One of the Thousand Islands
From the tour boat on Saint Lawrence River
May 2008
A little explanation on Prashanth's request.
St. Lawrence river connects Lake Ontario and North Atlantic Ocean, and serves as the divider between the US and Canada. The border region between the US and Canada in the northern aprt of New York state is very rural in nature, with a lot of lush green forest on both sides of the border.
There are many tiny islands in the river in this region (where the river meets Lake Ontario). Therefore, the region is called 1000 Islands. During the turn of the 20th century, many millionnaires bought up these islands and built palacial homes on them, one house per island. These houses are still habitable. Some are occupied by their owners and others are rented out to vacationers. We just took a 1 hour boat ride around the islands on a beautiful sunny day in May. These pictures were taken with my cellphone - what a day to forget my camera :(
