| Trip to Bear Mountain State Park |
| These are photos of some of my
favorite places on one of my favorite rides. Cross the
Hudson on the
George Washington Bridge, go up the Palisades Parkway to the State Line
Lookout (on the border between New Jersey and New York). Admire
the
view and have a cup of cofee. Continue to exit 10 - visit the
Russian
Cemetary at Novo Divyeyevo to say hello to my friends Alex and Yuri who
are buried there. Return to the Palisaides Parkway until Bear
Mountain State Park - take the 7 Lakes Drive through the park, where
the speed limit is regretably 30mph, watch the fall fishermen, wave to
a couple of late-season motorcyclists, say "hi" to the
geese. Back to
Manhattan, see sunset. Good day. |
View from the Palisades of New
Jersey, looking back towards Manhattan (1,2) and Hell Gate (3)
