Bar Harbor, Maine

We had a terrific lunch of crab cakes and blueberry pie overlooking the ocean then Basil found a nice place to sit in downtown Bar Harbor while I went shopping. There were hummingbirds in those pink flowers but we got only very blurry pictures of them.

Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park is the first place in the U.S. to see the sunrise for much of the year.

The little tiny pictures at the bottom of the page is my account of the bus driver with the cantankerous personality for which Mainers are famous. He was not shy to tell us we were 10 minutes late getting back to the bus.

First thing in the morning,we had a hike in the forest.

And then a hike by the ocean in the afternoon.

There is a kayaker in the ocean with no shirt. He may have been a little chilly down there. It is always interesting to me to get to know about our guides. They tend to have advanced degrees and a lot of different experiences. This young lady was a former school teacher and had lived all over the world. I would love to try that job, but I guess there would not be much demand for it in San Angelo.
