Taking the Train

I couldn't imagine having to commute from the
outlying cities into New York  every day, but obviously, many people do just that.  Our tour bus driver said today that 5 million people come into NY during the week, every day.  5 million people!!
The only positive thing is that the trip North of NY follows along the Hudson River Valley and it is absolutely gorgeous!  The leaves are so beautiful right now!  West Point is located along this river and was really cool to see!

The kids have now experienced trains, NY city busses, the subway, and busy city streets!  We have done a lot of walking here as things are 
very spread out.

We have been pleasantly surprised at how clean
everything has been, and how safe we have felt.  
Needless to say, the five foot rule has been in 
effect, and Sean must be in the 5 foot perimeter
from us at all times.  Rianna is usually 
attached to one of us!

There is a dog walking service at our campground
so the dogs are happy too, as they get to go out
a couple times during the day while we are gone.  That has allowed us to put in longer days and see as much as we can.

We have pretty tired feet, but a great experience!
