Day 66 5. July 2000, Niagara Falls to Binghamton Leaving
Canada and entering the United States again. We mostly drive through the
state of New York, but also through the state of Pennsylvania. The America
here is very different from that of the Midwest, but many things are of
course common to the whole of the U.S. The main difference is probably
in the architecture of the houses and design in general. The East Coast
is the starting point of the colonization of modern America, so it not
surprising to find more elements of 18th-century and older history here,
whereas in the west it was mainly 19th-century. Streets have Dutch or
French names, villages and towns can claim to have a certain age, New
York is the Empire State.
Overall 1 hour 47 minutes penalty The official results can be looked up on this website
