Doin it "Lobstah Style"

The riding on the northern coast of Maine is just beautiful. Open roads, no traffic, tree-lined roadways, like what it used to be in the back country of San Diego County 30 years ago.

We pulled into Bar Harbor and quickly located a "Lobster Pound". We each had a lobster sandwich before we found a gem in the "Wonderview Inn"!

We checked into room 49, above the office in a corner room with a great 180 degree view of the harbor. 

Figuring we needed an overview of the area, we took a 50 minute airplane tour of Bar Harbor and the surrounding lighthouses!

Following our plane ride, we rode through Acadia National Park ending up on Cadillac Mountain, the highest point on the eastern coastline. 

Those who view the sunrise from Cadillac are the first in America to see it appear. We did not feel the necessity at rising at 4:30 am to join the crowd!

When we saw the above picture, we wondered what the person taking the picture thought about what was in Micky's pocket!

Then it was off to Boothbay Harbor. We stumbled across the "Harbour Towne Inn", a quaint B&B right on the water just a block or two from town. 

then it was across the footbridge to the "Boothbay Lobster Wharf" where we chose,  cooked and cosumed 3 live lobsters and a JUMBO lobster roll!

Our time at Boothbay was wonderful. Turned out to be the perfect day due in large part to the people we spent time with. Stephanie was a wonderful hostess and made us feel like family. Once again, garbed in an apron, Micky was put to work in the kitchen!

Thank you so much Stephanie, we will be praying for you and your family!

Wells was our last stop on the main coastline. We just had to have one more lobster!  Lords Lobster House was our next stop where we consumed mass quantities of seafood!

Next stop, Beantown. Go Sox!
