No trip to Vermont is complete without a visit to a local maple farm. Upon advice of several folks as to where to get the best Maple Creemee , we ventured to Morse Farm Maple Sugarworks (map ).

We drove down to Burlington for an afternoon to check out the largest city in Vermont (map ). We were a bit underwhelmed by the city itself, but there is definitely a great public art scene. We walked about 1.5 miles to see and take photos of several of the murals in the city. We also drove to the south side to see the “world’s tallest filing cabinet ”.

The route leaving the 1000 Islands is taking us as close as we’ll get to Canada this year! We were maybe 50 yards from the border.
