Maine: Part 1

I can't believe it is already July! Where did the summer go!?! Last month we spent 8 days in the beautiful state on Maine. It was nice to escape the Philadelphia heat and be able to go hiking as often as we wanted. Here are a few photos from our trip...there will be more tomorrow:) xoxo

On the top of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park, overlooking the town of Bar Harbor.

Seeing lighthouses everywhere was my expectation of Maine. This is definitely not the case. There are very few that can be easily seen and most of the others you really need to talk with a local and get the back road directions in order to find them. Here is only one of the 2 lighthouses we saw on our trip.  

Lobster buoys are everywhere...in the water and out.

While shopping in Bar Harbor we found this great woodworking store...I loved their logo printed on the wood tags.

Jordan's Pond House in Acadia National Park is known for its popovers and tea. We were lucky to have a beautiful day to sit outside and eat our popovers and enjoy the view.

Old school while driving through the lobster fishing towns.

One of our favorite and most difficult hikes was the Beehive Trail. It was basically straight up the mountain so there were plenty of cables to help us up. It is so worth it once you get the amazing view on the top.
