Acadia NP, ME

We did the Acadia NP loop road drive on a perfect weather day, then stopped in Bar Harbor (Ba Ha-ba, to the locals) browsed the tacky tourist traps and had lunch.  Following lunch, Trish set up her folding bike, and ducked into a shady alley for a super quick transformation into BIKE BABE!  She headed off to ride the Park's carriage trails; Ranger and I, slackers that we are, went home and took a nap.


Frenchman Bay,one of the view stops along loop road.

Sand Beach, the only real beach in the park.  Ya gotta admire these Maine folks for their originality and imagination in naming things.  Wow!



On top of Cadillac Mountain, great views and rocks.



I'm liken' the lichen.

    What a wonderful time. It sounds just perfect. I can almost smell the sea breeze. When we were in Acadia the fog was so thick that we could not see the edge of the parking lot, let alone the islands. We laugh at being on "the highest point on the eastern seabord" and seeing nada, nothing, zilch. I do have a cute cap that says "Bar Harbor", however.
