MAINE!

We got a kick out of this welcome
screen on our Google Maps

We got up early to head for Maine. I love no place on the planet the way that I love Maine (ok, maybe Vermont now, too). We decided to head to Ogunquit which is a little town outside of where we stay, York. We stopped at a highly rated breakfast place which was excellent save for the fact that they put CINNAMON IN A BLUEBERRY MUFFIN. This seems like a criminal offense. Honestly. Who ruins a Maine blueberry muffin by adding cinnamon to the batter? Tragic.

What could have been amazing...
ruined by cinnamon
We opted to take a walk after breakfast along the shore. It was gorgeous.
Just strolling along..

That's better

Petefish.
Maine is pretty much the only place where a B&B is fun at our age. We'd stayed here once before and decided to return. The location is great and the breakfast is always amazing.
Ready to leave the B&B for date night
This time, since we were a little outside of season, the B&B had a deal going with a local restaurant to get dinner, too! You know we love a deal!
Lobster bisque. YUM!

A caprese salad for the ages!

Another salad!

Seafood soup

Fish stuffed with crab

Cheesecake!
It was so. much. food. Luckily I did not like the dessert so that was a bit of a saving grace. As I mentioned their season is a bit short so it was a little chilly during our visit. That didn't bother us. We went out to walk a couple of miles in the morning and just soaked in the ocean air.

A little slice of heaven

Obviously Jackson was having a good
looking day!! *whistles*

Crossing the new pedestrian bridge

A shot of our B&B

No trip to Maine is complete
without a lobster!

The lobster chairs were a nice touch

We are always looking at sailboats...
Our great adventure was coming to a close. We covered a ton of ground. We had a lot of fun. We love going out and exploring new places and visiting wonderful ones again. I feel blessed to have had so much time together to reconnect and enjoy.
