Vermont Travel

I am back after a 4 day vacation in Vermont. We stayed at South Burlington VT. It was a fantastic trip. The green mountains state is very beautiful with its lakes, mountains and its natural beauty.

Day 1:

We started out early from New Jersey. It was a 6 hour drive and we didn’t want to get caught in the traffic.

It was a scenic drive on Route 87, driving north to Upstate New York. After few hours drive, our GPS took us to Dock Street in NY and then we came to a complete stop in front of a waterfront.

The GPS asked us to “Take the Ferry” ! We were surprised and we parked the car in front of the Old Dock Yard. The ferry would take us across the river from the state of NY to Vermont! It was a 30 minute ferry. It was so exciting! We parked the car inside the ferry boat and enjoyed the ride to South Burlington VT.

Check out the Google map and the Old Dock where we took the Charlotte- Essex Ferry. In the map, the thin dotted line in the lake separates NY and VT.
