I see you are closing in on Lake Ontario. You had just passed under
I-81 when I looked. I never really looked at the route you have to
take to get from Albany to the lake but it is a very winding path.
For some reason, I always thought they just dug a canal from Albany to
Oswego or something. I see now they take advantage of a lot of natural
waterways.

This has been way cool watching Wayne's travels. I enjoy the technology that allows this..,


What is it you are watching, aside from dots on a map?

I suppose if you do not have the intellectual curiosity to actually
find out things about the route that you did not know, it is boring.
I know several things about the Atlantic ICW and the Erie canal that I
did not know before.


Oh, I thought there were videos or snapshots attached, and that I just
didn't see any because I was using a Mac, and I was just seeing dots....I
guess I got spoiled by my Apple "friend" app, which gives me an aerial
map of where my friends are and also shows movement on the map.


There is a google earth picture there if you click on it but you could
also do a little research on your own to answer any questions you
have.



My question really was whether my Mac wasn't passing through videos and
such. It was just a passing thought, as I am not particularly interested
in The Voyages of Wayne.


Of course not... after all, it's real boating.
