If I hadn't seen the picture and someone told me about this guy, I'd never have believed it. This poor fellow was left on the Tilt-A-Whirl a bit too long as a baby.

Please be careful, Rosie!!!

I have been to both. I haven't been to the Log Jam in a few years but one of my friends just went a few weeks ago and said it is just as good as always. Wonderful steaks and prime rib and a great salad bar. The Algonquin is a very nice restaurant as well, lovely views of the Lake.

I didn't give you any restaurant picks in the village yet because I haven't eaten in any of the restaurants there in many years - other than a slice of pizza or other fast food places. I will ask around though and see if I can come with some good ones for you.

There is the Upper Hudson River Train - but it is in North Creek which I think is a 30 minute drive.

Here is the website to the cruise line in the village. The Minne-Ha-Ha is an hour cruise right from the village - paddle wheel boat - it's a nice scenic ride. http://www.lakegeorgesteamboat.com

Also, right in the village is the Fort William Henry museum - they have costumed guided tours. http://www.fwhmuseum.com/visitors.html

I'm still investigating restaurants!

Whadda you guys thonk!!!

Hi Rosie, that sounds great! My favorite time to go to Disney is early October with all the decorations for fall and the Food and Wine Festival!
Your trip as an escort sounds like a good time.

Thank you sooo much Tracie

One of the people going on the trip's families asked if it would be possible to do a train ride !! So I had found the Hudson Train Ride but hadn;t found details of times and dates !!I also like the Fort tour !! I know a lot of time will be at the Elvis Festival but I saw from previous Trip notes that they did do other stuff too!!I read in those notes about a neat restaurant where the staff dance with the customers !! Now that sounds like a lot of FUN and something ALL would enjoy !!! Carol WILL enjoy it All this input from you is just great !! I was in Lakre George years ago when touring the New England States we came back that way !! Again Thank you!!!

Working with this population is both a priviledge and a JOY!!! I am the Lucky One !!

This TR seems to have taken a Jordan side Track with the LakeGeorge vacation I will try to get back on track, but with the new laptop I had to start from scratch and haven't got all my links together yet !!! My story anywho

 

[englishrose47]

Monday February 8th

I slept in a little till around 9am !! Then as I got up I stood on yet more beads I crawled around on the floor till I thought I had found them all !!! Determined to rethread them at some point in my crazy life

I headed to the Bus Stop and met Cherie and DJ !! We headed to Epcot and were there before 11am. First order of business was FP for Soarin for later on !!

By now it was 11am and we strolled to the World !! We had both or should I say THRICE decided to try Tangerine Cafe !!!

This is my Schwarmie platter !! It was NOT good the meatss were cold and dry !! Now i loved the hummus and the olivesalad and can't remember the name of the other one ..it is NOT couscous I know that much it too was good !! If I go again I will get the vegetarian plate as all of that was fine !! The Baklava for dessert was okay!!! Cherie and DJ were equally dissapointed with their choices but I will leave that to Winkers to post on prolly by Christmas
Now as I have not yet figured out this Tab/ 2 windows yet bear with me for single pix reviews !!!

 

[englishrose47]

[TrayRene]

Hi Rosie! I'm here!

Too bad you guys didn't enjoy your meals. Good to know the hummus and salads were tasty though.
