A drive to Burlington Vermont to start our day, brunch at Henry's Diner.

A market of sorts takes place each Saturday, with a variety of ethnic goods.

I lost Ian then found him again.

The town has a lovely waterfront and "weeble" style lighthouse.

Every waterfront should have swinging seats, whilst most folks admired the view, we tried to make ours turn over !

Lost River caves and gorge New Hampshire.

At the ticket office the lady proudly told us that this adventure contains over 1000 steps.
I think my face tells you, thats not how this hike was sold to me...

The narrow caves mean, most children have to crawl through the gaps and get dirty knees.

Ian was forgiven when we came across the waterfalls.

Various stopping points, gave us lovely views of the river and falls.

Ian went into some of the caves, while I admired the rushing water.

Another 230+ plus steps take you to the Valley Overlook, I let my favourite volunteer do that one.

Here we are at The Lodge At Jackson Village, disaster, we misread the ammenities list..There is no guest laundry!
Inside out pants here we come.

Dinner at El Reparo, a newly opened Mexican Restaurant nearby.

Fortunately they served big jugs of Marguerita, so my laundry blunder has lost its sting.

Ians steak fajitas with some brown stuff and rice was disappointing, but was removed from the final bill, my chicken one was fine and enough to feed us both.

Goodnight dear readers, as ever thanks to Gareth for his well though out comments, and our new contributors, Keeps us going! xx
