Farewell, Maine, and All Your Beauty

We were taking in the last bit of Maine's coast as this would be our last day in Maine and heading to Massachusetts. And although it was the last bit of this state, it certainly wouldn't be the least. We headed to Old Orchard Beach, where it reminded us a bit of the Florida coast, and even had sandy beaches and an amusement park. We really enjoyed taking in the beach as it was almost empty, but observed the workers covering up the rides at the amusement park, closing up for the season.


We headed further down the coast and saw in our tour book that there is a spouting rock in Kennebunkport, along with one other attraction that we would like to see, so that's where we headed. Once again, the town didn't disappoint, and there were tour buses, so the town was still busy with people.


We weren't there at the right time of the tide, but we think this could be the spouting rock.


And last but certainly not least, is the Summer home of former president, George H. W. Bush.

Nice, eh?

And a nice tribute to our 41st president.


Our last town we wanted to stop in is Ogunquit, a town our friends Catherine and Joey recommended for us to visit, and I can see why they loved it so much.


Didn't get a lot of pictures, but enjoyed walking around this charming town.

We are now in Falmouth, MA for a week, and I may or may not be really enjoying a condo with a nice bed and a hot shower any time I want. We did get a welcome from these fellas while we were driving around.


I guess Key West has their chickens, Cape Cod can have their turkeys.

We will be enjoying a day in Boston tomorrow on The Freedom Trail.
