...in one state. Kid Polska gives his homeland the thumbs up :D You don't have to travel overseas to visit Europe. Just come to New York. Some of our towns:

Alexandria Amsterdam Antwerp Athens Belfast Bethlehem Bombay Cairo Cambridge Delhi Denmark Dresden Edinburgh Geneva Genoa Ghent Italy Ithaca Jerusalem Madrid Malta Manchester Mexico Milan Naples New Castle Oxford Palermo Paris Persia Perth Peru Poland Rome Rotterdam Russia Sidney Stockholm Stratford Sweden Vienna Wales Waterloo York

As well as some others I 'm pretty sure I skipped. Hopefully I don't get any bright ideas about taking pictures if front of the town signs of each. ...DOH! Great. Just what I need. Something else to do.

Boldt Castle on Heart Island
Thousand Islands, NY
Http://www.boldtcastle.com

After an excruciatingly hot ride from Long Island to Thousand Islands via the Adirondacks, I finally have one more tick mark on my life's To-Do List. We visited Boldt Castle.

The only way to get to the castle is via boat, so we hopped on the earliest tour available, which was 10am. By that time, it felt like it was already 286 degrees. Even though we'd already checked out, the fellow who owned the motel we stayed at on Thursday night allowed us to stowe our gear in a motel room that was being renovated so that we didn't have to tour the castle in our leathers and gear. That was seriously a major hookup. 

Alster Tower - The 'Playhouse'

The Castle and all of the buildings on the island are in an ongoing state of restoration after being in a state of neglect for so long.

I'm not sure what it was about the power house, but i found it to be the most interesting structure on the grounds. I just found it to be such a beautiful building.

The flowers and grounds are so beautiful~

Hello world here's a song that we're singing
C'mon Get Happy
A whole lotta lovin’ is what we'll be bringing
We'll Make you Happy

I'll tell ya. You just never know what you're going to see out on the road. Kenny and I were snaking thru the Catskills heading up to the Adirondacks when we zipped past the Partridge Family Bus parked outside of what appeared to be a vacant building in Ashland, NY. Its not the original bus, but.. well.. does it really matter? It was cool nonetheless.

Travelin' along there's a song that we're singin'
Come on Get happy
A whole lotta lovin' is what we'll be bringin'
We'll make you happy
We'll make you happy

We had a dream we'd go travellin' together
And spread a little lovin' if we keep moving on
Something always happens whenever we're together
We get a happy Feeling when we're singing a song

-Come on get happy - by Danny Janssen and Wes Farrell
