29.7EVER::LALIBERTEPSG/IAE - OGOWed May 14 1997 13:417
    We are planning last week in June to do
    BOSTON/FORT TICONDEROGA/LAKE GEORGE/SARATOGA/RHINEBECK/WEST POINT/BOS
    
    with 9 year old son.  Would like any advice on what to do, what not
    to miss, what to avoid in that area. Lodging/meal experience helpful.
    
    Thanks.
29.8TURRIS::coaster.zko.dec.com::ParmlindWed May 14 1997 14:3010
  On my list of what not to miss - The Great Escape in Lake George.
They have an AWESOME roller coaster called the Comet.  Be aware
though it closes early - 6 PM I think.
  How are you planning on getting from Boston to Ticonderoga?
We took a very short ferry ride from Ticonderoga to Vermont
and then on through NH to MA.  This took longer than the
Mass turnpike to NY thruway but was more scenic.

29.9white water rafting at lake georgeAKOFAT::VISCONTIThu May 15 1997 08:266
    When I children were around your's age, we took them white water
    rafting, the river really is very mild, no really bad sections but
    enough to give you some excitement.
    
    Regards,

29.10Ausauble Chasm & Shelburne Museum and FarmSMURF::DOLANFri May 16 1997 13:269
    Go to Ausauble (sp) Chasm - on the NY side, I believe it's just No off
    Fort Ti. It's great and a 9yr will love the opportunity to run and
    climb
    the rocks. There's also a short boat ride further into the chasm. We've
    done that trip several times and have enjoyed it each time. 
    You can also continue north then come across Lake Champ. to Burlington
    VT by bridge or ferry. On the Burlington side there's lots to do,
    including the Shelburne Museus and Shelburne Farm...
    
29.11TROOA::BUTKOVICHtake from me, my laceFri May 16 1997 17:505
    You could stop and see the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge on the
    way to Lake George.   And if you head north to Lake Placid you can tour
    the Olympic facilities.  Last time I was there we saw some of the
    athletes including the ski jumpers and figure skaters.  (this was
    mid-summer)

And then of course there is Rhinebeck Aerodrome,
but then that is why Rhinebeck is on the list, right?
