River tour along the St Lawrence, many options available

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boldt_Castle

Flickr Album A relaxing river cruise along the St Lawrence river, which flows across the US/Canada border takes you to the famous Boldt Castle (NY) of the Thousand Islands. Did this as part of a small trip I had with my mom (as with the last few days and a woodstock post coming up). You can also go on to the island as part of some tours, but we didn’t.

The powerhouse for Boldt Castle, which looks like a castle in its own right.

The side of Boldt Castle, with the dove-cote (middle) and a portion of the powerhouse on the right.

One of the five bridge sections (the largest I believe) that span over the St Lawrence River from Canada (right of frame) to the US (left of frame).

Bonus picture of the cutest little house on the river that is so excited to see you!

    If you walk across that bridge and keep going until you head into Canada, they will let you in with your passport. Hang out, go swimming, find a nice restaurant a few miles down on the right. Then when you walk back border control will hold your passport and not let you walk back into the country as it is “illegal” to walk along the side of a highway. They will refuse to give you a cab number, and your phone isn’t a smart phone because they didn’t exist yet…
