Home movie of family trip to New York, including a visit to the United States Military Academy in West Point.
Contains various scenes at the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York: shots of the equestrian statue of George Washington, soldiers marching in formation, children playing on cannons, views of the Hudson River valley. Cut to views taken from a car on a scenic drive along the Hudson. At a roadside attraction, the family poses for a portrait taken in a mirror, then attends two animal shows: at the first, a chimpanzee in top hat and cane rides a scooter; and at the second, a performing elephant balances on a narrow beam.
