Bar Harbour

Short driving day today, just 90 minutes down to Bar Harbour and we spent the day in Acadia National Park.  It really is a beautiful part of the world.  Lots of similarities to Nova Scotia.  We can hardly wait to get there now.  Just a few more days.  I'm typing this looking out over the ocean from the deck on our hotel room and thinking this is how work's going to be from now on.  Boats sailing by, a tour group of sea kayakers paddling lazily by.  Looking forward to lobster for dinner.  Warm and sunny summers, what could be better.

In Acadia, we did a couple of hours hike up Mount Gorman a mere 525ft above sea level but in the near 30C heat a reasonable effort.  I had hoped to climb the Beehive too but there were ladders up some parts so Sam would not have been able to cope.

Bar Harbour - That house is for sale!
Not Much Shade, but we made the most of it

The Beehive - You can see people climbing up
