VT - Burlington

Burlington is a city in northwestern Vermont, on the eastern shore of Lake Champlain, south of the Canadian border.

The lake was named after the French explorer Samuel de Champlain, who encountered it in July, 1609. Today the lake is the border between the states of New York and Vermont.

French inheritance here (and generally in Vermont) is palpable in many places with information boards both in English and French as well as products in shops include the French description too.

According to our guide book Burlington is a 'must-see' when in Vermont. However, we weren't too impressed with the city.
Maybe the beauty can't be found in a rainy Sunday with the city in Pride fever 🤷

But there are still a couple of titbits to note ...
👆In 1978, the ice cream enterprise Ben & Jerry's was founded in Burlington in a renovated gas station.
👆 Burlington is home to 'Zero Gravity' brewery, the producer of the 'Little Wolf' beer I like 😬Leer más
