More Bar Harbor and to Boston (Lowell actually)

On Saturday we went to Bernard and the west side of the island. I had forgotten to take the battery with the camera, so we don't have any pictures that day! We did a tour around the island, visiting Southwest Harbor, Northeast Harbor, and driving back around to Bar Harbor. We also had a chance to walk to Bar Island, an island just off Bar Harbor. You can walk there during low tide, but during high tide, the passage is covered by many feet of water. Most of the islands and bays look very different during high and low tides.

Sunday we had the camera again. This time we went on a trip outside of the island, visiting Deer Isle and St9ngington. Stonington is a small town on the end of Deer Isle and is a lobster working town. Very different feel than Bar Harbor. Picture below shows part of the dock in low tide.

We also took a photo of the boats on the harbor.

We grabbed some ice cream and lunch on the way back to Bar Harbor, where we hung out for the evening.

The next day (today), we decided not to go back to Bar Harbor, but hung around in Ellsworth for breakfast. We got back to the airport and took off for Concord, NH. It was a bit cloudy, so on the way out, we took some pictures of the Simpson's house and some scenery.

The photo below shows Mount Desert Island.

More clouds and scenery photos.

After a short flight with a tailwind (groundspeed of 207 miles per hour!), we landed in Concord, New Hampshire. We god a ride from a very nice electrician who overheard us needing a ride to the capital bulding. The pictures were our 20th capital!


After a quick hop to Nashua airport, we rented a car and drove to Ari's house, where we are staying until we go home.
