You can google farms that also give tours. If you're making plans to come upstate, Lake Placid is also great for kids as you can visit the Olympics sites and do the bobsled run. <br /><br />The fish migrations are very disturbing.

This sounds so exotic and historic to me, like something out of an old book. <br />I sincerely hope that the next generation gets a chance to do this.
