Day 1 - Troy, NY - Saugerties, NY (click here video)
Mr. Frei rowed a total of 50.5 miles today aided by current and wind, in 10 and a half hours. Some sights that he saw were a dead pig, 3 bald eagles, and lots of jumping fish.
His friend Peter met him at noon and stole half his lunch! However, he made up for it by providing a ride to a gourmet restaurant called Miss Lucy's Kitchen (Zagat rated), and half of a tent for sleeping.
The plan for tomorrow is to reunite with Peter for lunch at Hyde Park...
That's it for plans for now...more to come...
He had a great sendoff at the Troy City Dock this morning around 7:30 (contest entries will be adjusted for the extra 1 1/2 hours). Many friends and relatives were there to cheer him on. He was surprised to see some friends that had told him that they couldn't make it - the Ashtons and the Rooneys.
