Back to New York State

After 12,000km we're back in New York State (the North-Eastern corner so still a way to go). It is hard to believe how far we've come in 6 weeks.

From Chicago, we headed east through Ohio and Pennsylvania - repeat visits to both states but this time along Lakes Michigan and Erie (see pic). We took a very scenic route through small lakeside towns (many closed for the winter) and vineyards (they make wine in Pennsylvania and New York too).

It's still cold here - we've seen snow again. I thought spring would have arrived by now.

We're staying in Niagara Falls ready to walk to Canada tomorrow to see the Falls. Quick visit to the American side this evening. It was so cold we could see huge sheets of frozen ice. Peanut Butter and Muddy Sneaker ice-cream at Parkside Candies (a Buffalo institution) did not help!
