Make New Friends

Day 22
Today we spent the day in Albany, New York with our new friends from Capitaland Chorus!! Linda opened her home to us for 2 nights and made us feel so loved and welcome in our new surroundings. Linda and her husband Tip have a beautiful home outside of Albany. This morning, Dodie came over to eat breakfast with us. We had this amazing Broccoli cheddar quiche dish, bacon, english muffins and orange juice. It was so amazing to have a home cooked meal and great conversation. 

We had such a great and relaxing morning. We left for the capitol around 11. Linda and Dodie took us around Albany. It was so nice not to have GPS screaming at us and we were driven around. What a great break from driving. 

We made it to Albany!! This capitol city has Dutch origins. Dodie was a great tour guide. It was so nice to have a real photo taken! 
Dodie and Linda with us! I love these ladies!! 
 Fire Fighter memorial. 
Number 42 baby!! 

A beautiful day in Albany! 
After walking around we went to the New York Museum. I found Sesame Street! 
Hudson River! 
We went on a solar powered boat. 
These are the friendly people who rode the boat with us today. These ladies are from Capitulant Chorus and are amazing ladies! Celeste was driving the boat. :) 

This boat was really cool and totally solar powered. 
After the boat ride on the Hudson River we ate a wonderful lunch/dinner and then headed back to Linda's house for a dessert party. It felt like Thanksgiving with all the laughter and good company and food. Even though we all just met yesterday and today it felt like we have known them forever! 
Thank you for an amazing time in Albany! So glad to take these memories back home to Texas! You all are welcome anytime!!

Thanks for following along.
