Springfield, IL to New York

[davidkerryedwards]

We'll be in NYC with the Bird in late June or July. Last year we
camped quite a long way out in Florida, NY. I think it was called
Black Bear Campground or something like that. The campground bills
itself as the closest camping to NYC but it was quite run down. Their
pictures on the web show a nice pool which our daughter would have
loved. But the pool wasn't open and looked as though it hadn't been
maintained in years. We took the commuter train into the city.
This year we plan to stay at Liberty Harbor Marina in Jersey City,
just across from Manhattan. It's a marina/RV park within walking
distance of a PATH station.
I-90 is pretty flat, follows the Mohawk and Hudson River's but it's a
toll road. Rt 17 across southern NY is a lot more hilly. Rt 20
across upstate NY is pretty and is often close to historically
interesting Eric Canal towns, but it's not as fast as I-90. We're
heading to Washington DC before NYC so we'll be driving a more
southern route.
