What a terrific opportunity - to have a ...Hi Rita,<br /><br />What a terrific opportunity - to have a private sloop and personal access to all of the captain's knowledge of the lake and New England history! I'm glad you came back minus the dunking. Those clouds look a bit ominous (but, sounds like they stayed true to the fast-moving storms in New England; stormy one minute, sunny the next). <br /><br />You really found some great options during your time in Vermont. Wish I could have been in NH this summer and driven over to meet you!Vickie Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04935525489196514927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4975306347330050350.post-60411249207289742702013-08-15T16:09:56.645-07:002013-08-15T16:09:56.645-07:00It was very nice having a private tour on the day ...It was very nice having a private tour on the day I chose to take this cruise. I think the threatening weather may have had something to do with that. Captain Mike will arrange for private party excursions, in addition to his daily cruises. I don't know what the charge is or whether or not he specifies a minimum number of passengers for those tours.<br /><br />I envy you and Cheri being so close to Burlington and being able to cycle the Island Line Trail. It's certainly a beautiful locale.<br /><br />The ferry ride sounds like fun, and I'm sure that Captain Mike would be happy to take you out on the lake too!<br /><br />Thanks for your comments John, and enjoy your next trip to Burlington!One Day in Americahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06908834658716123640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4975306347330050350.post-86832088137942360472013-08-15T13:31:35.320-07:002013-08-15T13:31:35.320-07:00Wow! Your own private tour aboard the Friend Ship...Wow! Your own private tour aboard the Friend Ship! What a treat!<br /><br />Lake Champlain and the City of Burlington, VT are such a winning combination. <br /><br />Burlington is less than a 2-hour drive from our home in Bethlehem, NH. Cheri and I drive over there a couple of times each year to bicycle along the Island Line Trail. <br /><br />When travelling between VT and NY to visit the Adirondacks, we sometime take a ferry across Lake Champlain, and so we have some frame of reference as to the topic of your Blog. I must say that your report has piqued our interest in taking a guided tour of the lake via the Friend Ship, rather than merely crossing the lake by ferry.<br /><br />John<br />1HappyHikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02242409292439585691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4975306347330050350.post-5440667698128288052013-08-13T18:52:39.806-07:002013-08-13T18:52:39.806-07:00Your blog introduces me to the wonders of India, S...Your blog introduces me to the wonders of India, Soumyendu.<br /><br />Likewise, I'm pleased to be able to transport you—and other readers—to places all over North America. <br /><br />Thanks so much for your kind words of encouragement.
