New England - The Litchfield and Berkshire Hills

International Travels Track
Off the beaten path is often the best. I loved your story about riding the Yale bus. Very smart. There are some great roller coasters in Ohio and California. I'll give you details when you head that way. I love the photo at the Sheffield post office. I'm glad you made it. You explored some places we haven't been to.

Always Impressive!
Alex, I never tire of reading your travel blogs, and I always find them impressive -- so well written, so easy and fun to read. AND, it's impressive to learn how much you've seen and absorbed on your travels. Though the places you've visited are not exactly in "my own backyard", I have never visited Connecticut or Massachusetts for any length of time. Having only been to Boston and a few other places in that state, there's still so much to see so I enjoyed the virtual tour with you. Same with seeing Hartford, etc, through your eyes. (Taking the free Yale bus -- inspired!) Can't wait to read you following entries!

I guess I could enjoy that museum
I have read two or three of his books and I like his story telling. I guess I could enjoy that museum. /Ake

Car
So pleased to see you using a car; I mean I know its not good for the environment, but you certainly do your bit with using public transport and miles of walking. How interesting to see another Sheffield albeit a much different one to back home. Also cool to see Mark Twain's house and the museum opportunities although a shame the Dr Seuss museum was closed.
