Thumbs up

Thanks for all the info & help....but even though, I hate driving in city traffic....decided to drive down.
It's too early to leave from Fonda to get the train from Poughkeepsie. Hopefully, I don't get lost!

I assume you know the best way to drive?

I would take 87 to the Pallisades, to the GW Bridge, to the Cross Bronx, to the Throgs Neck Bridge, to the Cross Island, and get off at Exit 26 ( which is Belmont ).

Got these from Yahoo....look right?

Take exit #13S/PALISADES PKWY SOUTH/NEW JERSEY onto PALISADES INTERSTATE PKY S - go 18.6 mi

Take the HUDSON TER. exit onto I-95 N toward GW BRIDGE (Toll applies) - go 7.5 mi

Take Right fork onto I-295 S toward THROGS NECK BR (Portions toll) - go 4.4 mi

Take exit #8/CROSS IS PKWY SOUTH onto CROSS ISLAND PKY S (Toll applies) - go 7.6 mi

Take exit #26B/HEMPSTEAD AVE EAST/BELMONT RACETRACK onto HEMPSTEAD TPKE(RT-24) - go 0.6 mi

Arrive at 2150 HEMPSTEAD TPKE, ELMONT, on the Left BELMONT PARK

You might want to avoid the Hempstead Parkway confusion and take the first Belmont exit ( I think it's 26D ). But, otherwise you've got it.

Going home I would go another way.....else you'll be stuck for an hour on the Cross Bronx.
