All good things must come to an end, of course. Thursday morning was our day to pack it up and head towards home. First, a picture from Wednesday that I forgot to insert… the classic “pose for a picture with the National park sign” shot. 🙂 We drove by these signs repeatedly during the week… Continue reading Day 13: Acadia to Scranton, PA
Day 12= our last full day in Acadia!! We arrived Saturday and had some afternoon/evening time, then Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. So about 4 1/2 days. This was, I think, just about the right amount of time to do the park justice. Of course, with 100+ miles of hiking trails, we barely scratched the… Continue reading Day 12: Acadia National Park
Whoops, I guess I finally hit the wall! 😆 I was doing so great keeping this updated everyday, but then I was up until after midnight on Tuesday night and didn’t have it in me to post the next morning. Picking up where I left off… So Tuesday was our 3rd full day in Acadia.… Continue reading Day 11: Acadia National Park
I have to start off with a quick note of thanks to the weather gods. We have had perfect blue skies here in Acadia so far, and I’m just so thankful! (I think some clouds might be moving in for tonight/tomorrow.) But the weather has been just beautiful. It’s just like the cherry on top.… Continue reading Day 10: Acadia National Park
Yesterday was our first full day in Acadia NP. We headed out around 8:45 a.m. (Everyone says that to beat the crowds, you should hit the trails super early. However, in general we are not really “hit the road super early” type vacationers. What can I say. We are not typically “go to bed at… Continue reading Day 9: Acadia National Park
On vacation I always start to lose track of what day it is, but I think yesterday was Saturday. Since we arrived later/after dark to our hotel in Belfast, we had decided we would take a slow morning to enjoy the place. Unfortunately, we again had a foggy morning, so the ocean views were obscured… Continue reading Day 8: Belfast, Maine to Acadia
It got a bit late Thursday night in Portland before we made it back to the hotel after dinner. I don’t think we went to bed until midnight at least. So, we were a little slower moving Friday morning than originally planned. 🙂 After hotel breakfast/packing up we hit the road north up the coast… Continue reading Day 7: Coastal Maine- Bath, Boothbay Harbor, Pemaquid Point
Thursday morning we checked out of the condo by 10:30. The only drawback to staying in AirBnbs is that there is a bit more work to do before check out. (Take out trash, start dishwasher, strip beds, etc.). No big deal though. I’m glad we had a condo for at least a couple nights of… Continue reading Day 6: Portland, Maine
So let’s see, where did I leave off… Oh yes, our foggy/drizzly morning. I was initially a little unsure how the day would go, if the weather continued like this, because pretty much everything we wanted to do was outside! Fortunately, it did clear up. We got a later start to the day as a… Continue reading Day 5: White Mountains, New Hampshire
Day 4 was our last morning in Vermont, moving on to New Hampshire in the afternoon. It was a really great day. Outdoors all day long!! Highlights: Quechee Gorge * After breakfast/check out from out hotel, we headed just across the street to the Quechee Gorge. We had to hike a short maybe 1/2 mile… Continue reading Day 4: Quechee to North Conway, New Hampshire
GRATEFUL KAE
