| − | == Getting to the Albany Airport ==
| + | #REDIRECT [[Albany International Airport]] |
| − | Do not, I repeat, do ''not'' follow mapquest.
| |
| − | Start out byy going around the Williamstown traffic circle, taking Rt. 7 South. Continue on Rt. 7 for several miles, then proceed to get on Rt. 2 West (towards Troy). Continue on this for quite a while, until you get past the town of Grafton in New York state. Look out for a sighn for Rt. 278. The turnoff will be after a school and a Stewart's shop. Stop and get ice cream if you like. Continue down all of 278 until you reach Rt. 7. Note the weird steeple of the Gilead Lutheran Church on your right side. Remember it; you'll turn off when you see it onto 278 coming back.

| − | Continue on Rt. 7 for a looong way. You'll go through Troy, then down a large hill. It'll divide towards the base into two different routes. Take the right lane to 787/7. Continue on Rt. 7. back up the valley. At the top, keep to the left and keep going. You'll merge onto Rt. 87 South. Do not go to Latham (that means, do not follow where 7 now goes, or you will end up in Latham. Do not get on 87 north (unless you have a hunkering to go to Montreal). Continue on Rt. 87 until you get to exit 4. There should be signs for the airport. Follow them by getting off the highway, turning left at the light, then right at the next light. Continue for about 2 miles, keeping to the right when the highway divides. Follow the signs to your appropriate parking option.

| − | Also, the Albany airport is not in Albany. It is in Colonie. If you find yourself in Albany, get on 787 north until you hit the exit 7 west.

| − | == Getting to Crossgates Mall ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Follow all of the same directions, except do not get off at exit 4 on Rt. 87. Keep going. Take the Crossgates Mall exit (3, I believe) which will take you directly take you to the mall. Although beware if it is a school holiday, a Saturday, or the month of December. Do not take this exit, as it backs up. Take the next one. At the light, take a right, then at the next lihgt take another right. Continue down that street until you see the Crossgates signs on the right and then turn right into the mall.
