We got our beer and ordered our meal. Then we waited and waited and waited. After a while I found the waitress and asked her where are order was. “Oh” said she, “there was a problem”.

“Oh” said I, “How much longer will it take to sort this problem (ie heat wings and a burger)? We have a plane to catch”. She said she would chase it up. After seeing several people arrive, sit, eat and leave, I thought I’d ask again, but this time I found the manager who said he would find out. I said that was good, but could he please let us know as we had come to the airport with the express hope that we would catch our plane.

Eventually the waitress came and told us that they had mislaid the order in the kitchen (funnily they hadn’t ‘mislaid’ the bill). I said that if the food did not come in 5 minutes then we would leave and not pay for the beer. Sure enough the food arrived, we asked for the bill and wolfed down our grub. The bill was for the full amount so I said to the waitress that we would not be paying all of it . She returned the bill with 25% knocked off and we very nearly missed our plane.

Shame really because this was our last meal in the States and up until then we’d had great service.

This is a first: the flog has a direct feedback mechanism! The Blackmores had read about our foodie exploits so far, and decided that what we needed was some light fish and fresh veggies and salad. Oh, they were so right. Yum. Salmon, new spuds, salad and (for me, anyway) the star of the show: broccoli salad with a sweet red vinegar dressing with raisins and sunflower seeds.

At this point I should mention the appalling driving skills of our American friends. If they are not tailgating you, they undertake, over take, cut you up and cross over four lanes at the last minute to get off at an exit. Many times this is while they are yapping away with their mobile phone clamped to their ear and on one occasion doing the above whilst opening a map across the steering wheel. It’s amazing that there is no consistency in the law regarding seat belts and the wearing of (it probably impinges on an American’s right to die in a car accident - see 69th amendment). I should also say that we Brits are probably no better, it just seems more scary when you’re driving on the ‘wrong side of the road’!

Niagara Falls was beautiful. The day was really sunny (in fact it was boiling hot - 29C) so we saw countless rainbows. Jon thought it was amazing particularly the gorgeous colour of the water - a deep bluey green. I have been to Niagara before and couldn’t believe how much it had changed . Last time it seemed more run down and tacky. Now it’s more modern, with more hotels and a casino. The horseshoe falls belong to the Canadians and are definitely the best. In fact going over the Rainbow Bridge to Canada from America is well worth the $3 toll and the grilling from a stern looking Canadian customs chap, because they definitely have the best view. They also have some fabulous tacky gift shops, but sadly no Origins. Ed - we have a very special gift for you from Niagara…

The drive from Niagara to Syracuse was uneventful. Bugger all to look at on the way so we tried to spot as many different state licence plates, which was better than I-spy.

What did make us laugh was the menu which offered fish and chips - look at what they serve it with…..!

The only quibble with this place is the size of the portions is ridiculous: look how much we left….

The whole cemetery is very well organised and looks very like the American cemetery in Madingley, but much bigger. We were impressed with one gravestone which stated that Harold Harriman had served in WWII, Korea and Vietnam. He died in 2005 almost certainly with a chest full of medals. With the memorials of yesterday and today, it really made us wonder about the futility of war - what’s the bloody point!

As we drove away from Arlington, we drove parallel to the Spout Run. This is a small stream in Arlington County, Virginia, which flows on a northeastern course paralleling the Spout Run Parkway through a gorge and empties into the Potomac River opposite the Three Sisters. With the exception of the adjacent parkway, Spout Run is surrounded predominantly by forests. And it is beautiful, but we couldn’t stop because the traffic was going so fast we would never have got out of the turn-out (in other words a lay-by).

After briefly driving through Virginia, we then drove through a big portion of Pennsylvannia and oh what beautiful countryside. Rolling hills interspersed with hedges and clapboard house (usually white) built in the Dutch style are dotted across the landscape. We could live here as well. We didn’t really stop other than for rest breaks, but we wished we’d had time to. In fact we could do with another month, or more here. We got to Buffalo and were dead chuffed as we had a coupon for a deal for the Holiday Inn clipped a room saver magazine. When I picked it up I said that we probably wouldn’t find the hotel as our GPS is not always clear and there are a lot of roadworks which mess it up. We turned off the interstate and blow me there was the Holiday Inn. It was crap, but it was somewhere to have a shower and sleep. And we got it for a cheaper price so we didn’t care.

Favourite bumper sticker: Don’t steal: This Government doesn’t like competition.

Brilliant!

PS: this was my photo of the reflecting pool from yesterday…

We decided to make this our main meal so ordered a main course of chicken quesadillas and a shrimp and crab fondue. As we both tend to like the same thing we often order dishes to share, which can get messy. My fave was the fondue! We also had a beer as it was so hot outside (at least 79F).
