4TH OF JULY
ADIRONDACK VACATION
July 3, 2004 - July 5, 2004
Meet Unni & Han
Dan & I learned that Unni and Han are from New York and New Jersey area.
Unni & Han decided to take in Fourth of July in the Adirondack Mountains.  They arrived July 3, 2004 to the Adirondacks.

Upon their arrival to the Adirondacks, we informed them that the other groups had decided on a guided hike to Kane Mountain firetower to watch the fireworks.  Unni & Han were also interested in attending the celebration.

Unni & Han spent the most time taking in the views from the firetower. They enjoyed the moonlight, scenic views, and fireworks from three different locations. After the fireworks everyone decided on a campfire and some chit-chat. A great couple that we loved having.

West Lake Outlet provides access into West Lake. From West lake you are able to access Canada Lake, Lily Lake, and Green Lake.     Both Han & Unni seemed to have an enjoyable time during their day of paddling.
Off to the wild blue yonder.  Han & Unni paddle through West Lake Outlet in order to reach West Lake, Canada Lake, and Lily Lake.  Both arrived Back To Basics safety.

What an amazing way to watch fireworks....on top of the highest tower, among lakes, clouds, and stars!  Thank you for your hospitality and for being such wonderful and kind people.  Thank Popcorn for all the warm hugs and kisses!!

P.S.  The few days here is just enough to wet our appetite.  We'll be back for more...
