North Pole RV Park- Willmington, NY

This Morning we left Essex Junction heading south from Burlington on VT-7. A very scenic drive as we passed dairy farms with the Green Mountains of Vermont on our left and the Adirondack mountains of New york to our right. At Charlotte we turned west toward Lake Champlain in about 5 miles we were at the ferry. After measuring the RV and paying the $42.50 fee we waited for the ferry to arrive. We loaded on the ferry but were unable to
exit the motor home as we were so close to the wall that we couldn't open the door. We got someone to take the picture of us on the ferry and we were able to take many pictures from where we sat in the motor home. About 1/2 hr later we arrived at the ferry landing in Essex, NY. We headed north on NY 22 driving in light rain through the winding rolling mountainous area. We also saw many rock fences on this part of the drive. It was then north on I-87 for about 4 miles were we turned west on NY 9N traveling further into the Adirondack Mtns. of New York. Nearing Wellington we saw the Whiteface mountain where the skiing events of the winter Olympics were held. We are parked neat the base of the mountain but can't see it for the trees. In total we had about a 75 mile drive today.
