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.

We really enjoyed our stay at 1000 Islands Campground . It’s basically central to both Alexandria Bay and Clayton, so being right in the middle allowed us to plan activities along the river without having to worry about being gone too long from the dogs. It also has a market and ice cream shop right at the front of the park - you know we had to go try that!!
