Aug 9th-11th
Our time in Maine was both frustrating and satisfying. We
planned to take the coastal route on our way up to Acadia NP in order to
experience the quaint coastal towns and see some iconic lighthouses. Our plans
were thwarted by stop and go traffic-with an emphasis on the “stop.” We decided
to head inland for a faster route, which was a disappointment. However, Acadia
National Park was fabulous! The Precipice Trail was a great experience for
everyone. It is known to be the most challenging trail in the park, and Wendy
did it with style and ease. The views were breathtaking, and the trail was
interesting at every turn. NOT for those who are afraid of heights! As a bonus,
there were wild berries everywhere. I’m not sure whether we burned more
calories or consumed more in berries.
We also got to hang out on the rocky beach, investigate some
tide pools full of ocean life, eat lobster in all forms (whole, bisque, stew,
roll, ravioli…), and do some shopping and exploring in Portland.
