Day 2 - Saturday 26 July 2014 - Albany, NY - Camping@LakeGeorge and enduring the rainy night!!!!

Headed off to camping with friend Mukesh's family at Lake George. Though putting all the camping items to mini van took another 1+ hr, we finally got off to start at around 3 pm and reached near Lake George, NY and looked for the campground.

Though the board showed no vacancy and there were 2 other cars in line before us, Mukesh insisted we check with the campsite office person to see if there are any campsites available....and what a luck....we got the last one!!!!. It was unbelievable in 2 ways. 

First we had not noticed campground so close to Lake George though we had been there several times there. Second was that we just happen to get the last campsite !!!!. 

Since this was very close to downtown and all food joints are there including Indian food, cooking trouble was solved. Next we shopped for few supplies, firewood, potato etc 







Campfire night was fun and we lasted 1/2 hr past midnight and then headed off to our tents.
And....1/2 hr later...Heavy rain started hitting our tents and kept us awake with its tup tup sound of rain drops over the tent. Add to that, I had forgotten to pick up the extra tarp for under the tent...so it was trying to make the best spot at center so that water could run off from sides. Though the rain continued pouring and rain started making all its try to enter to my tent...my sleeping bag saved me from that. And after all that rain,...felt the need to go to rest room...when it is still raining...somehow managed it to go then.
