Maine-Whale Watching and Lobster!

Last Maine post! On Tuesday, we started the day with a last walk around Eagle Lake in Acadia. Really beautiful and 6 miles of carriage roads. What a beautiful way to start the day!






We went into Bar Harbor later that afternoon...saw these cute cottages!



horse drawn carriage!

Cousin David and his family had gone on a sunset whale watch earlier in the summer, so we took his advice and embarked on one ourselves!


They told us it would be 25 degrees colder on the water and they were right!

Sister got some much better pictures. I will post them soon, hopefully! But here's a teaser...


This is the flipper of a whale. They sometimes slap the water and it's called "flipper flapping"-no joke!


Gorgeous sunset on the way back in!




The New York Yacht Club was in town, so we passed some beautiful boats. 


It's been on my bucket list, to have a lobster dinner in Maine! Aunt JoAnne and Uncle Craig were so gracious to make that possible! It was amazing...very tasty (what wouldn't be with all that butter?!) and a fun (and slightly gross) deconstruction process. I definitely faced his eyeballs away from me when I pulled his legs off...ewww!


A huge "Thank you!" to Aunt JoAnne and Uncle Craig for being such wonderful hosts!
