day 8 – Montréal
We started the morning by driving down to old Montréal and walking around until we found a nice place to have crêpes and such for an early lunch.

Day – 7 Soccer Golf What The Heck?
The day started with us getting a nice fancy breakfast in the middle of nowhere Canada. After the delicious breakfast we found out there was there was soccer golf course. The wholes where golf holes except for the fact that the holes were gigantic and that the tees were cones. Everybody had size 5 balls.ContinueContinue reading “Day – 7 Soccer Golf What The Heck?”
Day 6—Quebec
Leo was sick this morning, so it was just me and Arthur that hit The Links at Lang Farm at 7:20 this morning. Short, affordable, incredibly well maintained golf course. So fun that I decided to play the back 9 by myself in the rain! I’m sick but it was totally worth it. Burlington wasContinueContinue reading “Day 6—Quebec”
Day 5 – On to greener pastures… (aka golf)
Another travel day, mostly. After all, we are trying to slowly make it to Canada, so that’s why we left NYC in the morning and –fortified with Bagels (+schmear)– embarked on another 5 hour drive, this time to Northern Vermont. Bill had located a great place to stop over: a culinary resort with a spaContinueContinue reading “Day 5 – On to greener pastures… (aka golf)”

We took the underground train/subway from our Marriott we got there atContinueContinue reading “Day – 3 New York Here We Come”
Day 2—Washington D.C.
Well-rested after a fantastic dinner in the brand new Wharf area of DC near our hotel last night. We woke up with energy to tackle the task of seeing D.C. in a single day. Didn’t expect to spend most of the day at the new Museum of African American History, but we did. Unbelievably well-doneContinueContinue reading “Day 2—Washington D.C.”
DAY 1 – NC to DC
On the road again… Bares family on the road again… It’s that time of year (summer), when we try to take learning about history and geography to its most experiential level, and so we pack up and drive (7 hours yesterday) and then wake up in a place like Manassas, VA. Presumably, 158 years agoContinueContinue reading “DAY 1 – NC to DC”
