Day 3 - Breakfast at Sloatsburg Travel Plaza -> West Point Academy

We would be shopping today at the woodbury outlet. Since the outlet opens at 1030am and West Point Academy was along the way, the tour made a stop there. This is not included in local itinerary.
Breakfast was Burger King at Sloatsburg Travel Plaza, a rest stop along the highway to West Point Academy.
It was a very nice and pretty neat mall with quite a number of shops.
See http://www.thruway.ny.gov/travelers/travelplazas/tp-sloatsburg.html.
Soon we arrived at West Point Academy. Admission was US$12 per person excluding tips.







Nice houses and churches in the little old, peaceful and tranquil town area opposite the Academy. The actual town looked nicer than the photos







Cadet Chapel

There is no airconditioning in the chapel but it remains cool even during the hot summer.
The chapel is very neat and orderly, it reminds me of discipline.






Parade Square and Washington Hall -- The Cadet Dining Area, with Statue of George Washington in front and the Cadet Chapel on the hill above.

Civil War Memorial




Nice view of Hudson River
