Vacation here I come!
It is finally here, the last hour of work before vacation — hooray! I have so been looking forward to my trip to Bar Harbor, Maine that I can hardly stand it! I still have to do all the laundry, pack, get the dog ready to visit her sister, arrange for my neighbor, the pet sitter extraordinaire, to take care of the cats.
I also love to put out clean towels and clean sheets on my bed before I travel so when I come back exhausted, I can fall right into bed!
The following is a list of things I hope to do while I’m away:
- READ! where I’ll be doing all my reading –>
- mini golf
- play scrabble
- eat lobster
- READ!
- rent bicycles to ride the trails in Acadia National Park
- clipper ship ride
- READ!
Here is a list of my favorite places to go in Bar Harbor:
I love everything about Bar Harbor and Acadia, but my most loved thing is the smell of the ocean — is that weird? Maybe in a past life I was a mermaid or a sea captain.
We will be driving to Bar Harbor, which takes about 6 hours, because I love to travel on Route 1 and see all the coastal towns. I especially like to stop in Camden, Maine for a snack and watch the boats come into the docks. Camden also has a great, busy library with a fun outdoor children’s courtyard.
Don’t forget to visit the library to see what kind of post cards I send! While I am away and not able to check my favorite library related websites — why don’t you do it for me:
