Bar Harbor, Maine

The promised land! We pulled into Bar Harbor just as the rain stopped. As the sun peeked out of the clouds, the magnificent views of this "fairy tale" harbor began to reveal themselves. We had been here about 5 years ago as a stop on our Boston cruise. It was enchanting then and it is just as enchanting now!




As the sun came out, the winds picked up. The winds are constant out of the southeast and are gusting to about 30 knots. Any leaves remaining on the trees are now finding themselves on the sidewalks and in the shops.

We are staying at the historic Bar Harbor Inn (www.barharborinn.com). The views from our room are directly out into the bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The views are breath taking!

Tomorrow, we plan on going to the Acadia National Park and up to the top of Cadillac Mountain. Tune back in for results of this experience.
