Driving from Boston to Boston, the long way

It’s that time of year again.  We are heading out on another great adventure.  This time, we wanted to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary in Montreal.  Since there are no non-stop flights from Seattle to Montreal, and we didn’t want to be bothered with a 2 hour layover, we are flying to Boston and driving 2000 miles, zig-zagging around New England and New France, spending some time in Montreal along the way. We will hit at least 4 states (maybe even 6 depending on how we feel) and 2 provinces.  We know we are early for Fall color, but we will also miss the Fall crowds and prices.

Below is a rough map of our expected travels.  We will drive west from Boston and up into Vermont.  We will zig-zag around Vermont and New Hampshire before heading to Montreal and Quebec City.  We’ll drive around Maine into New Brunswick, then along the Atlantic coast through Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts.  If we feel up for more, we will dip our toes into Rhode Island and Connecticut, before heading back to Boston.

Posts to this blog as we roll along will be dependent on time and mood.

Last minute upgrade

Woo-hoo! We’ve been upgraded to Club World seats for the flight home. This means seats that lay flat into beds. This also means access to the British Airways lounge which has free food and drinks. We ate first not knowing this, but after looking at the food spread, it’s nothing special.

Final post from London

It’s been a great trip but we fly back home tomorrow. This will probably be the last post. You’ll have to check the website in a week or two to see the full web pages with more pictures. It was great spending time with Carrie in London. Italy had a bunch of interesting things to see, but I leave you with an image of a double decker bus driving into the sunset, sort of.
