Burlington

Burlington, Vermont is a vibrant city located on the eastern shoreline of a Lake Champlain. It is known for its ultra liberal environment and free thinking. The City is surrounded by scenic beauty and lots of recreational activities.  

Burlington has been named one of the top places to live in America and in 2010 it was named one of the “prettiest” towns in America (We both agree 👍).

We docked at the City Marina and couldn’t believe the incredible views from Thistle’s flydeck. Right on Lake Champlain between the Adirondack and Green Mountains...Absolutely breathtaking 🙏!

Welcome 🙂

Burlington has miles and miles of well maintained scenic bike paths.

We rode bikes 🚲 everywhere.

We found a cool 🌳treehouse on the bike path!

And an interesting stone 🗿structure on the Lake.

Church Street is downtowns award winning open air mall.

It is the hub of the Cities’s activity, with historic architecture, 

festivals, street entertainers, unique shopping and excellent dining options.

There is no lack of characters in Burlington ‼️

The view from Thistle reminded us of an Ansel Adams work of art.
