Montreal Trip - Day 5
I was thinking about taking the kids to Fort Ticonderoga this morning, but it became clear that our visit with Clarence and Wilma had used up some of the time we'd need for that excursion. So, still keeping our itinerary a secret, I worked our way up to Shelburne, VT. Nicky and I had been here before, but without the kids. I figured they would enjoy a visit to the Vermont Teddy Bear Factory - and I was right. We also checked out a Morgan Horse Museum in Shelburne. I found a hotel (Shelburne Days Inn) and we explored the Burlington and Shelburne Farm area of Lake Champlain. We had so much fun that I figured the kids would like another day in the area. So, after returning to our hotel, I added a night to our reservation. We ate dinner at Friendly's (always nice) and made plans for another day in the area.
