We went on an impromptu road trip last saturday, to Lake Placid, NY. It was pretty cool! The ginormous wait at the border was not. (I pat myself on the back, for insisting that we went out there on the first day of Labor Day weekend, even if my super nice boyfriend was feeling down with a cold. I'm just awesome like that.) We had a.... drum roll... 2h30 delay at the boarder, and it kind of changed the whole beat of the day. But the weather was just so nice, it was hard to be mad. (Lucky for me.)
Lake Placid is kind of neat. Having had more time, we would have looked into the Olympics' stuff. But we mostly just strolled, ate, paddled a bit on the lake, had ice cream and went home. The drive there is seriously breath-taking. It was, by far, the highlight of the trip and my favorite part. That gorgeous almost-full moon was just so stunning in the mountains... I was not able to get a good picture, and decided to actually just stare at it.
Now I'll return to feeling miserable about that nasty cold. It's my turn.
