Kayaking in Blauvelt
We’ve been here before, and this time, we came with Bubbie!
The water was quite a bit lower this time, so we couldn’t paddle in amongst the trees. Even the main channel was a bit difficult to push through, as it was filled with lilypads in places.
We saw an immature Bald Eagle hanging around:
…We also saw Herons, Egrets, and Swans. I kayaked all the way to the southern end of the marsh:
Hearing the swan’s wings cut through the air was neat:
Rafting up on the way back:
On the way back, we saw our bald eagle grab a large fish out of the water, only to be chased by what appeared to be an osprey:
An Egret in the distance:
Working our way back:
Funfuzion fun, but crowded!
We went to Funfuzion in New Roc City during Chol Hamoed. So Crowded!
Ugh.
We did our best to get there early, so the bowling alley was mostly empty:
They had some rides:
Spooky glow golf:
They also had a sukkah on the roof, which was neat. But overall it was too crowded and noisy. Never again, methinks.
We picked up dinner at a kosher Subway. Who knew such a thing existed?!
