Acadia National Park is another winner. The rugged, rocky Maine coast is very picturesque. (Brenda, if you want to paint vistas; this could be the place for you!) The beautiful weather added to the day - I even wore shorts. We took the shuttle around the park. We could get off wherever we wanted and hop back on. We packed a lunch and ate at Sand Beach. It was the only place on the ocean that wasn't rocky. The sand was coarse and the water was ice cold. In late afternoon, we went into the quaint town of Bar Harbor. It was very busy as a huge cruise ship was in. Cruise ship people can fill up a small town in a big way. We decided to try a Maine lobster bake for supper. You sit at picnic tables with others and they serve it in all in a big pan (like a cake pan). A good end to a good day.

Comments from Eldon: Acadia was very scenic with the rugged coast line. More rugged than the West Coast but the views weren't as spectacular. It would have been cooler had I seen this before the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone, but this was beautiful nonetheless. Cadillac Mountain, the highest peak, is only just over 1,500 feet (no altitude issue there). The lobster dinner was succulent - you get to pick out your own lobster - 2.75 pounder had my name on it - it was huge and tasty.

Comments from Larry: I spent the day in the camper. But I found a spot of sunshine and was cozy for my long nap.
