The Perfect Vacation !!

Looks like everybody is back to blogging with the twenty tag questions.Keerthi tagged me and I was glad I did it after a peaceful vacation.

Our trip this time was for 4 days with Toto taking off from work for 2days.It was nice.We left Friday early morning to Newhampshire. First stop was the Hobo rail road,which we have been waiting to do since long time.It was the most boring train ride I have ever been.The only thing I liked was the Hersheys Sandwich Icecream on the train.Then we went thru kancamagus highway in the White mountains.With our new gadget the NIKON D80,we shot few pics. After lunch we went to Franconia Notch Park.We enjoyed the fall colors.The leaves were in the yellowish stage. It was almost evening by the time we started to Maine.I was looking forward to see Maine since I didnt explore much on our Penebscot river rafting trip.We booked the Seacroft Inn at Barharbor,Maine.I would recommend this to anybody who wants to visit Barharbor and Acadia.We stayed at this beautiful inn which was owned by a cute couple.Her name is Bunny too and she makes delicious muffins.

We relaxed the night and woke up late next morning.Saturday.First stop was Acadia National Park.Drove through Park Loop Road and reached Cadillac Mountain, which at 1,530 feet is the highest point on the U.S. Atlantic coast.Lunch was at a Thai place.Siam Orchid,the owners name is Hatsana.Steamy food in the cold weather.Yummy !!After lunch,we roamed around Bar Harbor and bought some sovenirs.

Next morning,Sunny went around early morning before the sun even rose to shoot the first rays of sun touching US. Crazzy !! Woke up late around and by the time we got ready it was 10.00 a.m.Had a hearty breakfast and we went to rent scooters.That was the best part.I had the red scooter and Toto had the yellow one.The max speed on it was 25.They were similar to the bajaj sunnys we drove in India.We covered Sieur de Monts Spring Area, Bubble Pond.It was awesome scenic around there.Will post a pic.The lake where we stood had two mountains which were shaped like a bubble and so the name Bubble Pond was given to it.We hiked the way to Bubble Pond and were quite tired by the time we returned. Headed towards the Bass Harbor Light House. Posed for few pics.Later that night we went to Geddys for dinner.BTW,Maine is famous for Lobster and the Moose.Finally,I had Lobster in my noodles.We had a few Margaritas and we sat on the bench on the main street.

The trip was over almost and we had to return the next day.We started back home saying goodbye to Maine.We stopped at Pemaquid Point,Bristol on the return trip.On the whole,we had a great trip,good food and rejuvenated ourselves with all the oxygen from the mountains.
