Today we decided to make our way up to Waterford, a distance of 59 miles, instead of anchoring up the river as we had originally planned. We did this because the weather report for tomorrow is for heavy rain. The Rondout area of Kingston where we stayed at the Kingston City Marina is very quaint, and last night we had a lovely dinner at the Mariners' Harbor restaurant only a few steps away from our boat along the waterfront. Today despite a late start, we quickly made our way north, again passing a variety of scenery, which changed dramatically from rural to industrial at Albany. We made our way to Troy Lock, and as we were the only boat in the lock at 5 p.m., we made a very smooth lift. We were tied up to the floating dock at the Visitors' Center in Waterford at 5:30 p.m. Several other boats that are also making the Great Loop are tied up here.
