BAR HARBOR, MAINE
Labor Day Weekend
Sept. 2nd - 5th, 2011
We live pretty close to Maine, but just had never made the trip. So when some friends asked us to join them for a camping trip we were all in! We heard of this coo place called Bar Harbor, it's a small island on the coast of Maine. (Just FYI, It's actually where Jake worked all summer and did bike tours!) It's so beautiful!!!
|
This is where we camped, but on a little bit more grassy area! :) |
|
The joys of camping: frisbee, lounging, and taking walks along the shoreline. |
|
Here is the crew. Horrible Pic, I know, but I wanted to add a group photo |
This place is famous for biking so there are biking trails everywhere!
|
We rented bikes for 4 hours, strapped Zoey on and biked all around Acadia National Park |
|
Check out the scenery! |
So Matt and I had literaly just written a bucket list a few weeks back and on mine is "Try Lobster while in Maine." So here is Matt and I trying Lobster! I practically had to twist his arm to try it with me!
|
My face says it all, and check out Zoey's face too :) Ha ha She is like "what the heck is this thing and why is it so close to my face?" |
|
Here is the preparation. We didn't have to do the dirty work of preparing it all, which made it a little easier to eat. :) |
|
It wasn't as bad as I thought, but it wasn't that good either :) It may be an acquired taste. |
|
This is Sand Beach, and the Blow Hole in Acadia. How GORGEOUS, huh? |
Nothin beats a good camping trip with a bunch of good friends. The area was probably one of the most beautiful places that I have EVER been to! This trip was definitely a trip to remember and one that I would love to do again!
