5 - 24 - 22 Went on a roadtrip from May 17 to May 24 to Maine. Stopped in Ogunquit, Me, is a quaint town on the coast, lovely, no fast food places and has one on the best sand beach on the coast of Maine. Day a day there and nite, walked the Marginal Way path, is 3 miles long on the ocean side and ends in Perkins Cove, where there are lots of restaurants, especially seafood. Next, head to BarHarbor and Acadia National Park, is a our 3rd vist to Acadia, always a treat and walked the 6 miles around Eagle Lake, took about 3 hrs. to do, very scenic. Did the stops on the Loop road to Sand Beach, Blow Hole, Jordon's Pond and Cadillac Mountain, 10,000 ft high, very windy. After 3 nites, went to Lubec, very low-key at this time of year. Only 2 restaurants were open, along with a few deli's. Is very close to Canadian Internationl Bridge and a State Park over to the Canadian side. Liked very much. Went to Cobscook State Park, which is 888 miles in area and Quaddy State Park, where the eastern most lighthouse is. Walked the coastal path, rocky and beautiful. Back to Ogunquit for a half-way point before back to Asbury Park. Went to the Ogunquit beach, lovely, lots of people sitting on the beach or walking oceanside. Enjoyed dinners at the Fisherman's Wharf in Lubec, mussels and haddock, Thai food in Bar Harbor, Pizza in Ogunquit. Enjoy the week's road trip and being in nature.
